DOJ Sued for Not Registering Hunter Biden as Foreign Agent
Newsmax ^ | July 19, 2023 | Eric Mack

Attorney General Merrick Garland and President Joe Biden's Justice Department have been sued for failing to require Hunter Biden to register as a foreign agent.

While Garland is defendant in the lawsuit, the America First Legal (AFL) allegations go back to former President Barack Obama's administration, when Hunter Biden directly represented Ukraine energy company Burisma in dealings with the Obama White House. It is a violation of Foreign Agent Registration Act (FARA) under 22 U.S.C. § 611(b), according to the complaint.

"As detailed in our complaint, the record is quite clear," AFL VP and General Counsel Gene Hamilton wrote in a statement. "Hunter Biden appears to have used his unique access and position to the benefit of multiple foreign principals. Any other American would have been criminally prosecuted for failing to register as a foreign agent for this conduct — but not under Merrick Garland's Department of Justice, which continues to go out of its way to help President Biden, his family, and his radical liberal allies.

My husband has been complaining about this for years. He had a job where he was required (every year) to attend a film explaining FARA and why they should be aware of this law. It was a yearly thing he had to watch, along with the sexual harassmewnt video (the same one every year).

Probably nothing. What remedy can a judge provide? They can’t force Garland to indict someone. They can’t remove him from his office either.

Your hubby should have picked that day for “Bring Your Wife To Work Day” and he could have had someone interesting to pay attention to while at the movie.

Obama hated "The Bidens". He felt they were purely self serving grifters. Hunter was banned from the Whitehouse, but every time Obama had a trip, Hunter and daddy Joe were right back at it.

Obama may be a Marxist scheming political force, but he always is about bigger things than himself.

Obama should know a self serving grifter when he sees one.

I dunno about that? Obama wants to be historically famous. Biden just wants to be powerful and rich. Biden couldn’t give a damn about historical legacies.

Maybe a bit of equity given what they did to Gen Flynn and Paul Manafort among others, for alleged FARA violations

That’s true, the entire Biden Crime Family are actually selling Joe Biden favors, not their own.
