House Speaker Kevin McCarthy on Tuesday railed against the Justice Department in response to federal prosecutors’ plea deal with Hunter Biden on tax evasion on gun charges.
in response to federal prosecutors’ plea deal with Hunter Biden on tax evasion on gun charges.
“Well, I’m just wondering how he’s pleading guilty to two tax misdemeanors where he got millions of dollars from foreign entities, and I don’t know what was paid,” Mr. McCarthy said. “But the way they got paid, it came through one shell company to another shell company that paid others in the family, and then they never paid their taxes,” Mr. McCarthy said. “And how he dealt with a firearm? Is this the same way other Americans get treated?”
David Weiss, the U.S. attorney for Delaware, said in a court notice that Mr. Biden would admit to the gun charge and enter a Pretrial Diversion Agreement which is an alternative to the judicial system that potentially avoids a criminal record.
