Former US president Joe Biden 's son Hunter, in recent podcast appearances, took aim at various Democrats he believes contributed to his father's political downfall
During his appearance on Jaime Harrison's debut podcast episode, the former-president's son broadly criticised the Democratic party, suggesting their lack of loyalty to his father led to the 2024 electoral defeat for the Democrats.
In a subsequent three-hour podcast released Monday with YouTuber Andrew Callaghan, Hunter Biden targeted specific individuals, including Anita Dunn, David Axelrod, James Carville, Crooked Media founders, Jake Tapper and George Clooney , using strong language throughout, as reported by NYT.
He characterised Clooney as "a brand" and dismissed Carville's relevance. He critiqued Axelrod's career, the Crooked Media founders' success, and questioned Dunn's financial gains from the Democratic Party.

His harshest criticism targeted Jake Tapper, questioning the CNN host's influence and viewing figures. Most of those criticised chose not to engage with Hunter Biden's comments, who received a presidential pardon for three felony convictions last year.
Hunter Biden also claimed that his father had been administered Ambien to help with sleep after international travel, before the election debate. He addressed his father's age and performance, noting his apparent exhaustion during debates.
James Carville briefly responded, suggesting the Bidens had developed a perception of disrespect. Tommy Vietor of "Pod Save America" responded sarcastically on social media, whilst CNN defended Tapper's journalistic reputation. The podcasts were released one year after President Biden concluded his re-election campaign.
