The Hill on the expiration of the grand jury in Delaware and reports that the Hunter Biden investigation is at a “critical stage.” T
hese lingering questions could have been avoided if Attorney General Merrick Garland had responded to new disclosures with the appointment of a special counsel. In 2021, emails and recordings from the laptop further fueled questions of whether President Joe Biden could have been a beneficiary of some of these dealings and how his early denials of knowledge appear demonstrably false. The failure to appoint a special counsel in this case is a textbook example of why such appointments are necessary to avoid such doubts about the scope or independence of an investigation.

according to various media outlets, time may be running out for Hunter, with a federal investigation entering a “
critical stage.” Yet, timing still could be on Hunter’s side.
Hunter has always had impeccable timing and, like Blanche DuBois, “
always depended on the kindness of strangers.” He went to law school after his father became a powerful U.S. senator with a long line of influence-seekers eager to help him and his family. After graduating, Hunter was given a high-paying job with MBNA, the bank holding company, which
supported key credit card legislation being pushed by his father in the Senate.

if an indictment is confined to narrow charges, not a broader conspiracy, Hunter could plead guilty to secure a more favorable sentence and avoid both a trial and the release of additional information. A plea could offer practical protection from future congressional hearings, too: It would close the case before Republicans could regain control of one or both houses of Congress, and the Justice Department could decline to bring further charges. Indeed, the expiration of the grand jury without a public indictment fueled concerns that the Biden Justice Department might cut a generous plea deal with the president’s son.

Weiss does not appear to have called critical witnesses related to any alleged influence-peddling, including President Biden. Presidents can be called before grand juries or deposed by investigators in other cases; President Clinton, for example, famously was compelled to testify in a legal case during his term. If Weiss is going to investigate deals that discuss money going to “the big guy,” as Hunter allegedly referred to his father, then it would seem obvious that that would be the one guy who should be on any witness list.
It is unclear what, if anything, Weiss has uncovered about the Bidens — but, perhaps for the first time, time will tell.
Commentary:
Clearly the Progressive Maoist/DSA Dems have run out the clock on Hunter's chances for indictment. If he does get indicted, and that's a big if, it will be for small stuff that doesn’t implicate Joe and their influence peddling schemes. The 'Fix Is In'. There are two systems of justice in this country presently, one for Democrat Elitists and one for the rest of America.
Merrick Garland may be compelled to make some weak gesture, loosely in the direction of law enforcement and justice.
Rational people found Merrick Garland unfit for duty as a Supreme Court Justice.
So the PM/DSA Democrat 'Deep Deep State' made him head of the Amerikan Stasi Gestapo. How apropos.
