Hunter Biden sends cease and desist letter to Trump, claiming his 'easy-to-trigger followers' might commit violence



Attorneys for Hunter Biden sent a cease and desist letter to former President Donald Trump on Thursday, demanding that he stop making public statements that might incite violence among his "easy-to-trigger" followers.

The letter comes after critics of the president's son speculated that a bag of cocaine found inside the White House might belong to Hunter Biden.

"I am sending this letter to make a demand that your client, former President Donald Trump, cease and desist from making public statements about my client which are both defamatory and likely to incite Mr. Trump's followers to take actions against Mr. Biden and which could lead to his or his family's injury," read the letter.

The letter went on to quote Trump's posts on social media and what they referred to as "thinly veiled calls to action to his easy-to-trigger followers."

Among those was a message from Trump expressing anger that Hunter Biden wasn't given a "death sentence" for charges related to tax crimes and lying on a gun license application.

The letter referenced an attack on House Speaker Nancy Pelosi of California and also an incident where a Jan. 6 defendant was found with guns and ammunition in a van near the Obama residence after Trump posted the address on social media.

Earlier on Thursday, law enforcement officials said the investigation into the cocaine found at the White House was closed and that they were unlikely to ever discover who left the bag.

Trump had responded previously on social media that there was no doubt the cocaine belonged to Hunter Biden and Joe Biden.

Hunter Biden has been mired in various scandals owing to his struggle with drug and alcohol addiction, including the birth of his child to a former stripper he reportedly met at a strip bar in Washington, D.C. He has since settled a child support lawsuit that also forbade the girl to carry the Biden surname.

Hunter Biden lashes out at Trump and denies Ukraine scandal allegations in new book



Hunter Biden lashes out at former President Donald Trump in a new book and denies the allegations of a Ukraine pay-for-play scandal that plagued his father's presidential campaign.

Biden's memoir is titled "Beautiful Things" and is scheduled to be released on April 6.

In the book, he says that the accusations surrounding his time on the board of the Ukrainian energy company Burisma are all false, according to The Guardian, which obtained a copy. Although he says he would not have done it again, he says the controversy is "remarkable for its epic banality."

The 51-year-old Biden also admits that his name on the board was meant to jab at Russian President Vladimir Putin, who has ordered military aggression against the country in the past.

"To put it more bluntly," Biden wrote, "having a Biden on Burisma's board was a loud and unmistakable f***-you to Putin."

He goes on to call Trump "a vile man with a vile mission," and says that the campaign to smear Biden was a way to get at his father, then-candidate Joe Biden.

"I became a proxy for Donald Trump's fear that he wouldn't be re-elected," Hunter Biden wrote in his book.

"He pushed debunked conspiracy theories about work I did in Ukraine and China, even as his own children had pocketed millions in China and Russia and his former campaign manager [Paul Manafort] sat in a jail cell for laundering millions more from Ukraine," he continued.

"None of that matters in an up-is-down Orwellian political climate," Biden wrote. "Trump believed that if he could destroy me, and by extension my father, he could dispatch any candidate of decency from either party, all while diverting attention from his own corrupt behavior."

Biden, a lawyer and businessman, also writes about the romantic relationship he had with the widow of his deceased brother, Beau Biden.

"Our relationship had begun as a mutually desperate grasping for love we both had lost," he wrote, "and its dissolution only deepened that tragedy."
