Wonders never cease. It seems that the press has finally decided to acknowledge that Joe Biden has disowned his grandchild.

As RedState reported earlier on Friday, the child in question was fathered by Hunter Biden and has been at the center of a long legal battle over child support. Specifically, the president’s son doesn’t want to pay it and has done everything he can to avoid his paternal responsibilities. According to The Daily Beast, the Biden family “seemingly wants nothing to do with the child,” who was not even allowed to be at the inauguration.

For all the talk about “decency” regarding Joe Biden, he sure seems to be a pretty indecent guy, doesn’t he? What kind of person disowns their own granddaughter, especially when it was Biden’s own son that has been such a degenerate? And to be sure, this isn’t just a matter of custody. According to past reports, Jill Biden didn’t even put up a stocking for their grandchild this past Christmas (or the one before that).

That’s hard for me to fathom. The Bidens have become fabulously wealthy, mostly on the backs of taxpayers, either directly or via influence peddling, but they can’t take care of their own grandchild? That makes no sense unless the explanation is that Joe and Jill Biden are just legitimately selfish, terrible people, and to be honest, I think that’s the explanation.

While the press has always painted Biden and his family as empathetic and relatable, they are incredibly vicious and dysfunctional below the surface. One look at Hunter Biden will tell you that, and the president himself is ruthless in a different way.

But as my colleague Jim Thompson shared in his piece, that ruthlessness isn’t over. The Daily Beast’s blurb links to a new story out of Arkansas revealing that Hunter Biden is still fighting to not have to pay child support and is opposing the child taking his last name.

The motion, filed by the attorney for Lunden Alexis Roberts, was made Tuesday in the 16th Circuit Court in Independence County in the paternity case against Hunter Biden.

It was one of four filings made in the case that was originally settled in March 2020. The case was reopened in September when Biden, the son of President Joe Biden, filed a motion to have his child support payments adjusted due to “substantial material change” in his “financial circumstances, including but not limited to his income.”

According to the filing submitted Tuesday by attorney Clinton Lancaster, the baby would “benefit from carrying the Biden family name,” and that the “Biden name is now synonymous with being well educated, successful, financially acute, and politically powerful.”

The filing cited President Biden, his wife Jill Biden and Hunter’s Biden’s late brother, Beau., as examples.

It says the Biden family remains “estranged from the child. To the extent this is misconduct or neglect, it can be rectified by changing her last name to Biden so that she may undeniably be known to the world as the child of the defendant and member of the prestigious Biden family.”

Maybe the press is finally waking up to who the Bidens really are. I’m probably being too kind, though. This is more likely to be a flash in the pan because the moment there are any electoral stakes, the mainstream media will dive back into the tank for the president again.

Here’s a final thought. There were a lot of conservatives of a certain type that insisted that Biden represented a return to normalcy and decency compared to Donald Trump. Has that been true? The answer is obviously no, and the Biden family may be one of the worst to ever inhabit the White House. Don’t forget who lied to you.
