Biden’s Son Gets Strange New Job

Here’s what America needs to know.

Hunter Biden, son of President Joe Biden, is back in the spotlight—this time not for foreign business dealings or federal investigations, but for an unexpected new role tied to the homeless crisis in Southern California.

In a recent interview on the “Channel 5” podcast, Hunter revealed that he has joined BASTA, a Los Angeles-based nonprofit that works to prevent evictions and promote tenants’ rights—with a special focus on undocumented immigrants.

“There’s an opportunity to help,” Biden said, claiming many people in L.A. are “getting the s— beat out of them.” He added, “I just started as Director of Development for BASTA.”

While Hunter framed his involvement as a way to “be of service,” many are questioning the deeper implications. BASTA is known for defending illegal immigrants from eviction and refusing federal funding, making it a lightning rod for criticism in an era where American homelessness, inflation, and crime are skyrocketing—particularly in Democrat-run cities.

“We’re the only group in Southern California that represents undocumented [immigrants],” Biden said, pointing to challenges facing migrants from El Salvador and Ukraine. “They lose income, and most have children. When a child becomes homeless, the road back to normalcy gets harder and harder.”

Critics say BASTA prioritizes non-citizens over struggling American families—including veterans, seniors, and low-income workers—many of whom are being priced out of housing in cities like L.A., where crime and taxes continue to rise.

Established in 2005, BASTA describes itself as a leading tenant advocacy group in Southern California. The organization operates multiple full-service offices and employs more than 15 attorneys. Known for its assertive legal tactics, BASTA takes every eviction case to a jury trial—a method that can significantly delay landlords from regaining control of their properties, even in situations involving missed rent payments or lease breaches.

“Cases are decided by juries—not just one judge,” the group says, touting more victories than all similar organizations in the region combined.

This move by Hunter Biden comes as his father’s administration faces mounting criticism over the border crisis, the fentanyl epidemic, and record-high housing costs.

As Hunter shifts from high-profile scandals to housing advocacy, Americans are asking: Is this just another attempt at political rehabilitation—or a strategic push to advance the Biden administration’s immigration and housing agenda?
