Nominated US Ambassador To India Eric Garcetti Embroiled In Pay To Play Scandal With Hunter Biden
October 7, 2021
The Los Angeles Mayor nominated as the US ambassador to India, Eric Garcetti has been embroiled in a pay-to-play scandal with Hunter Biden, the son of US President Joe Biden.
Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti, who has been nominated as the US Ambassador to India, attended an art show hosted by Hunter Biden, son of the US President Joe Biden, in Hollywood last week.
Biden's opponents and several lawmakers have slammed Garcetti, who is now awaiting confirmation hearing, for this.
"Disgraced LA mayor Eric Garcetti, who Joe Biden nominated for Ambassador to India, was one of the many ambitious potential buyers at Hunter Biden's art show where pieces are selling for USD 500k," Congressman Jim Banks said in a tweet. "I'm sure it is just a coincidence…," he said.
According to Mother Jones, about 200 people attended this event.
"Hunter's gallerist, Georges Bergès, has said he's expecting as much as USD 500,000 for some of the paintings," The Atlantic reported.
"Unfortunately for the White House, the people about to profit from Hunter's foray into the art world are anticipating far higher returns—and suddenly presenting the Biden administration with a new Hunter-related headache," the news outlet said.
"We've spoken to the arrangement that is run by the gallerist and Hunter Biden's representatives that the White House provided suggestions for.
I'd refer you to the gallerists for questions about the event and as well as the representatives of Mr. Garcetti in terms of his attendance," White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki told reporters at her daily news conference when asked about it.
