NY Times: Charges Against Hunter Biden Could Be Imminent
newsmax ^ | Jan 12 | Newsmax

Posted on 01/12/2023 6:53:10 AM PST by RandFan

The U.S. attorney for Delaware is nearing a decision about whether to prosecute Hunter Biden, The New York Times reported.

U.S. Attorney David C. Weiss and his team have been probing the first son's overseas business dealings, and interactions between Hunter Biden's business associates and President Joe Biden before he won the nation's highest office, the Times reported.

However, people familiar with the investigation told the Times that Weiss' focus appears to concern Hunter Biden's taxes.

The newspaper said possible charges stem from Hunter Biden's failure to meet filing deadlines for his 2016 and 2017 returns, and possibly $30,000 in false deductions for business expenses.

Weiss, who was nominated to his position by former President Donald Trump, also is said to be considering charging Hunter Biden with lying on a U.S. government form filled out to purchase a handgun in 2018. The gun later was found in a trash can.

Hunter Biden, when filling out the form, said he was not using drugs. That assertion, the Times said, is one "that prosecutors might be able to challenge based on his erratic behavior and possible witness accounts of his drug use around that period."

Please tell me. Just who or what is going to indict Hunter Biden?
The Bidens are Royalty and I am pretty damn sure Sovereign Immunity protects them from silly shit like that. And I am also pretty sure that Sovereign Immunity will extend down through at least 4-5 generations.

A shot across the bow.
Joe, if you don’t step down, because of the document scandal, the next step is going after your bagman.

Smells like a strategy to charge him with penny ante crimes so they can pretend to have done something, while turning a blind eye to Hunter’s role as bagman for Joe Biden Influence Sales, LLC.

This and the sudden release of information about the classified documents that Biden has. Biden is being taken out by the dems, no doubt about it.

If it were Don Jr or Eric Trump, or any other Republican, I absolutely believe that they would face consequences

Charges may be filed, yeah, as in plea deal to some obscure tax problem. Fine paid, no jail time. No public disclosure of anything beyond he falsely claimed.....

Charges? Filming without a license. $10 fine and slap on the wrist.

Pity the NY Slimes couldn't publish anything about Hunter's laptop before the 2020 election.

What's interesting is that some faction of the Dem junta in control of the country seems to want Joe Biden out or at least damaged sufficiently that he can't run again as the first amoeba for President in 2024.

It's sad to have to write about American politics as though I were a Kremlinolgist from the 80's.

China gave U Penn 54 Million. Biden set up his Center there and took 1 million year to teach and never taught. The Chinese own Biden and his son who had a 1.5 billion contract. Now we conclude the Chinese had access to the documents which involved Iran and the Ukraine.

Hunter Biden’s partner on Tucker Carlson 2021. The “big guy” (Joe Biden) gets 10%. Discuss the various contracts including 1.5 billion from a Chinese company. When you see a 48 year politician with 4 houses and his entire family has been enriched, there is only one explanation and they didn’t win the lottery.

A tax evasion indictment would include a discovery phase. Who knows what then might turn up?

He's had a federal prosecutor investigating him for a couple of years. Hard to imagine they would get anything more in discovery for a civil trial.

Capone never went to jail for bootlegging.

He went to jail for tax evasion.

The most useless phrase in the English language
Charging/arresting him and not his dad is even more useless and anti-climactic.

Go ahead, scream for his arrest (ignoring his dad the real criminal) and see how much it changes your life.

Hunter Biden can't wipe his own ass without the help of his dad.
