Joe Biden's felon son Hunter is joining White House meetings and official calls with top aides in the aftermath of his dad's disastrous debate performance
Hunter Biden has joined White House meetings this week after spending the weekend at Camp David with his dad on the heels of President Joe Biden's disastrous debate performance.
NBC News reported Tuesday on Hunter's presence on calls and in meetings on the White House campus as the 81-year-old president's political future hangs in the balance.
Hunter was convicted last month on felony gun charges and is still under indictment for tax crimes though 'popped into' a couple of meetings, one source said.
'What the hell is happening?' has been the reaction of some senior staff, another source told the network.
Hunter's addiction to crack cocaine and his foreign business dealings have been a years-long political headache for his father, yet Biden has kept his only living son close.

The president rushed to Delaware last month to hug Hunter on the tarmac hours after a jury decided he was guilty of lying about his sobriety when buying a gun.
The first son, his wife Melissa Cohen and baby Beau then jetted off home to California.
Hunter reappeared with his father as they disembarked Marine One Monday evening at Fort McNair.
The Biden family posed for a photoshoot with famed fashion photographer Annie Leibovitz at Camp David over the weekend, as they pushed the 81-year-old president to hold the course in his embattled reelection bid.
During Tuesday's press briefing, White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre pointed to the upcoming Fourth of July holiday to explain Hunter being alongside his dad and sitting in at least one White House meeting.
'This is a holiday week, Fourth of July,' Jean-Pierre said.
'He spent time with his family, as you all know and reported, at Camp David. Hunter came back with him and walked with him into that meeting, that speech prep, and he ended up spending time with his dad and his family that night. That is basically what happened,' she continued.

Democrats are in disarray after President Joe Biden's disastrous debate performance Thursday night against former President Donald Trump in Atlanta. His family huddled at Camp David over the weekend and encouraged the 81-year-old to stay in the 2024 race
Biden spoke for less than five minutes Monday night on the Supreme Court's presidential immunity decision - a victory for rival, former President Donald Trump - and then walked out of the Cross Hall without taking questions.
When Jean-Pierre was pressed on whether Hunter was sitting in on meetings with senior advisers, she reiterated that the first son was on hand for Monday's speech prep.
'Anything else coming out of that repoting I can't speak to,' she said.
NBC's reporting said that Hunter was involved in several meetings and calls.
'But I can say that, you know, he's close to his family, which is not unusual,' Jean-Pierre said of the president. 'They were together at Camp David. They came back together. You're gonna see a lot more family this week.'
The president and first lady will host the traditional Fourth of July gathering on the South Lawn Thursday.
