Hunter Biden fiercely defended his father, former President Joe Biden, in a teaser for an upcoming appearance on Candace Owens’ podcast.
While the full episode is scheduled to drop Thursday, May 21, the snippet teased several of Hunter’s pointed comments, including his perspective on why his father allegedly faced bipartisan pressure to abandon his 2024 re-election campaign.
In the teaser shared on social media, Hunter responded to Owens’ claim that politics is corrupt, saying, “Something’s changed, Candace.” He added, “It’s not left or right. The D.C. elite of the left, they crushed my dad because he was never part of that club. He was never part of the Epstein class.”
References to Epstein and High-Profile Figures
Hunter’s reference to the “Epstein class” alludes to a group of powerful men photographed in the Jeffrey Epstein files, including President Donald Trump, former President Bill Clinton, Microsoft founder Bill Gates, rocker Mick Jagger, and the late King of Pop Michael Jackson.
In addition to criticizing those with past ties to Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell’s trafficking network, Hunter also criticized President Trump’s actions in the Middle East, particularly under Israel’s alleged influence.
He further commented on the assassination of conservative podcaster Charlie Kirk, expressing disdain for decisions made by political figures linked to Trump.
“You know one thing [Joe Biden] didn’t do? He didn’t greenlight to turn Gaza into a Trump golf course with the maitre d being Jared Kushner,” Hunter remarked, directly calling out the husband of Ivanka Trump.
Praise for Candace Owens
Hunter Biden also commended Candace Owens for challenging Trump, his administration, and the U.S. government. Owens had suggested Israel was partly responsible for Charlie Kirk’s death, and Hunter responded, “The level of disloyalty, or fear — I don’t know what it is … and the criticism of you for asking the questions for someone who is like a brother to you? It’s like, ‘what the eff are you talking about?’ I listen to you and I go, ‘right on!’”
Owens promoted the upcoming episode on X, writing: “This Thursday. Hunter Biden and me.” In his own social media post, Hunter stated: “I’m Hunter Biden. You’ve never actually heard from me.”
Hunter Biden’s teaser appearance on Candace Owens’ podcast highlights his defense of his father against political pressure, criticism of Trump and high-profile figures tied to Epstein, and his praise for Owens’ questioning of government and foreign policy decisions.
The comments are set to generate further discussion when the full episode airs, offering the public a rare firsthand perspective from the former first son.
