Hunter Biden reveals he used Burisma cash to buy drugs, Joe Biden 'showed up' to his drug den flanked by Secret Service

Hunter Biden admitted in a new interview that his lucrative board appointment at Burisma as well as other roles helped him to fuel his crack cocaine addition. Biden sat on the board of the Ukrainian energy giant Burisma earning $80,000 per month for his services.

Biden appeared on the "Dopey" podcast, where he talked about how he embarked on a two-month bender but "never went broke" while he was staying at the Chateau Marmont in Hollywood. He said that he tried to "go out with a bang."

Speaking to host Dave Manheim, who asked him how could afford the long stay at the ritzy hotel in California, Biden replied, "Well, I still had the residual. Like for instance, I still was on the board of Burisma."

The younger Biden was appointed to the board of the Ukrainian energy company in 2014 while his father, then-Vice President Joe Biden, was dealing with Ukraine policy in the Obama administration.

Although he had no experience in the energy industry, the younger Biden argued that he was qualified for the role and that he wasn't “running some kind of international crime syndicate.”

“What people don’t understand about Burisma is that I went on the board of Burisma because I had been on the board of about 14 other major national and international organizations,” he added. “I was chairman of the board of the UN World Food Program, which is the largest humanitarian organization in the world — we increased the budget when I was chairman from $1.8 billion to $2.6 billion when I was there.”

He also talked about how his father, while vice president under Barack Obama, "showed up" at his home flanked by Secret Service agents while Hunter was using drugs. "There I would be in all of the obviousness of someone that was in distress," he said about when his dad would show up at the door. "He was wise enough to know this: is that all you can do is love. And unconditional love is not love without consequences."

The younger Biden said that his dad would always be there for him with that unconditional love, no matter what Hunter did.

During the course of the interview, Biden said that "true addicts" are some of the most "resourceful, resilient, intelligent, and mission oriented" people around, and that without the crack, addicts are "bada** f*cking warriors."
