"President Joe Biden’s son Hunter has reached a deal with federal prosecutors on charges he failed to pay federal income tax and illegally possessed a weapon, according to a letter in U.S. District Court in Delaware, and will plead guilty to tax offenses but likely avoid time behind bars. Hunter Biden will plead guilty to the misdemeanor tax offenses as part of the agreement made public Tuesday. The agreement will spare him prosecution on a charge of illegally possessing a firearm as a drug user if he adheres to conditions set by prosecutors. It is somewhat unusual to resolve a federal criminal case at the same time the charges are filed in court, though it is not totally unheard of. The gun charge states that Hunter Biden possessed a handgun, a Colt Cobra 38 special, despite knowing he was a drug user for 11 days in October 2018. The count carries a maximum sentence of up to 10 years in prison, but the Justice Department said Hunter Biden had reached a pretrial agreement on that charge. Full details were not immediately disclosed.
The Hunter Biden charges, meanwhile, were filed by the U.S. attorney for Delaware, Trump appointee David Weiss. The Justice Department investigation burst into public view in December 2020, one month after the presidential election, when Hunter Biden revealed that he had received a subpoena as part of the department’s scrutiny of his taxes - The agreement comes as the Justice Department pursues perhaps the most consequential case in its history against Trump, the first former president to face federal criminal charges."
So Hunter, who was facing at least 10 years if not life in federal prison for carrying a firearm illegally; will now go scot-free with probation and a slap on the wrist? WTF? So what did they do to pressure the special prosecutor into caving in to the Deep State - or was he part of the Deep State all along?? How can we trust any conviction by the DOJ or any arrest by the FBI if they are so corrupt? Why have the House GOP done so little to bring Hunter to justice and make him and his family account for their multitude of crimes?? They should subpoena the prosecutor immediately and ask him under oath did the Biden admin threaten his life or his family's life - something has to be done to stop this tyrant!
