Hunter Biden Touted Connections Last Year While Pitching UCLA Law On Letting Him Teach Drug Policy Course

Hunter Biden cited political connections in 2019 while pitching the University of California, Los Angeles School of Law on letting him teach a drug policy course, emails reviewed by the Daily Caller News Foundation show.

The talks broke down after Hunter failed to "Submit further materials for the proposed course," a UCLA Law spokesman told the DCNF. Former Vice President Joe Biden said in October 2019 that Hunter was "Gonna be teaching at law school next year."

Hunter Biden touted his political connections in 2019 while unsuccessfully pitching the University of California, Los Angeles School of Law on letting him teach a course on drug policy, emails obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation show.

"In 2019, Hunter Biden inquired about the possibility of teaching a course at UCLA School of Law, and he and school leaders held preliminary conversations about the possibility," the law school's executive director of communications, Bill Kisliuk, told the DCNF in an email.

Hunter emailed the law school's dean, Jennifer Mnookin, in July 2019 to share his vision for the course he wanted to teach.

Hunter, whose struggles with drug abuse have been widely publicized, said he "Would like to focus on domestic and international drug policy" in the proposed course.

The emails between Hunter and the UCLA officials were obtained through the California Public Records Act and provided to the DCNF. The emails fill in some of the gaps of what Hunter has been doing in the months since his father began running for president.
