Special Counsel David Weiss dropped one of the gun charges count against Hunter Biden on Wednesday.
The move is apparently a procedural step, according to the Associated Press:
The procedural step removes a charge alleging he broke a law against drug users having guns when he bought a gun in 2018, during a period he has acknowledged struggling with addiction.
The president’s son is now facing a three-count indictment focused on the same purchase that includes both gun possession and false statement charges. No new tax counts have yet been filed by special counsel David Weiss, who is overseeing the case.
Hunter Biden had been expected to avoid prosecution on the gun charge and plead guilty to misdemeanor tax counts in an agreement with prosecutors. But the deal collapsed after a judge raised questions about it in a July hearing and the new indictment was filed weeks later.
Hunter Biden’s lawyers wrote in an August court filing that Weiss’s decision to “renege on the previously agreed-upon plea agreement” is still in effect and binding. The diversion agreement allowed Hunter Biden to plead guilty to misdemeanor tax violations while essentially wiping a felony gun violation from his record.

“The Biden Family Syndicate”
This is my shocked face.......zzzzz
Why wasn’t “unexpectedly” included in the title?
We have really fallen. How many of us are even shocked, even a little?
Why am I not Surprised?
Sure is.
I don’t think Weiss’ heart is in putting “Joe’s kid” in jail. Get out the kid gloves. Don’t want to piss off the demented pedo.
dropped one, well things come in 3’s.
The far lefties don’t want Hunter’s criminal past screwing up their Lynching Of Donald Trump Gala Fiesta.
Of course. And Ass Press will be reporting that dropping all charges and awarding Hunter a million in damages is also merely a "procedural step".
The Department of Jesters just doesn’t have what it takes to indict Bidenskyyyyy’s boy.
“What a frigging joke.”
That’s a fact.
What a @#$%^&* corrupt government.
Surprise, surprise. More charges to be dropped in the near future.
They dropped the Drug User part
