Hunter Biden has made the wild claim that Washington is run by a “closeted gay mafia” in the wake of Lindsey Graham‘s death.
Speaking on Jennifer Welch‘s “I’ve Had It” podcast, Biden, 56, claimed that the late Graham was one of several politicians who are homosexual and closeted.
“I know for certain, and I’m not kidding now, is that there is — and everybody in DC knows this. I mean, I lived there for 20 years… everybody knows there is like this closeted gay mafia, largely Republican, that exists in Washington D.C., and everybody knows every single one of them who’s gay,” he said.
Biden then argued that the closeted politicians have a self-loathing that has dictated cruel political positions.
“The only reason that that is relevant is because I believe that internal conflict creates so much vitriol inside a person, that they take it out on the rest of the world,” he said. “And so what they do is their whole lives, they’ve been closeted. And so you have this like, blackened heart by the fact that you can’t be who you want to be. And so you take it out on everybody else.”
Biden clarified that one member of the “mafia” he was talking about was Graham, who was long suspected of being gay — and rumored to patronize male s** workers in D.C. After Graham died, trans influencer Jessie James Rose accused Graham of purchasing her services before they transitioned. Graham denied that he was gay until his death.
Biden did not give any other names who he considered part of the “closetocracy,” but did say he got a “really k**** vibe” from Senator Ted Cruz in the same interview.
“Do you get a gaydar ping from Ted?” Welch asked Biden.
“No, you know what I get, I get a really, really k****, weird s***-type thing,” Biden replied. “It may be gay, it may not be gay, it may be a little bit of this, it may be a little bit of that, but it may involve animals, too.”
Biden did not substantiate any of these claims with evidence, but Cruz did infamously like a video clip from a p*** film in 2016 — on the 15th anniversary of 9/11, no less — on what was then called Twitter.
Cruz blamed the highly-memed scandal on his staff.
