BIZARRE IRONY: Hunter Biden Case Takes a Strange Turn

Another day, another shocking revelation in the Biden family saga. Hunter Biden’s defense team promised to put President Joe Biden on the witness stand to testify if prosecutors brought criminal charges against his son. Hunter’s lawyer at the time, Chris Clark, made this promise after news leaked that an indictment would be forthcoming.
Politico broke this stunning news:
“Then [Chris Clark] issued a warning: If the Justice Department charged the president’s son, his lawyers would put the president on the witness stand.
‘President Biden now unquestionably would be a fact witness for the defense in any criminal trial,’ Clark wrote in a 32-page letter reviewed by POLITICO.
That letter, along with more than 300 pages of previously unreported emails and documents exchanged between Hunter Biden’s legal team and prosecutors, sheds new light on the fraught negotiations that nearly produced a broad plea deal. That deal would have resolved Biden’s most pressing legal issues — the gun purchase and his failure to pay taxes for several years — and it also could have helped insulate Biden from future prosecution by a Republican-led Justice Department.”
In fact, if the original investigation had gone as initially planned, no criminal charges AT ALL would have been filed against Hunter. Not even a “sweetheart” plea deal – no charges at all. Of course, Hunter’s plea deal famously collapsed. He didn’t get the planned full immunity.
In fact, Hunter Biden’s legal case gained so much publicity that even the New York Times felt compelled to take a deep dive into Hunter’s collapsed plea deal. According to a Times exposé, Special Counsel David Weiss initially planned not to prosecute the President’s son for tax crimes. But IRS whistleblowers exposed the Justice Department for hindering the investigation, and Weiss changed his mind.
Republicans believe that the IRS whistleblowers’ testimony changed the strategy for the plea deal, and Hunter’s lawyers now say the DOJ should prosecute the whistleblowers for their testimony. We applaud the IRS whistleblowers for shedding light on the DOJ’s corruption. Hunter Biden would have gotten off scot-free if not for these heroes, and the American people would never have been the wiser.
