A newly active X account using Hunter Biden’s name drew mockery from Republican lawmakers and conservative social media figures after posting its first public message Tuesday, as reported by Fox News.

The account, @HunterBiden, posted, “I'm Hunter Biden. You've never actually heard from me.”

The account’s profile identifies him as “Artist. Author. Recovery Advocate.” Fox News Digital reported that it contacted X and Hunter Biden’s art gallery to verify whether the account belongs to the former president’s son, but did not receive confirmation.
