Hunter Biden Is Not Invited to State Dinner Amid Legal Woes, After Receiving ‘Celebrity Treatment’ at White House Easter Egg Roll

President Biden’s embattled son Hunter was notably absent from Wednesday evening’s exclusive State Dinner honoring Prime Minister Kishida of Japan.

It was on the same day that a federal judge in California refused to throw out his felony tax case.Ashley Biden (L) and Finnegan Biden (R) arrive at the White House for a state dinner on April 10, 2024.

The first son showed up, beaming and shaking hands, just days after he agreed to plead guilty to misdemeanor tax and gun offenses. The agreement, criticized by Republicans as “a sweetheart deal” would collapse later in the summer, and Hunter was then indicted on multiple felony counts.

However, Dr. Krein was not spotted at the arrivals, where Ms. Biden walked before the cameras with her niece, Finnegan, Hunter’s daughter. At her previous State Dinner appearance, the India gala, her guest was not Dr. Krein, but Seema Sadanandan, a lawyer who focuses on criminal justice reform and racial equity.President Biden and his son Hunter Biden talk with guests during the White House Easter Egg Roll on the South Lawn on April 01, 2024 at Washington, DC. Chip Somodevilla/Getty ImagesOnly yesterday, Ms. Biden provided a statement to a court as a Florida mother, Aimee Harris, was sentenced to a month in prison for stealing her diary. Ms. Biden called the theft “one of the most heinous forms of bullying.” The diary had been abandoned in 2020 at a sober living house in Florida where Ms. Biden had been living. Ms. Harris found it when she moved into the house, and illegally sold the diary to Project Veritas, a conservative journalism outfit.The first son’s eldest daughter, Naomi, 30, attended Wednesday night’s State Dinner with her husband, Peter Neal. Her sister Finnegan, 23, attended alone, although as previously noted, she walked before the cameras with her aunt Ashley. Naomi, who at the time of her November 2022 wedding to Mr. Neal was living with him at the White House, has recently moved to Washington’s exclusive Georgetown neighborhood, where a Secret Service vehicle that was part of her security detail was recently robbed by miscreants who made off with night vision goggles.President Joe Biden listens as Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida speaks ahead of a toast during a State Dinner at the White House, Wednesday, April 10, 2024, in Washington.

Mr. Biden’s daughters got to rub shoulders at the State Dinner with celebrities such as the actor Robert DeNiro and the skating champion Kristi Yamaguchi, as well as Jeff Bezos and his fiancee, Lauren Sanchez.
