Republicans react with fury to 'brazen' timing of bombshell new Trump indictment and claim charges were filed to distract from Biden family scandals after First Son's sweetheart deal collapsed

Special Counsel Jack Smith's team of prosecutors added additional charges in to the 32-count indictment the former president was already facing for keeping classified documents at his Mar-a-Lago estate Thursday evening.

Among the new charges are allegations that the former president allegedly told aides to 'wipe' security footage from his Florida club's server as a way to foil investigators probing the removal of classified documents from the White House.

These allegations came just one day after the Department of Justice's 'sweetheart' deal with Hunter Biden sensationally collapsed, leaving the First Son susceptible to further criminal charges for alleged deals with China and Ukraine.

Now, Republican lawmakers claim the federal government has only released the new charges to distract from alleged wrongdoings perpetrated by the president's family.

Only hours after the indictment was unsealed, Fox News reported that members of 'the Biden family may hold offshore bank accounts'.

“...charges were filed to distract from Biden family scandals...”

Of course they were. Anyone with even half a brain, including Democrats, can see this.

Seems to me that Jack Smith is abusing his prosecutorial powers.

Wonder if that is actionable...

Smith probably has a few more laying on the shelf, ready to go at the next Biden crime unveiling.

According to the D.C. Bar website, Hunter Biden remains a member of the Bar in “good standing,” despite his breaking numerous rules of professional conduct.

The Bar states that it is misconduct for a lawyer to “commit a criminal act”
<><>that reflects adversely on the lawyer’s honesty, trustworthiness, or fitness as a lawyer
<><>that “many kinds of illegal conduct” reflect adversely on fitness to practice law,
<><>such as offenses involving fraud
<><>and the offense of willful failure to file an income tax return.

Hunter Biden faces two counts of willful failure to pay federal income tax......that we know of...... to which he recently pleaded “not guilty” in a court of law.

Attorneys risk the “possibility of probationary conditions” in cases of “addiction to drugs or intoxicants.” According to the text of Hunter’s failed plea deal, he “has a well-documented and long-standing struggle with substance abuse.” And was kicked out of the Navy after testing positive for cocaine.

Another bar rule states it is misconduct to “state or imply an ability to influence improperly a government agency or official.” There is corroborative proof Hunter has engaged in this numerous times.

LOL! Because sometimes a mere "Republicans pounce" is not enough.

Lol. They do this all the time. Everytime biden gets in trouble (which is all the time) they indict Trump. The last 3 years has been nothing but a big game of captain obvious.

Of course folks are angry. Anyone who believes an opposing and leading (by a lot) Presidential Candidate should be jailed for deleting files from their personal server might be happier living in a banana republic.
