After the White House said earlier this month that potential buyers of the work by budding artist Hunter Biden would remain anonymous to alleviate any ethics concerns. Then this story dropped:

And with that, WH press secretary Jen Psaki went into spin mode at today’s briefing
Jen Psaki tries to spin Hunter Biden's face-to-face meetings with prospective buyers of his art:
"Hunter Biden, just like any child of a president, should be able to pursue their professions and their passions." pic.twitter.com/871FI8U9PW

Katie Pavlich noticed a word Psaki used in her spin:
The White House is now referring to Hunter Biden's hobby of blowing paint through a glass straw as his "profession"

Wow, that career switch was sudden:
Wow, and I thought Hunter was into Energy. LMAO! 😝 https://t.co/91QmCdrJtD

It seems like only yesterday that his “profession” was a lawyer and Burisma board member.

They keep using that word "profession". I don't think it means what they think it means. https://t.co/nhW5exmNYs

Perhaps that’s why Psaki referred to Hunter as a “child.”
