Hunter Biden, the son of President Joe Biden, will plead guilty to three federal charges, the Justice Department said Tuesday in a court filing.

Poster Comment: If the man committed a crime, then he needs to do the time.

    As of 15 minutes ago the article is no longer stating he pled out on the gun charge.

    Currently it states

    Hunter Biden, the son of President Joe Biden, will plead guilty to two tax misdemeanors and struck a deal with federal prosecutors to resolve a felony gun charge, the Justice Department said Tuesday in court filings.

    And then goes on to say

    “A firearm charge, which will be subject to a pretrial diversion agreement and will not be the subject of the plea agreement, will also be filed by the Government."

    My guess is they more-or-less dropped it as they didn’t want him challenging the constitutionality of The Gun Control Act of 1968 like he said he would.

      I appreciate this info… I’m a little disappointed though, because if it’s gonna get challenged… I’d love to see the maga crowd try to figure out how to be angry at hunter Biden for fighting gun control….

        Probably with the same ease they dismiss Reagan having signed The Mulford Act.

        Their position has always been perfectly logically consistent, and it is, “We are the in-group, fuck you.”
