It should not come as news to absolutely anyone that Joe Biden is a massive hypocrite. That said, it's always interesting to find new and different ways in which his hypocrisy is manifested.
Would you like to see another way? Well, here's another one for your collection.
The Biden administration got all pissy after last week's SCOTUS decision on affirmative action. Without race-based college admissions, only privileged white men (and women, and Asians and Asian Americans, of course, because to the Left they're basically white anyway) would reap the benefits of a college education, especially at prestigious institutions of higher learning, like, say, the University of Pennsylvania. Which, incidentally, is where now-President Joseph R. Biden used his considerable clout to pull some strings to get Hunter Biden's daughter — one of the six grandchildren that Joe Biden acknowledges the existence of — admission:
The admissions game: In 2018 Hunter Biden wanted to get his daughter into the highly selective University of Pennsylvania. What did he do? He had his father, at time former VPOTUS, call the president of the university. It worked. From @SaysSimonson: https://t.co/4R5n6gu8Mm

More from The Washington Free Beacon:
The influence campaign worked. Maisy Biden matriculated at the University of Pennsylvania in the fall of 2019. President Joe Biden was present in the stands four years later, when Maisy graduated with a bachelor of arts degree.
The Biden family had cultivated a close relationship with [UPenn President Amy] Gutmann by the time Joe Biden leaned on him to tip the scales for Maisy. Gutmann in 2013 awarded Joe Biden an honorary doctor of laws degree from the university and has called the president "one of our nation's foremost statesmen."

Gutmann was also confirmed as President Biden's Ambassador to Germany in early 2022.
Isn't that special? It sure is.
And, as the Free Beacon reminds us, "Shortly after the Supreme Court declared affirmative action college admission policies unconstitutional, President Joe Biden said his administration would direct the Department of Education to scrutinize how "practices like legacy admissions … expand privilege instead of opportunity." AOC even responded (stupidly, of course) to SCOTUS' decision by saying that they should've struck down legacy admissions, which are just "affirmative action for the privileged." But in light of the Free Beacon's scoop, it's — shall we say? — highly unlikely that Joe Biden would actually direct the Department of Education to go after legacy admissions. Although, to be fair, even if Biden did, he'd make sure that exceptions were carved out for his own family, because that's what he does when it comes to literally everything else.
This is exactly why the a Biden administration isn't doing anything about legacy admissions. https://t.co/D7LR94Ootn

After his first year at Georgetown law school, Hunter Biden somehow managed to be accepted as a transfer student at Yale--something extremely rare at the time. Gee, I wonder who pushed for that. 1/ https://t.co/gTQucvbx85

Well, to be fair, Hunter is the smartest person ‘big guy’ Joe knows.
