Naomi Biden is more than just your average Biglaw associate. As the last name suggests, she’s also the President’s granddaughter. So while she bills away her time at Arnold & Porter, she also gets a Secret Service detail. As one does.

She’s also Hunter Biden’s daughter, so you know she’s hear a lot of bullshit about her family, particularly from the far right. But last night, Naomi heard something so out of pocket she just had to respond.

Earlier this week, Fox News Host Jesse Watters said some truly awful stuff — without even getting into policy disagreements — that was just wrong about the nature of addiction.

Watters said, “I knew Biden was bad on the border because he’s not the best father. The man can’t say no to his own son. He can’t say ‘stop.’ He can’t have consequences for actions.” He continued, “And that’s what you need, you need a man in charge, on the border, to say ‘this is not going to be allowed.’” 

That was… very much over the line. And Naomi took to the artist formerly known as Twitter to sound off.

Good for you, Naomi. He deserved to be put in his place.
