Joe Biden’s Brother Caught Bragging About Special Relationship in Ad for Lawfirm

The brother of Joe Biden, Frank Biden, has now been caught attempting to use his relationship with his brother too promote his own business interests.

Frank, who is a senior advisor to the Berman Law Group, touted his relationship with his brother in an ad that ran on inauguration day in The Daily Business Review .

When CNBC reached out to the law firm and the White House for Comment both either dodged the question or didn’t comment at all:

After CNBC emailed the co-founders of the firm, Matthew Moore, one of Berman Law Group’s attorneys, responded on the office’s behalf. CNBC had asked the firm whether Frank Biden will be continuing to use the Biden name in future ads while his brother is president, among other questions. The firm’s response did not provide answers to those questions.

“Frank Biden has been with the Berman Law Group for years. He is a champion for social justice, advocating against corporate behemoths that prey on the little guy,” Moore said in an email. “The big sugar case has been around for more than 2 years and is the poster child for corporate influence. We are honored to have Frank Biden stand with us as leaders for social justice,” he added.

A White House spokeswoman did not respond to a request for comment.

According to the New York Post Joe Biden had apparently tried to warn his brother against using the family name for personal profit, but apparently to not avail:

The former veep, whose scandal-scarred son Hunter Biden is under federal investigation for potential tax fraud, reportedly issued the stark warning to his younger brother on the campaign trail.

“For Christ’s sake, watch yourself,” Biden said, according to a Politico report published Thursday.

“Don’t get sucked into something that would, first of all, hurt you,” he added.

The report follows the news that Frank Biden, a non-attorney senior adviser for the Boca Raton-based Berman Law Group, evoked his brother’s name in an ad touting the firm on Jan. 20 — the same day Joe Biden was sworn into office.

It seems that the Biden family is wasting no time in turning the family patriarch’s time in the White House into an opportunity for shameless influence peddling.

An operation which, ultimately, may end up putting the machinations and transparent corruption of the Clinton family to shame in the long term.
