<p><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/photos-place-hunter-biden-at-joe-bidens-home-on-day-he-invoked-his-dad-to-threaten-chinese-biz-partner-report" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Hunter Biden&#8217;s</a> attorney responded on Friday to <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/whistleblower-says-hunter-biden-case-branched-out-of-porn-investigation" target="_blank" rel="noopener">whistleblower testimony</a> alleging that President Joe Biden&#8217;s embattled son had threatened a Chinese official in an effort to extract payment.</p>
<p>Attorney Chris Clark <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/hunter-bidens-attorney-slams-irs-whistleblowers-illegal-release-whatsapp-message-chinese-businessman" target="_blank" rel="noopener">addressed the testimony</a> — released Thursday by Congressional Republicans – which included a WhatsApp text message in which Hunter Biden threatened to wield his father&#8217;s influence against the Chinese official if payment was not made in a timely manner.</p>
<p>Clark did not dispute the veracity of the text message but instead claimed that anything the younger Biden might have said was a side effect of &#8220;horrible addiction&#8221; and therefore could not be interpreted as being connected to his father in any way.</p>
<p>&#8220;As his attorney through this entire matter, I can say that any suggestion the investigation was not thorough, or cut corners, or cut my client any slack, is preposterous and deeply irresponsible,&#8221; Clark&#8217;s statement began, addressing claims that his client had been treated with kid gloves based solely on his last name</p>
<p>&#8220;The DOJ investigation covered a period which was a time of turmoil and addiction for my client,&#8221; Clark continued, arguing that addiction had fueled Hunter Biden&#8217;s actions. &#8220;Any verifiable words or actions of my client, in the midst of a horrible addiction, are solely his own and have no connection to anyone in his family.&#8221;</p>
<p>Clark concluded by claiming that it was &#8220;illegal&#8221; and &#8220;irresponsible&#8221; to make the texts public, arguing that the fact that they had been released by Republicans made them automatically suspect.</p>
<p>&#8220;Biased and politically-motivated, selective leaks have plagued this matter for years. They are not only irresponsible, they are illegal,&#8221; he said. &#8220;A close examination of the document released publicly yesterday by a very biased individual raises serious questions over whether it is what he claims it to be. It is dangerously misleading to make any conclusions or inferences based on this document.&#8221;</p>
