'Incredibly heartless': Netizens outraged as White House evades question on Joe Biden's seventh grandchild
The White House once refused to respond to a question about US President Joe Biden’s seventh grandchild, triggering a severe outrage on social media.
“I don’t have anything to share from here,” White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said when asked about a New York Times report on Biden’s son Hunter’s 4-year-old daughter Navy Joan Roberts.
WSJ’s @Catherine_Lucey: “There was a story in the NYT over the weekend about Hunter Biden’s daughter in Arkansas. Does the President acknowledge this little girl as his granddaughter?”

“There was a story in The New York Times over the weekend about Hunter Biden’s daughter in Arkansas. Does the president acknowledge this little girl as his granddaughter?” Wall Street Journal’s Catherine Lucey asked, a Fox News report said.
Hunter Biden denies daughter family name
Last month Hunter Biden settled a child support case with Lunden Roberts. As part of the settlement, Roberts dropped her demand that Hunter will allow their child to take the Biden family. In exchange, Roberts received an undisclosed number of paintings from Hunter.
Meanwhile, the White House’s refusal to entertain a question on Biden’s seventh grandchild triggered a massive outrage on social media with netizen’s raising doubts over the US president’s “family man” image.
Why is it so difficult to acknowledge the existence of your grandchild? What an incredibly heartless thing from a supposedly compassionate administration. https://t.co/f09wP7Pxcr

The Bidens hung a Christmas stocking with the dog’s name on it, and the President won’t acknowledge his own granddaughter. https://t.co/0SQfd6EUOJ
