Jill and I will always be there for Hunter and the rest of our family with our love and support. Nothing will ever change that.
— President Joe Biden
In the most open-and-shut case since Al Capone was found guilty of failing to pay taxes on his gangster profits, a jury found Hunter Biden guilty on all three charges for lying on a gun purchase form in saying he was not addicted to drugs.
The prosecution presented a mountain of evidence that Hunter committed the crimes, while Hunter’s defense team presented barely anything to rebut that evidence or otherwise exculpate him. Their Hail Mary strategy was “jury nullification” where an unethical jury allows its passion or prejudice to set free a defendant they know to be guilty. See, Simpson, Orenthal James.
The fine-tuning to this defense was the presence of First Lady “doctor” Jill throughout the trial – once by flying Air Force Two back from France where she was tending to her incontinent husband and back again, all on taxpayer expense.
There’s more to come. Hunter is scheduled for a trial on tax evasion. That case will present an opportunity for Hunter to emulate Mr. Capone even closer. The case is for Hunter’s failure to pay taxes on the proceeds collected by the Biden family business from foreign influence-seekers. Establishing the amount of money received, retained and not reported to the IRS will entail documenting not just what the foreigners paid Hunter, but also the disbursements from Hunter to his . . . um . . . relatives who probably likewise failed to pay taxes.
Some of those relatives must be squirming.
Part of the evidence will also be the laptop from hell that one of those relatives falsely assured us was a Russian fake – an assurance that the mainstream media and the establishment intel operators bought hook, line and sinker.
Hunter’s sentencing hearing will be in a few months. He could be sentenced to as much as 25 years in prison, but is more likely to get about one year, at most. It’s unlikely that he’ll skate altogether, however. The guy will serve time – and even more time when he’s convicted in the upcoming tax case.
Unless a relative pardons him. Both cases involve federal crimes, for which a president has pardon power.
Joe says he won’t pardon him. I’ll bet he breaks that promise after the election, win or lose. (Joe of course has the pardon power until his term is over, which is not until January 2025 even if he loses.) Parsing the quoted words above, he already seems to be signaling to Hunter that a pardon is in the works – provided Hunter doesn’t rat him out.
Joe will have a rationale for that promise-breaking. He’ll say that the cases became politicized and justice was not served and “Orange Man Bad” and, besides, “threats to democracy.”
This will be a fitting finale to the reign of the stupid crooked Bidens, and history will remember it even if the mainstream media buries it. The plagiarizing, lying, mumbling, stumbling, bumbling, influence-peddling patriarch who abolished the nation’s borders, botched Afghanistan, invited the invasion of Ukraine and the Hamas pogrom of Israel and then turned on Israel as it tried to defend itself against that invasion, revived 1980’s-style inflation, undermined America energy independence, and tried to purchase votes from youngsters with loan shifting and pot decriminalization, will pardon his felonious, crack-addicted, paternity-denying, illegal gun-toting, whore-mongering, bribe-taking, deadbeat daddying, perverted miscreant of a son.
Worst. President. In. History.
Just today I saw a news flash advertisement about a discussion about how far political prosecutions have gotten out of hand citing this and Trump's cases. The big difference here is Trump's charges are trumped up from thin air, Hunter is blatant in his crime and I am more amazed at the FBI who seems to have slept on a lot of this AND exclusion of Hillary for deleting emails and destroying phones that she was required by law to hand over. We got to put all under the same microscope.
One retired lawyer to another--what in the world was the Biden defense team thinking? They had to know Hunter had no defense to the charges and by going to trial, all the dirty Biden laundry was going to be aired. Why not a simple plea, take a six month sentence and keep all the dirt in a tidy pile under a mountain of rugs, where it would not become publicized unnecessarily? That could have kept everything off the radar of the low-info voters who are going to decide the election. Joe could have pardoned him after that and Hunter would basically emerge in the same shape he was in before the brouhaha boiled over. Now he's gonna be in the spotlight again on the tax charges, where another pile of dirt awaits public airing. He absolutely has no choice but to plea if he and his lunatic father hopes to avoid a financial scandal that might very well ensnare both of them, not to mention Uncle Jimmie and the rest of the Biden crime family. By the way, if I ever get arrested, remind me to never hire "sooper genius" Abbe Lowell as my defense counsel. I can't afford to pay through the nose for the services of a guy whose cross-examination skills are limited to saying, "Oh, yeah?" and "Says who?" before sitting back down.
