EXCLUSIVE: Top Republicans and mom call Biden ‘heartless, selfish and cowardly’ for refusing to acknowledge his seventh grandchild after Hunter Biden came to terms with baby mom
- Stefanik, who proudly describes herself as the “newest mom” in Congress, told that the President should have recognized Navy Joan years ago
- Hunter settled a child support dispute with mum Lunden Roberts last week and has agreed to play a role in the child’s life
Republican Conference Chairwoman Elise Stefanik has criticized President Joe Biden for not recognizing his seventh grandchild – son Hunter’s four-year-old daughter, Navy Joan – after a heated legal battle with the child’s mother came to an end.
Stefanik, who proudly describes herself as the “newest mom” in Congress, told that the President should have recognized Navy Joan years ago.
“Every American knows that Joe Biden should have done the right thing years ago and acknowledge ALL his grandchildren,” said Stefanik, RN.Y.
“It is cold, heartless, selfish and cowardly that the President of the United States can have neither love nor compassion for his beautiful granddaughter.” America sees this for what it is – an inexcusable shame.”
Hunter and Lunden Roberts agreed that Navy Joan could choose one of his paintings as a gift each month to bond with her father
Hunter Biden’s baby mum has settled her bitter child support dispute after the first son vowed to meet her illegitimate daughter and play a role in her life, exclusively revealed last week.
Years of legal wrangling ended abruptly this week when Lunden Roberts, 32, agreed to cut Hunter’s $20,000 monthly payments and drop her request to change Navy Joan’s surname to Biden.
According to sources, the amazing reversal came after Hunter Roberts said in private conversations that he wanted to end hostilities and “start a relationship” with the adorable four-year-old.
The pact also paves the way for Navy Joan to eventually meet the rest of the Biden brood — including President Joe and First Lady Jill — for the first time.
While the financial details of the settlement remain under wraps, court records indicate that young artist Hunter, 53, lets his daughter choose one of his paintings as a gift each month.
But the White House still refuses to recognize the child as family.
During the White House press briefing on Wednesday, Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre ruled out whether Biden would now recognize four-year-old Navy Joan as his granddaughter after the child support dispute was settled.

“I have nothing to share from here,” Jean-Pierre said at the briefing, moving on to the next question.
The preschool girl has never met Hunter and the Bidens have refused to count her as family – only six stockings represent the grandchildren and will be hung in the White House at Christmas time.
The New York Times reported Friday that advisors were told during strategy meetings that the Bidens have six grandchildren – not seven.
The blonde baby girl was conceived around December 2017 while Hunter was still dating his brother Beau’s widow, Hallie.
“I had no recollection of our meeting,” Hunter wrote of the affair in his memoir. ‘I had so little connection to anyone.’ I was a mess, but a mess I took responsibility for.’
Stefanik was a vocal advocate of protecting the life of unborn people.
“As the youngest mother in Congress, I gave birth to my son Sam almost two years ago,” she told last month.
“I know how important it is to stand up and protect what is most valuable and vulnerable among us, which is the unborn child,” she said at an event marking the one-year anniversary of the Supreme Court’s Dobbs decision, which opened the landmark Roe v. Calf.
