DOJ: Hunter Biden spent millions on hotels, drugs, and women, neglecting taxes
Hunter Biden Indicted on Criminal Tax Charges: A Tale of Excess and Deception
The Department of Justice’s indictment of Hunter Biden has revealed a shocking story of lavish spending and willful tax evasion. Special counsel David Weiss has meticulously outlined how the president’s son, despite having the means to pay, deliberately failed to fulfill his tax obligations for four years.
According to Weiss, Biden lived a life of opulence from 2016 to 2019, earning handsomely and indulging in extravagant expenses. His personal outlays of approximately $4.9 million during this period included stays at luxurious four-star hotels, encounters with female escorts, splurges on luxury cars, and even over a million dollars in cash withdrawals, which coincided with his struggle with drug addiction.
Instead of fulfilling his tax responsibilities, Biden’s money was directed towards everything but his taxes, as Weiss pointed out. The indictment charges Biden with three felonies and six misdemeanors, including failing to pay $1.4 million in taxes for the years 2016 to 2019, neglecting to file taxes for 2017 and 2018, and submitting false and fraudulent tax returns for 2018.
During the years in question, Biden amassed over $7 million in gross income through various foreign business deals. The indictment provides a glimpse into some of his expenses from 2016 to 2019, which are nothing short of astonishing:
- $1.6 million on cash withdrawals
- $683,212 on payments to various women
- $188,960 on adult entertainment
- $397,530 on clothing and accessories
- $48,012 on entertainment and sports
The 2018 tax year proved to be particularly problematic, with Biden failing to file his tax returns on time and subsequently making false deductions to alleviate his tax burden, as alleged by Weiss.
Allegations Surrounding the 2018 Charges
The indictment highlights several allegations against Biden related to the 2018 charges:
- Biden allegedly claimed nearly $400,000 on his tax forms for “business-related travel” despite having none.
- Biden allegedly failed to categorize numerous expenses as “personal” on his tax forms, including a $1,500 expense on an exotic dancer at a strip club. He deceitfully described the transaction, made through Venmo, as “artwork” despite receiving no artwork from the dancer.
- Biden allegedly paid $11,500 for two nights with an escort but did not declare it as a personal expense.
- Biden allegedly claimed a $3,852 payment to rent a Lamborghini as a business expense, even though he drove it in 2018 “until his Porsche was shipped from the East Coast.”
- Biden allegedly falsely claimed to have spent $86,000 on “wages.” According to Weiss, these funds were actually used to provide financial support and health care benefits to three women with whom Biden had romantic or sexual relationships, as well as a fourth woman related to one of them.
- When accountants requested information about his 2018 expenditures in 2020, Biden allegedly failed to mention his drug habit, which would have raised concerns about his substantial “business expenses” for that year.
In his memoir, Beautiful Things, Biden candidly admitted to his crack cocaine addiction during 2018, describing how it consumed his life. He confessed to pouring money into a circle of individuals involved in illicit activities, all with his approval.
Despite claiming to have achieved sobriety by mid-2019, Weiss alleges that Biden’s extravagant lifestyle persisted well beyond that time. The indictment does not explicitly name Biden but describes how Kevin Morris, an entertainment lawyer, paid $1.2 million on his behalf in 2020 to sustain his lavish way of life while his taxes remained unpaid. Morris covered expenses such as renting a luxurious house in Venice Beach for $200,000 and making $11,000 in car payments for Biden’s Porsche.
As concerns grew about the potential political fallout during his father’s presidential campaign, Morris, a prominent Democratic donor, also assisted Biden in settling his tax debts.
Biden’s lawyer, Abbe Lowell, has defended his client, stating that he paid his taxes, along with interest and penalties, two years ago. Lowell deems the indictment unfair, claiming that Weiss succumbed to immense political pressure from Republicans, reneging on a plea agreement that would have allowed Biden to plead guilty to only two tax misdemeanors.
Lowell emphasizes that Biden’s indulgences during the years mentioned in the indictment occurred during the depths of his addiction and should not define him as a tax felon.

But one thing is clear: the indictment against Hunter Biden is a stark reminder that no one is above the law, regardless of their familial connections or political status.
