President Joe Biden had an emotional reunion with his son on Tuesday, just hours after Hunter was found guilty of federal gun charges in a landmark case.
After he landed at the Delaware Air National Guard base around 4:40 p.m., Biden hugged his son on the tarmac before greeting his daughter-in-law, Melissa, and his grandchild, Beau.
According to a pool report, Biden spoke with his family for several minutes before, at one point, bending over to kiss the top of his grandson’s head. The family reportedly lingered for a few more minutes before taking separate cars to the Biden family’s Delaware home.
The embrace was the first time the father and son were seen together since Hunter faced trial for lying on an October 2018 gun application about using drugs. While the president did not attend the trial, First Lady Jill Biden sat behind her stepson almost daily in the packed Delaware federal courtroom—as well as dozens of friends and family eager to show their support.
“Jill and I love our son, and we are so proud of the man he is today,” Biden wrote in a Tuesday statement. “So many families who have had loved ones battle addiction understand the feeling of pride seeing someone you love come out the other side and be so strong and resilient in recovery.”
After Hunter’s conviction, where he now faces upwards of 25 years in prison and a $750,000 fine, his father’s press team announced that Biden would immediately helicopter to Delaware for the unplanned overnight visit with his family.
The verdict also came shortly before Biden spoke at a conference hosted by the Everytown for Gun Safety Action Fund in D.C. While the president called for tough rules on gun purchases, he did not mention his son or his conviction.
“I am more grateful today for the love and support I experienced this last week from Melissa, my family, my friends, and my community than I am disappointed by the outcome,” Hunter said after the conviction. “Recovery is possible by the grace of God, and I am blessed to experience that gift one day at a time.”

He said he love his son. He’s an irresponsible moron and a liar! When did he take his first step to coach him the drug evil? Hunter is not guilty. He was only follow his evil drug addicted punk, do as he do. I feel very bad for Hunter getting spoiled for all the free drug for all his addiction and this idiot did nothing about it. Now both pay the priceand ruin this nation reputation. Sure like to see this old FART-IN-THIEF go to prison, not Hunter.
He belongs in jail with sleepy joe and sleepy joes wife. Any other person would be in jail already.
Want to know what the lip readers say Joe and Hunter talked about.
Anyone who believes basement boy won’t step in and pardon him is crazy. Hunter will spill the entire Biden crime family and others and he can’t have that. A loving family doesn’t commit crimes abuse the system now do they? My family loves one another beyond words but we help those in trouble but don’t break any laws to do it. My children wouldn’t have committed crimes period. They grew up understanding: morals-values-honesty-family-religious freedom-obeying Ten Commandments-work hard for what you want-obey laws & constitution-loving America-truth best policy-stealing a crime-treason a crime-being a traitor a crime-respect police and other authorities-good from evil-and so on. It seems that those who are like the Biden crime families seem to never get held accountable for their crimes and why not. Hard working honest people deserve better then people like this saving their own before saving we the people. Will the real president spare basement boy also? Ya to save his own skin. Do you really think they committed voter fraud just to hide and cover up their crimes? No they are trying to get rid of all evidence except things keep being leaked out. Swamp has to much baggage and bought people or threatened them to do their dirty work. How else do you leave the government with ten times more money then had when they began. To attack opponents to coverup crimes is not working. Lying and playing games isn’t working either. See no new shiny balls will work ever again. Swamp trying to destroy opponents with fake crimes will come back to haunt them. Remember do the crime then do the time. Yet we are the ones who have been called every names in the book and treated like we owed them, no swamp take heed of this, you work for us not the other way around. I demand all these swamp criminals give back our money or put to death like laws say.
When will we see the Prosecution for ALL the Dirty Money the BIDENS have amassed… ALL of them!!! Lying on a gum app…. Ain’t nothin to “the rest of the Story!”
