HUGE: Hunter Biden’s Legal Team Used Joe Biden to Blackmail DOJ
PJ Media ^ | 08/20/2023 | Matt Margolis

Posted on 08/20/2023 4:05:19 PM PDT by SeekAndFind

A stunning nugget of information dropped late Saturday night, giving us a peek into the sausage factory of Hunter Biden’s legal strategy that ultimately led to his sweetheart plea deal. It turns out that Hunter Biden wasn’t only using his father’s position in his shady business deals, but he also actively weaponized it to get an unprecedented plea deal.

The plea deal, as you know, was deemed unconstitutional by Judge Maryellen Noreika, and she rejected it — namely over the blanket immunity he would receive as part of the pretrial diversion agreement. Not only would Hunter get no jail time, but he also couldn’t be prosecuted for a multitude of crimes he’d allegedly committed, including violating the Foreign Agents Registration Act.

The crimes that Hunter was accused of, namely using and distributing illicit drugs while illegally possessing a firearm, would not only require being charged with a felony but could also have seen him face as much as ten years in prison with a mandatory minimum of five. The pretrial diversion agreement wiped that charge clean, and it turns out Hunter’s legal team knew just how to get what they wanted.

In the fall of 2022, a notable shift occurred in Hunter Biden’s legal battle. News had leaked that federal agents believed they possessed sufficient evidence to charge Hunter with unlawfully acquiring a firearm while being a drug user.

According to a report from Politico, on Halloween, Hunter’s lawyer Chris Clark, furious over the leak, used the threat of calling Joe Biden as a witness if U.S. Attorney David Weiss charged him with the gun crime.

After all they have put Trump through for manufactured "process" crimes, these are real crimes.

Maybe we start seeing some traction on the real Biden crimes. It's a good sign that Hunter's lawyers are apparently dumping him now that the plea deal fell through.

I was relieved to click on this thread and not see Gateway Pundit as the source, as they have been 100% wrong on everything so far.

Note to all:
If someone gets a breaking news link showing the photos of Merrick Garland and FBI Director Wray in unclothed compromising positions of any sort-—please——please-—give barf warnings on top lines.

Thank you in advance.

Following the trial and conviction of Merrick Garland and FBI Director Wray for giving aid and comfort to the enemies of the United States, please show all videos and photos of these traitors becoming one-time rope testers.

So was calling Joke as a witness just used as a threat to the prosecution, because “nobody f*cks with a Biden?” What could he have possibly contributed to Hunter’s defense besides “His mommy died when he was 3, so go easy on him.”
