Video Hunter Biden admonishes Democratic leadership in Congress, calls Newsom greatest 'warrior' Hunter Biden lambasted Democratic leadership during an interview posted to social media on Tuesday, and hailed Gavin Newsom as the party’s greatest warrior.
Former President Joe Biden's son, Hunter Biden, called California Gov. Gavin Newsom the "greatest warrior" the Democratic Party has during an interview posted to social media on Tuesday.
"I think that we have an incredibly strong bench. I think that Gov. Newsom is probably the most articulate and greatest warrior we have out there — really loves the way in which he calls out the president," Biden told Luke Radel in an interview for MeidasTouch.
Biden told Radel that a leader will emerge eventually after also naming Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear, and Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro.
"But more than anything, we just have to unify — not just as Democrats. I’m kind of sick of party labels. I am disappointed in much of the Democratic Party, leadership in Congress, in the United States Senate," he said.

The ex-president's son then praised New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani.
"I look at somebody like Mayor Mamdani and I’m inspired, absolutely, completely inspired by the way in which he has not only won his election but the way that he’s leading now," he continued.
Shapiro, Beshear and Newsom are considered potential 2028 candidates for Democrats, but no one has officially announced their candidacy.

"I’m completely biased as it relates to what my dad did for me. I fully understand how uniquely situated I am in being privileged enough to have received a pardon from my father," he said.
Hunter Biden also pointed fingers at the current first family in the interview, saying, "I don't think that the founders ever imagined Donald Trump. I don't think they ever imagined the Trump family."
