BREAKING: Hunter Biden's Legal Team Just Got Scorched by Judge for Making False Statements in CA Tax Case
RedState ^ | 7/24/24 | Susie Moore

Posted on 07/24/2024 8:29:37 PM PDT by CFW

Ouch! That's the only thing I could think to say in response to reading the order handed down by U.S. District Court Judge Mark Scarsi on Wednesday requiring Hunter Biden's legal team to show cause why they should not be sanctioned for making false statements in their recently filed motion to dismiss. While Hunter was presumably focused on his father's Oval Office address, his attorneys were getting lit up by a federal judge.

Here's what happened: On July 15th, Judge Aileen Cannon dismissed the Florida criminal case against former President Donald Trump regarding his alleged improper retention of classified documents on the basis that Special Counsel Jack Smith's appointment violated the Appointments Clause of the Constitution.

On July 18th, Biden's legal team filed a motion to dismiss the California tax case against him, attempting to piggyback off Cannon's ruling and asserting that Special Counsel David Weiss, likewise, was improperly appointed and thus didn't have authority to bring the charges against Biden.

The Court orders Mr. Biden’s counsel to show cause why sanctions should not be imposed for making false statements in the motion.

What did the Judge expect? The entire Biden clan and all their lawyers have been liars all their lives.

I believe he expected the attorneys to adhere to the declarations made at their swearing in to the Bar. Foolish judge! Obviously, he has paid little attention to the Democrat politicians and their attorneys over the past few decades. Wait until he hears about those such as Marc Elias, Andrew Weissmann, and Jack Smitih.

Can't they just play the "Because we're Democrats" card?

I don't think the appointment of the prosecutor in the Hunter case was improperly appointed, because his appointment was confirmed. Garland did not get Jack Smith confirmed, so he wasn't legally appointed. Also the Biden lawyers lied about when the Hunter prosecutor filed the charges. That's why the judge in the Hunter tax case was annoyed.

It's not clear how many pardons Joe needs to make for Hunter. Maybe that's why Joe is not ready to resign.

Unfortunely for Hunter, David Weiss is an actual appointed US Attorney.

Garland knew his ass was hung out to dry when he was asked
about the appointment of Jack Smith. He had that deer in
the headlights look.

Naturally, the press didn’t ask one question on the topic,
and acted as if nothing happened at all. LOL

Then when the judge acted on the matter, he was framed to
take the fall on the legality of things taking place.

The judge did exactly what he should have done, and had
at least one SCOTUS justice on record backing his play.

FTA----U.S. District Court Judge Mark Scarsi:

"The misstatements in the current motion are not trivial. Mr. Weiss’s institution of charges against Mr. Biden in his capacity as U.S. Attorney offers a meaningful distinction between this case and the nonbinding district court decision on which Mr.Biden bases his motion. But Mr. Biden’s motion does not engage with this distinction; instead, counsel avoids the issue by misrepresenting the history of the proceedings. This Court has little tolerance for lack of candor from counsel."

Where,or who, is Hunter getting the money from to pay for his defense?

I would expect Joe to pardon him after the DNC so as to not rock the media frenzy boat for a few weeks.

He should have Jailed the Lawyer on the spot and referred him for disbarment.

There won’t be a media frenzy with Joe pardon’s Hunter. It will be reported as expected and nothing more.

Somebody needs to tell little Hunter that NOBODY ****s with America. Not even the Biden crime family.

Joe is still prez, not her. However, Jill needs to hurry up and sign... uh, get Joe to sign the pardon before he can’t. But she may want to see her stepson sit in a prison cell so she can control his share of the $$$$$$.
