Hunter Biden to plead guilty of two minor crimes (tax and a gun) Two year probation likely

[JoeB131]

Yes it's a background check you ******* moron

Uh, no, a "check" means... you actually check.

You assume that criminals will lie, crazy people think they are sane, and addicts will be in denial that they have a problem.

That's why you "Check".

The problem with the form is HIPAA makes it impossible for you to find out if a person has a mental health or substance abuse problem.

That’s it?
I was fooled by my fellow conservatives who made it seem as if he had committed big crimes.

“
President Biden’s son Hunter has reached a tentative agreement with federal prosecutors to plead guilty to two minor tax crimes and admit to the facts of a gun charge under terms that would likely keep him out of jail, according to court papers filed Tuesday.
Any proposed plea deal would have to be approved by a federal judge, and it was not immediately clear what day Hunter Biden, 53, might appear in court to enter his guilty plea.
The agreement caps an investigation that was opened in 2018 during the Trump administration, and has generated intense interest and criticism since 2020 from Republican politicians who accused the Biden administration of reluctance to pursue the case. The terms of the proposed deal — negotiated with Delaware U.S. Attorney David Weiss, a holdover from President Donald Trump’s administration — are likely to face similar scrutiny.

The court papers indicate the younger Biden has tentatively agreed to plead guilty to two misdemeanor tax charges of failure to pay in 2017 and 2018. The combined tax liability is roughly $1.2 million over those years, according to people familiar with the matter who spoke on condition of anonymity to describe details of the agreement that are not yet public. Prosecutors plan to recommend a sentence of probation for those counts, these people said. Biden’s representatives have said he previously paid back the IRS what he owed.”

Yup, the leftoid from wherever has some 'splainin to do.

This thread aged wonderfully, didn't it!

Why would anyone be upset?
A President has papers at home and faces 300 years.
J6 trespassers are locked in prison for years without bail.
Citizens are arrested for defending themselves.


And Joe’s son doesn’t pay millions in taxes and illegally buys guns and gets a slap on the wrist with no jail time. Not even charged for being an agent of foreign governments illegally.

Hunter has never been an agent for a foreign government.

One bright side:

With Hunter as the Poster Boy for Universal Background Checks

Democrats in Congress won't have a leg to stand on.

Why would Hunter Biden need a background check?

He's never been a foreign agent for any country.

What does a background check have to do with FARA?

Which has NOTHING to do with the Background Check required for a firearm purchase.

This is the man that trump wants to rehire if trump is re-elected. Scary Crazy!

Michael Flynn ignored official warnings about receiving foreign payments

Trump’s former national security adviser was warned about taking foreign money as far back as 2014, the defense department’s inspector general has found, undermining claims of political persecution
