() Hunter Biden says his father Joe Biden’s poor debate performance in 2024 was because the president had taken Ambien.

In a three-hour interview conducted by Andrew Callaghan and posted to YouTube, Hunter Biden addressed a range of topics, from his drug use to his father’s presidency.

Hunter Biden blames father’s debate performance on Ambien

Biden said his father, who returned from an international trip two weeks before the debate, had been given Ambien to deal with sleep disturbances from travel, though he did not say how long it was between the last dose of the common sleeping medication and the debate.

Ambien is known to have side effects including drowsiness, and sometimes dangerous complex sleep behaviors like sleepwalking and sleep cooking.

President Joe Biden withdrew from the presidential race following his poor debate performance, which he blamed on fatigue and having a cold.

The president never indicated he took Ambien in the lead-up to the debate, and it was not in any of his medical records.

Hunter Biden attacks Dems

Hunter Biden also addressed his father’s critics, going on a profanity-filled rant about George Clooney, one of the prominent Democrats who called for Joe Biden to exit the presidential race.

“F— him. F— him and everybody around him,” Hunter Biden said.

He also levied an attack against Democratic political operatives who pushed for a new candidate, including James Carville and David Axelrod.

Hunter Biden on immigration

The former first son also criticized President Donald Trump, specifically his immigration policies.

“How do you think your hotel room gets cleaned?” Hunter Biden said of those with anti-immigrant sentiment.

He also attacked the Trump administration’s policy of deporting immigrants in the country illegally to a notorious prison in El Salvador, calling Trump a  “f—— dictator thug.”

Hunter Biden on cocaine use

Hunter Biden was also asked about his history with addiction and the revelation that he had made his own crack cocaine while he was still using drugs.

However, he denied that cocaine found in the White House in 2023 belonged to him. The FBI has opened an investigation into the drugs, which were found in a cubby.

Hunter Biden, who has been open about his history of addiction, said he was clean and sober at the time.

“I have been clean and sober since June of 2019. I have not touched a drop of alcohol or a drug, and I’m incredibly proud of that,” he said.
