Hunter Biden Fires Off 261 X Posts in 3 Days as Followers Near 500,000

Summary
102 posts on Monday, 85 on Tuesday and 74 on Wednesday turned Hunter Biden’s return to X into a high-volume burst of replies, jokes and direct engagement with critics.
His most-circulated posts leaned on blunt humor about his addiction history, denying the White House cocaine was his and saying crack—not cocaine—was his drug of choice.
The spree also widened into politics and media: Biden attacked CNN’s Jake Tapper, defended his family and at times tried to answer hostile users with more personal, conciliatory notes.
Nearly 500,000 followers and online praise have fueled the moment, though the attention is already spilling into talk of a 2028 run despite questions about whether his pace—or broader appeal—can last.
