So, that NY Times hit-piece on Biden and his son, suggesting untoward activity on the part of Hunter Biden vis-a-vis dealings with Ukranian officials?

This story? [https://www.nytimes.com/2019/05/01/us/politics/biden-son-ukraine.html](https://www.nytimes.com/2019/05/01/us/politics/biden-son-ukraine.html)

Turns out, the author of the piece _just happened_, today, to accept the job as the official spokesperson for the President of The Ukraine beating, by her admission, 4,000 candidates for the job.

I’m sure it’s all just a big ol’ coincidence. Or a part of the application and interviewing process. I can’t decide which… someone want to offer me some guidance here?
