Here’s the Real Reason Why Hunter Biden Shocked the Courtroom and Pleaded Guilty in Federal Tax Evasion Case

Hunter Biden shocked the California courtroom on Thursday as he officially entered a guilty plea while jury selection was underway for his federal tax evasion trial.

In December Hunter Biden was hit with a 9-count indictment filed in the Central District of California: Tax evasion, failure to file/pay taxes, and false/fraudulent tax return.

The charges were handed down by Special Counsel David Weiss after a sweetheart plea deal on tax charges fell apart last summer.

The indictment details a “four-year scheme” to avoid the $1.4+ million tax obligations he owed between 2016 and 2019 and to file false returns.

Hunter Biden initially entered an ‘Alford plea’ which allowed him to plead guilty while simultaneously maintaining his innocence.

Federal prosecutors fought back and Hunter Biden ended up entering a standard guilty plea.

Judge Scarsi signed off on the guilty plea which means Hunter Biden will avoid a trial.

Sure, Hunter Biden may have avoided a trial because he knows he can easily get a pardon from his father.

However, according to investigative reporter Paul Sperry, prosecutors filed a “road map” glossary to trial exhibits detailing the Biden Crime family’s China influence-peddling scheme.

Via RealClearInvestigations reporter Paul Sperry: Sources say Hunter threw in towel to avoid trial exposing Biden-China influence peddling, after prosecutors filed “road map” glossary to trial exhibits:”CEFC China Energy””Patrick Ho””Kevin Dong””Mervyn Yan””Ye Jianming””State Energy HK””RosemontSenecaBohai””SinoHawk”

You betcha. As soon as that gavel hits, he will be pardoned by Dad. This was stretched out for one reason, to protect Joe.

One question is about the states he lived in;....can he be also brought up on any state tax evasion/fraud charges?

He couldn’t receive a pardon from “daddy dearest” for those, like he could for the federal convictions.

So The Biden Democrat Party Organized Crime Family was being bribed by the Chinese.

Look at how the press is all over that story.

In early 2001, just before leaving office, President Bill Clinton pardoned his brother Roger, who had been serving time for a federal drug-related offense.

Can he pardon family members that haven’t even been charged?

Ford pardoned Nixon.

You got me there. The pardon was Sept. 8, 1974. I was born Sept. 10, 1970.

There is no statute of limitations on murder, kidnapping, treason, and defrauding the IRS.

Yep. Biden won’t pardon Hunter but I bet Biden will step down, Kamala will assume POTUS and SHE will pardon him.

Would you trust Kamala to hold her end of the bargain?

Why would Biden take such a risk on Kamala’s pardon? Biden has nothing to lose in pardoning Hunter and lots to gain. A loving dad protecting his only surviving son (did you know Beau died in Iraq?) and evidence of money going from Hunter to the Big Guy being kept quiet.

Me, too.

Credit due: A local guy called into the MARKLEY, VAN CAMP & ROBBINS radio show (how I heard about it).

But I would call that just coincidence (logically)...

Nope, the Alford plea deal was not accepted by the court.

Ford pardoned Nixon before any charges were filed, so probably yes.

Any pardon of the Biden Crime Family will be done so minimize political damage. Harris will NOT grant the pardon when Biden can and she can claim that she is as shocked as anyone by it. Biden will issue the pardon as his last official act if he resigns (although it will be kept as quiet as possible) or after the election and before the inauguration if he completes the term. Harris' fingerprints will be nowhere near the pardon, so she has plausible deniability.

So, in short, he took one for the team, and will get pardoned on the way out the door.
