As I wrote earlier, there are a lot of issues with the new legal strategy being taken by Hunter Biden.

But he may have one edge, that’s also a concern — connections.

Hunter Biden’s attorneys appealed to the Justice Department and the Delaware attorney general to pursue action against some of the people who were accessing or disseminating what they claimed was Hunter’s private data including computer repair man John Mac Isaac, Rudy Giuliani, and Steve Bannon.

But the people to whom Hunter’s attorneys appealed to open investigations are people who have connections to the Bidens.

In the case of the DOJ, the attorneys wrote to Matthew Olsen, the Assistant Attorney General for National Security Division.

Olsen held a number of positions in the Obama/Biden administration including general counsel of the National Security Agency and director of the National Counterterrorism Center.

While in the private sector, Olsen was a fellow at two left-leaning think tanks — the Center for a New American Security and the Center for American Progress — and wrote a number of op-eds critical of Trump and his administration.

One of those op-eds, published by Time during the 2016 election campaign, bore a provocative title: “Why ISIS Supports Donald Trump.“

He was confirmed to a present position basically by a party-line vote. Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) said he believed that Olsen no longer had credibility because of the partisan nature of his writings.

Then there was a letter to Delaware Attorney General Kathy Jennings.

Jennings was named to be a prosecutor in the state Department of Justice by Delaware Attorney General Beau Biden in 2011. Beau Biden is Hunter’s late brother. She’s a supporter of Joe Biden.

“I’ve known Joe, Jill, and the Biden family for most of my life,” Jennings wrote in a gushing Facebook post. “Joe is one of the kindest and most genuine people I’ve ever known … I’m choosing Joe because nobody understands more what it means to heal, and right now that’s what America needs.”

Even closer to the Biden family is Jennings’ chief deputy, Alexander Mackler, who served as Joe Biden’s press secretary in his final months as a US senator, managed Beau’s successful re-election campaign for state attorney general in 2010, and served as the elder Biden’s deputy counsel during his time as Barack Obama’s vice president.

According to the Post, Mackler is even a friend of Hunter Biden who messaged him and those messages show up on the Hunter laptop, including one that ended, “Gimme a call sometime we can catch up. Love you brother.”

Jennings and Mackler have even visited the White House.

Both Jennings and Mackler have maintained their connections to the president. Jennings visited the White House on Nov. 8, 2021, according to White House visitor logs. Mackler has visited four times, meeting with top Biden adviser Steve Ricchetti on March 28, 2022. He visited Biden in the White House residence on April 11, 2022, visitor logs show.

The NY Post contacted Jennings to see if she was going to recuse from the matter, but she did not respond to them when they contacted her on Thursday.

If the DOJ or the Delaware AG did pursue action, that would raise all kinds of questions that they were interceding to help Hunter or Joe Biden, particularly given the connections. Not to mention it’s highly questionable that there’s anything there to go after anyone for, given the laptop was allegedly abandoned. If anyone in the Biden administration were to intervene at this point to go after any of Joe Biden’s critics or political opponents it would raise a huge stink that would blow back on Joe Biden when he’s already dealing with the classified document scandal.
