Hunter’s plea deal

Federal gun charges in general. The specific charge Hunter received is not normal and not often charged.


“Last month, Biden was charged with possession of a firearm by a person who is a known drug user, a felony. He had a Colt Cobra .38 Special for 11 days in October 2018. He agreed to enter into a diversion agreement, which means that he would not technically plead guilty to the crime. As long as he adhered to the terms of his agreement, the case would be wiped from his record. If not, the deal would be withdrawn. The charge carries a maximum sentence of 10 years in prison.”

You are telling me drug users who are found in possession of a gun aren’t often charged?

Where is the outrage about this 'Trump appointed AG' and why hasn't the text of the plea been released.

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to piece together everything that's surfaced and see that it's quite possible a serious ethical lapse, even corruption, happened behind the scenes to protect Hunter Biden, and by extension, Joe Biden. The family was unquestionably doing weird business shilling with dummy shell companies involved and whatever it was, it doesn't smell good. That latest revelation Hunter B was paid over a million for his "art" by a person who later got a plum appointed position is intriguing, to put it politely.

If the best defense so far is that nothing can be "tied" to Joe Biden despite so many family members involved in these financial transactions, whatever they were, you know you're on shaky grounds. [/quote

Well you aren’t a rocket scientist, that’s for sure.

My dear turnip, do you know what a fact pattern is?

Source? I haven't seen anything about a Brady ruling.


The standard operating procedure when a defendant is arraigned is that the Court issues a Brady Order. This requires the prosectuor to produce both exculpatory and inculpatory evidence. In this case, it would show that in 99% of the tax cases, paying a fine and not a criminal charge is the norm, and in the case of the gun charge, it would show very few individuals being charged with this crime. The DOJ apparently did not follow Brady rules here. Hence the delay.


This is all total BS. Total BS
I don't know what amateur pundit you are listening to in order to come up with this crap, but this has NOTHING to do with why this deal fell apart.

Okay, dear. Now do the relevant fact pattern. What does any of this have to do with Hunter Biden?

Answer: Nothing.

Clear to me that Weiss is doing Garlands bidding and its backfiring.

I would say it's the other way around. He's trying to do his job and trying to pacify politicians (do their bidding) and it's backfiring.

Almost 97% of felons/drug addicts who lie to buy a gun serve jail time?

He’s not a felon in possession so that’s irrelevant.

Lol ATF Form 4473 is checked against National Crime Information Center. It does not check for drug use. It looks at arrest record. Maybe 1% are prosecuted under this law and no one is prosecuted for lying about using drugs.

If Biden was not the the son of a democratic president this would never have been charged. In a trial look for the gun charges to be thrown out by the judge.

Just a note. If Biden is charge for “lying” on his 4473 any gun owner who drank a beer in a dry county can and should be prosecuted.

The "GOP Lawyer" meddling last week and the House "investigations" are doing more damage to convicting Hunter than anything related to Weiss.
