Light, camera…damaged!
Hunter Biden's eldest son, the so-called “sugar brother,” Hollywood lawyer Kevin Morris supports a soft-focus documentary about the disgraced and indicted president's descendants.
While his eldest son's life, seen through his now infamous laptop, resembles a Quentin Tarantino movie with lots of less-tasteful nudity, Morris' untitled project sees the more gentle Hunter “painting, making art.'' He sells his house, raises his son, and lives his daily life as a calm adult amid an ongoing criminal investigation and crosshairs. [former President Donald] Mr. Trump and his supporters.” The Los Angeles Times had an incredible report. this week.

Mr. Morris brought a camera to Serbia, and his staff raided the set where director Felim Makaria was filming “My Son Hunter,'' a movie mocking the Biden family that was distributed by Breitbart in September 2022. did.
Mr. McAleer, who was born in Ireland, told the Los Angeles Times that he allowed Morris and his crew to film on set for several days and even went out to dinner with the antagonists.
At one point, the director said, Morris started asking questions like, “What was the history of laptops?” What did I know about the history of laptops?”
“He was looking for information and evidence for his client while pretending to be something he was not,” McAleer claimed.
There is currently no release date set for the film, but if it does end up being released in a theater near you or on a streaming service, it could become one of the most expensive openings of all time.
Mr. Morris of Burns & Morris, a leading entertainment law firm (now known as Jorn Levin Burns Klinzman Rubenstein Corner Endlich & Gellman after leaving the firm in 2021), has been working with clients to Before making the move, he worked tirelessly as a spokesperson for “South Park” creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone. The agency's list also included Matthew McConaughey, Scarlett Johansson and Will Ferrell.
Professional expertise and political opportunity came together when Morris met Hunter in November 2019 at a Southern California fundraiser for then-candidate Joe Biden.
IRS whistleblower Joseph Ziegler said Mr. Morris gave Mr. Hunter $4.9 million over the next three years to cover delinquent taxes, legal fees, housing, car payments and other expenses.
A loan of at least $1.2 million from Morris to Hunter in 2020 carries interest and must be repaid starting in 2025.
Beset by an onslaught of federal prosecutors and congressional Republicans, the younger Biden has stepped up his public defense of his actions in recent months.
He filed a lawsuit in September accusing Ziegler and another IRS whistleblower, Gary Shapley, of trying to “target and embarrass” them.
Mr. Hunter has also repeatedly slammed Republicans for weaponizing his drug and alcohol addictions and other personal struggles.
Mr. Morris himself has a history of alcoholism, and his friendship with Mr. Morris, who grew up in an Irish Catholic family outside Philadelphia, appears to be part of his own rehabilitation.
“I don't know what I would have done without Kevin,” Hunter Biden told the LA Times.
“And what I mean is, not just because he lent me money to survive this onslaught, but because he gave me my dignity back. He's a brother to me. .
“What was it for Kevin? If that's your question, I don't think you really understand or know Kevin.”
Hunter went on to say that he and Morris are good friends and sometimes argue.
“But no matter what, I know that if I need him, he'll be there, probably before I even know I need him, and I'll be with him as well.” ” Biden said.
This relationship is beneficial in many ways.
Hunter complained of poverty and reduced child support payments to her 4-year-old daughter, Marine Joan Roberts, while using Morris' private jet to appear in court in Arkansas.
Business Insider reports that Morris is also one of the buyers of Hunter's artwork.
The leaked business records also state that the lawyer took over control of Hunter's 10% stake in Chinese government-backed investment fund BHR Partners, which led to negative headlines and This raised questions about a conflict of interest between him and his father.
Morris also reportedly played a major role in trying to hide the contents of Hunter's laptop, painting it like a right-wing conspiracy straight out of a Hollywood thriller.
According to the LA Times, Morris hired multiple forensic experts to solve the mystery of the missing computer and even asked them to look into the background of Delaware computer repairman John Paul Mac Isaac. It is said that he did.
Citing text messages filed in Los Angeles County Superior Court, the paper added that a Hollywood lawyer first suggested Mac Isaac was part of the plan to air Hunter's dirty laundry.
Morris' “contextualized theory” was that Biden's laptop data was cloned while Hunter was undergoing ketamine therapy in Massachusetts.
The theory is that the clone was then given to Roger Stone, a Republican political consultant and longtime Trump ally, and eventually delivered to Mac Isaac's store.
However, Dr. Keith Abloh, who was treating Biden at the time, said this theory had “no basis in fact” and added, “I have never shared Hunter Biden's laptop with anyone.” Stated.
In fact, Mac Isaac made a copy of the laptop's hard drive and gave it to Rudy Giuliani's then-lawyer Robert Costello, who turned the original over to federal authorities in December 2019.
Giuliani provided the Post in October 2020 with a copy of a hard drive containing a series of reports about Hunter Biden's foreign business interests that suggested President Biden was involved in a long-standing influence-spreading scheme. This became the basis for bomb reporting.
The newspaper has reached out to Morris for comment.
Hunter Biden will be in Los Angeles federal court next week for arraignment on tax evasion and other charges (three felonies and six misdemeanors for allegedly evading $1.4 million in taxes between 2016 and 2019). He is scheduled to appear in court.
