Guilty, Guilty, Guilty

Hunter Biden was found guilty today on three felony gun charges. It would have been an egregious example of what is called “jury nullification” if the jurors deliberately ignored the facts of the case and refused to convict.

It was crystal clear that Hunter lied about not being on drugs when he filled out a federal form in order to illegally purchase a gun.

But don’t lose sight of the bigger story. The most scandalous things Hunter did have nothing to do with this.

The big scandal is his channeling of millions of dollars to Biden family grifters from foreign interests that do not have the best interests of America in mind.

He failed to register as a foreign agent, which put Paul Manafort (Donald Trump’s 2016 campaign chairman) behind bars.

Hunter also failed to report $1.4 million of income on his federal taxes, and he will stand trial on those charges in September.

Daddy’s Justice Department tried to give Hunter a sweetheart plea deal to let him off the hook. But the Delaware judge had the courage to ask serious questions about the deal and refused to sign off on it. That’s the only reason we have arrived at this point today.

Hunter Biden is facing up to 25 years in jail on just today’s conviction alone. But I do not believe for one second that Joe Biden won’t pardon his son or accept the verdict.

Once the November election takes place, it will be very easy for President Biden to pardon his son. If he wins, he knows he’s not running again. But if he loses, there’s no way Trump will pardon Hunter.

And do Hunter’s attorneys believe they have any grounds for an appeal? Biden is excoriating Donald Trump for not accepting the outrageous Manhattan verdict and promising to appeal.

But accepting every verdict is not how the rule of law in America works. Appeals are an essential part of the rule of law.
