Hunter Biden to be arraigned on federal firearms charges, expected to plead not guilty

Hunter Biden is expected to plead not guilty Tuesday to federal firearms charges in a Delaware-based federal court during an arraignment that will mark the first time a sitting president's child has appeared to fight criminal charges in court.

President Joe Biden's son was indicted by special counsel David Weiss last month for allegedly lying on a federal gun form and illegally owning a firearm while using illegal drugs.

Magistrate Judge Christopher Burke will preside over the hearing Tuesday, according to CNN. Last month he rejected Hunter Biden's request to appear virtually for the first hearing in the case, requiring the first son to travel from his home in California to Wilmington, Delaware, to face the charges.

Biden's attorney, Abbe Lowell, said in a court filing last month that his client intends to plead not guilty.

NO, because they DON’T EXIST!!!!

The article makes a Big Deal about Hunter being the “first” son of a sitting president having to defend himself from criminal charges.

LET THAT SINK IN. Either ALL the other children of former presidents were law abiding or in the case of Hunter ABOVE THE LAW. Which is it????

They are just throwing us a bone with this. The clock will be ran out for the serious graft, money laundering and influence peddling. And process crimes? Give me a break.

In the end, Brandon will pardon him after the election (win or lose).

Sorry for being negative, but you know I am right.

That is so wonderful. Now all this Hunter stuff can just go away and Joe won' be bothered any more.

Actually, if the Republicans are not themselves just hoping it will quiet down, Hunter getting a "conviction" on gun charges and immunity from any other charges should put ALL the attention and pressure on Go Brandon

Quick court proceeding. Hunter plea: Not Guilty. Biggest news of the day—Hunter had a drug test. Negative.

Hunter has been staying near the White house-—not in Calif.

He urine tested negative for drug use, but it turns out he’s pregnant.
