Ohio Republican Representative Mike Turner alleges that Hunter Biden has become increasingly involved in White House affairs, prompting concerns about his influence on President Biden.
Hunter Biden's recent presence at a swanky Malibu, California restaurant has sparked questions about his growing involvement in White House affairs. As President Biden stumbles in his public appearances and faces calls to step down, the possibility of his son playing a significant role in the administration has raised eyebrows.
Rep. Mike Turner (R-Ohio) has been vocal in his concerns, stating that Hunter Biden may now be "running things" at the White House. He cites reports of Hunter's increased presence at meetings and events, raising questions about the extent of his influence on policy decisions.

Notably, Hunter Biden was spotted leaving Nobu, a trendy celebrity hotspot, shortly before President Biden was scheduled to deliver remarks at the NATO summit. The timing of his departure has led to speculation about possible coordination between father and son.
The concerns about Hunter Biden's influence come amid growing criticism of President Biden's mental acuity. Critics point to his recent gaffes, such as mistakenly referring to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy as "President Putin," as evidence of his declining cognitive abilities.

Other prominent figures, including author Stephen King and actor George Clooney, have also expressed concerns about Biden's fitness for office. Clooney wrote an op-ed in the New York Times titled "I Love Joe Biden. But We Need a New Nominee," arguing that Biden is no longer up for the rigors of the presidency.
