Hunter Biden, son of President Joe Biden, is set to begin his trial on federal gun charges on June 3. This follows a series of legal maneuvers and appeals that sought to delay the proceedings, all of which were rejected by the courts. U.S. District Judge Maryellen Noreika will preside over the case in Delaware.
The charges stem from an incident in October 2018, where Hunter Biden allegedly lied about his drug use on a federal form to purchase a firearm.

He has admitted to struggling with addiction during that period but maintains that he did not break any laws.
The indictment includes three felony counts related to owning a gun while using drugs and making a false statement.

In a bid to postpone the trial, Hunter Biden's legal team argued that more time was needed to gather expert testimonies on addiction and the chain of custody for evidence. However, Judge Noreika, an appointee of former President Donald Trump, dismissed these arguments, emphasizing that the case was not overly complex and that sufficient time had already been allotted.
This trial comes after a plea deal intended to resolve the case without a trial fell apart in July 2023. The judge assigned to approve the deal raised multiple questions, leading to its collapse and setting the stage for the current proceedings.
The legal battle over these charges has been highly publicized, with Biden's defense claiming that the prosecution is politically motivated. However, the courts have consistently ruled against delaying the trial, underscoring the importance of addressing the charges promptly.
The trial, expected to last three to six days, will be closely watched, not only for its legal implications but also for its potential impact on the Biden administration as President Joe Biden campaigns for re-election.
I’m baffled that despite an insane amount of indisputable evidence of him breaking the law, Hunter Biden’s attorney’s don’t just throw in the towel and let Hunter spend a few months in prison where he and his whole family can apologize to the public for their many failures. But leftists and liberals are so damn unwilling to ever admit guilt, that only a jail sentence seems to shock them back to the reality in which we all live. You would think they’d know by now that it’s easier to ask for forgiveness than for the Media to work overtime to try to cover for your many sins until you pass away. Joe may not last a lot more years, so if I was him, I’d ask the public for forgiveness at the POTUS exit speech. At least he could tell the country that the USA is the greatest nation on Earth and to please don’t burn down our Blue cities like they did in 2020, no matter who is in office.
Lock him up and then get the rest of the clan too!
It’s blatantly obvious that what’s good for the goose isn’t good for the gander. The left has their set of rules but when the rest of us cry foul we’re accused of any number of things including insurrection. So far, there are enough facts to not only convict Hunter Biden but also put the rest of the Biden family in jail for their dealings with Russia and China. Too bad the media covers for them and calls the rest of us conspiracy theorists, a threat to democracy, and a cult. They have freedom of speech but we don’t. There will be a reckoning and they will have to answer fir their very real crimes.
