Biden Gets Drowned Out By Boos As He Tries To Speak With Reporters During Lake Tahoe Vacation

/in , , , , , , /by

President Joe Biden was drowned out by loud booing from a crowd in Lake Tahoe as he spoke with reporters Friday, video shows.

The onlookers booed Biden as he left a pilates class and spoke to reporters during his family vacation in Lake Tahoe. The Bidens, including first son Hunter Biden, are currently on a weeklong vacation to Lake Tahoe, staying at the home of billionaire climate activist and Democratic megadonor Tom Steyer.

“Have you seen Donald Trump’s mugshot yet?” a reporter asked the president. Former President Donald Trump had his mug shot taken at the Fulton County Sheriff’s Office after surrendering in Georgia on Thursday night. Trump and 18 others are facing charges for their alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election results in the state.

“I did see it on television,” Biden answered as he continued to receive loud booing from the crowd.

“What did you think?” the reporter asked.

“Handsome guy,” Biden said as the yelling continued.

As the Biden family vacations at Steyer’s multi-million dollar mansion in Nevada, the Department of Justice and House Republicans are continuing their investigations into the younger Biden. Hunter Biden pleaded not guilty in July to two tax misdemeanors, while the diversion agreement for his felony gun charge dissolved under scrutiny from Delaware U.S. District Judge Maryellen Noreika.

Officials launched an investigation into Steyer over his alleged violation of Vacation Home Rental (VHR) policies regarding the rental of his home to the Biden family. A local resident reportedly filed a claim earlier in August, alleging Steyer did not have a VHR permit. The complaint was “being researched,” VHR Program Manager Ernie Strehlow told the Daily Caller on Aug. 21.

Biden To Vacation With Hunter At Home Of Billionaire Climate Activist And Dem Megadonor

/in , , , , , , , , /by

President Joe Biden will be joined by his son, Hunter, as he embarks on yet another lengthy vacation at a property belonging to billionaire climate activist and Democratic megadonor Tom Steyer at Lake Tahoe, Nevada, according to multiple reports.

Biden has faced criticism for remaining largely silent on the wildfire disaster in Maui, Hawaii, and vacationing on the beach in Delaware. The president is renting Steyer’s home at “fair market value” through the remainder of the week, with Hunter and multiple other family members in attendance, according to multiple reports.

Steyer ran against Biden for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination, and withdrew from the race in February after placing third in South Carolina’s primary. The prominent climate activist threw his support behind Biden’s presidential bid months later.

The former candidate encouraged Biden to lean into more left-wing policies to combat climate change in his presidential bid and appeal to a younger electorate concerned with such issues, according to Politico. Steyer later met with Biden’s campaign to express interest about a role in his then-potential administration.

Biden and the First Lady arrived at the Lake Tahoe home late Friday evening, but are planning to visit the Hawaiian island devastated by wildfires on Monday. The president will then return to his vacation where he and his family will remain until next Saturday, according to Bloomberg.

The president drew backlash last week after appearing to respond with “no comment” when asked about the Maui disaster while relaxing on the beach in Delaware.

The Biden family vacation comes a week after U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland appointed David Weiss as special counsel to continue investigating Hunter. Weiss received sharp criticism for a plea deal between the Department of Justice (DOJ) and Hunter that included a pretrial diversion agreement, which would have immunized the president’s son from certain future prosecutions had it not collapsed.

Neither the White House nor Steyer immediately responded to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s requests for comment.
