Are The DOJ And Hunter Biden Attempting To Commit Fraud In Federal Court?
The Federalist ^ | 7/31/23 | Margot Cleveland

Posted on 07/31/2023 11:38:19 AM PDT by CFW

One sentence — 13 words — out of the thousands spoken last Wednesday over the course of the three hours that federal prosecutors, defense attorneys, Hunter Biden, and Judge Maryellen Noreika discussed the president’s son’s plea agreement suggests the Department of Justice and Hunter Biden are attempting to commit fraud on a federal court.

On Wednesday, Hunter Biden appeared before a federal court in Delaware prepared to enter a guilty plea on two misdemeanor tax counts. The hearing, however, did not go as planned when Judge Noreika, rather than rubberstamping the sweetheart deal the Biden administration had entered into with the president’s son, quizzed the attorneys and Hunter Biden on the terms of the agreement and their respective understanding of the government’s promise not to further prosecute Hunter.

When Noreika questioned Hunter Biden about the $1 million Patrick Ho paid Owasco LLC on March 22, 2018, purportedly for legal representation, the president’s son was cornered. With the government and the defendant both telling the court that money represented fees for legal services, Hunter Biden had to explain how: “I think Owasco PC acted as a law firm entity, yeah.” That’s how Hunter replied initially, but then immediately equivocated: “I believe that’s the case, but I don’t know that for a fact.”

[snip]

First, there’s the problem that the $1 million payment on March 22, 2018, was made not to Hunter Biden’s law firm, Owasco PC, but to Owasco LLC. And if you are going to pay $1 million for legal representation, you kinda want to pay the law firm supposedly providing those services.

Either the defense snuck in blanket immunity and the DOJ was so incompetent they missed it, or they were in on it

The plea agreement by many,many accounts was a poorly devised plea - all for Hunter's favor. There was no quid pro quo as in typical agreements

I wondered then as I do now - if you have the best and brightest at DoJ handling this prosecution, why would that have agreed to such a piece of crap plea unless they were in cahoots with the Biden Crime Family?

I've thought from the start that the DOJ and the biden defense team were on the same side.

I wasn't expecting some in here to be surprised that would happen.

You bet they are. Judges don’t get angry enough at this kind of nonsense. Why was Comey never called before the FISA court?

Yep. Both prosecution and defense had complete confidence that either the judge would not realize what they were doing, or in the alternative that she would realize it and overlook the fraud. All based upon the fact it was Hunter Biden and the President’s son. They truly thought she would not risk her career being put at risk, or her name becoming recognizable nation-wide as the judge who refused to rubber-stamp the total absolution of all crimes of Hunter Biden. And thus cover up the crimes of the installed President Joe Biden.

For it would all be in the best interest for her to have done so in order to lessen the risk that “orangemanbad” would be elected again in 2024. Trump’s election is something which could put the entire DC criminal cabal’s future at risk.

I have to believe that Judge Noreika is “in on the scam”.

I believe that since the this sweet-heart deal was being criticized as much as is was, the Feds had Judge Noreika through a tiny monkey-wrench into the hearing to try to convince the public that “this was not going to be a “special treatment” slam dunk for the Biden's prodigy.

I am quite sure at the next hearing, everything will be smoothed over and the deal will be approved, thus giving the Rats the talking points that “the Hunter Biden incident is over and taken care of lawfully by a tough judge” Oh and I'm sure the judge will get a nice book deal out of it.

Then the House investigation into Biden's illegal activities will be looked upon as “just politics”.

This article is not about sneaking in a blanket immunity. It's about lying about the facts in the statement of facts that underpins the plea deal.
