The big news today is that the DoJ has finally slapped illegitimate first son Hunter Biden with criminal charges. Actually, the big news is that Joe Biden’s DoJ cut a sweetheart deal for the crackhead swindler, reducing all charges to misdemeanors with no jail time. Meanwhile, President Trump goes to trail in August for possessing things he legally owned.
The NY Post reports on the latest bit of corruption to bubble up from the putrid swamp:
First son Hunter Biden has agreed to plead guilty to federal tax charges as part of a deal with the Justice Department that will likely keep him out of jail and spare him a trial, according to a court document filed Tuesday.
The charges, first reported by NBC News, amount to a slap on the wrist following a five-year investigation into the 53-year-old that has focused on money he received from overseas business interests.
President Biden’s son will plead guilty to two misdemeanor charges of failing to pay federal income tax, according to a letter submitted to federal court by Delaware US Attorney David Weiss.
According to the charges, Hunter failed to pay at least $100,000 he owed in income tax in both 2017 and 2018.
The first son allegedly received at least $1.5 million in taxable income in each of those years.
As part of the agreement, Hunter will also enroll in a pretrial diversion agreement on the felony charge of illegally possessing a firearm as a drug user after he lied on a federal gun purchase form in October 2018 about his addiction.
Had the DoJ not offered this unbelievably generous plea deal, Hunter would have been looking at three felonies and 12 years in prison.
The White House issued a statement through a spokesperson that simply said, “The President and First Lady love their son and support him as he continues to rebuild his life. We will have no further comment.”
Remember all of those times Biden claimed Hunter was the smartest man he knows and that his son hadn’t done anything wrong? Good times.
A prosecutor usually offers a plea deal if he isn’t 100% on getting a conviction. In this case however, it was cut and dry: Hunter didn’t pay his taxes, so those two charges were lay-ups. As for the gun charge, Hunter confessed to being a drug addict when he purchased a gun, so that one was in the bag too. There is no reason, legitimate reason, why they would have cut such a great deal with this clearly guilty piece of shit.
There are however several nefarious reasons why. The first is, Joe Biden isn’t going to let his DoJ put his own son away for a decade or so. The second is, there will be no trail, so lot’s of other things like the Biden family corruption won’t be exposed. The third is, with Biden weaponizing his DoJ to destroy his political opponents, he wants to make it seem like the feds are totally unbiased with a slap on the wrist for Hunter.
And realistically, charging Hunter Biden probably means that the DoJ won’t have to turn over their investigation materials to the House because it’s part of a current criminal proceeding. After that, they may try to argue that the case is settled and order the investigation documents sealed or destroyed.
If anyone of us didn’t pay our taxes, we would go to jail. If any one of us lied on a 4473 gun purchase background check form, we would not only go to jail but also lose our gun ownership rights forever. This is what corruption looks like in real time.
