The White House presented the news of Hunter Biden's plea deal as the end of his sordid saga, but political rivals say it's a new beginning. Hunter Biden's attorney quickly released a statement saying it represented the final act of his investigation.
President Joe Biden's troubled son will plead guilty to federal tax charges and the illegal purchase of a handgun while he was an illicit drug user, the Justice Department wrote in a court filing Tuesday. Hunter Biden's attorney quickly released a statement saying it represented the final act of his investigation.
"Let’s be clear: the Department of Justice’s charges against President Biden’s son Hunter reveal a two-tiered system of justice," said House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer ."These charges against Hunter Biden and sweetheart plea deal have no impact on the Oversight Committee’s investigation. We will not rest until the full extent of President Biden’s involvement in the family’s schemes are revealed.
Trump and other GOP 2024 contenders were quick to make the same point, with Gov. Ron DeSantis slamming it as a sweetheart deal and Nikki Haley ripping the"double standard of justice." It's a messaging battle that will continue and accelerate as the 2024 presidential contest comes into focus.
