Hunter Biden, the infamous son of President Joe Biden, has been caught accepting a whopping $3,101,258 from Romanian business partner Gabriel Popoviciu during a time when Joe was busy charming his way through the vice presidency. Special Counsel David Weiss, in a recent court filing, revealed that this cash influx was aimed at “influencing U.S. government agencies.” While Weiss stopped just short of accusing Hunter of cozying up to the Obama administration, it seems that anything resembling accountability is still a distant dream for the Biden clan.
In a stunning twist, Weiss chose to focus on Hunter’s alleged tax violations rather than the far more salacious Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) violations, even though many see this as a blatant miscarriage of justice. After all, who wouldn’t want to sweep under the rug the allegations that a president’s son might have been acting as a foreign agent? It’s a classic case of the DOJ falling short when it comes to holding the powerful accountable.

However, Weiss still has the option to slap Hunter with FARA charges, especially since his sweet plea deal went down faster than a lead balloon. This deal, which was supposed to grant Hunter fancy immunity, has already fallen apart under scrutiny, leaving Weiss filing separate gun and tax charges in Delaware and California. Tax trials are set for September, and one has to wonder if the courtroom will be the place where the Bidens finally face the music.
The court document highlights that the DOJ plans to showcase evidence linked not only to Popoviciu but also to the Chinese Communist Party-tied CEFC China Energy Co. and the notorious Burisma Holdings. More absurdly, the evidence will supposedly demonstrate that Hunter did virtually nothing in return for the millions he raked in from these entities, which raises the question: did Hunter ever even bother to show up for work? With a payout of $83,000 a month from Burisma, courtesy of his father’s foreign policy positioning, it’s hard to believe he was overworked.
The Oversight Committee’s investigation has unveiled some eyebrow-raising connections, including a $3 million wire transfer from CEFC, leading to a $1.3 million payout to four Biden family members. While the Biden camp tries to downplay these transactions, one can’t help but think that if any other family had their finances scrutinized to this degree, they’d be in handcuffs by now. Plus, let’s not forget that Hunter’s lucrative arrangement with Burisma came just as his father took center stage in U.S.-Ukraine relations, which is the icing on this ethically questionable cake.
Additionally, Hunter has been slapped with nine tax charges, which include allegations of willful tax evasion. He’s accused of neglecting to pay taxes for several consecutive years, all while living high on the hog. The maximum possible sentence could land him in prison for a staggering 42 years if he’s convicted on all counts. Just imagine a guy with a lifestyle like his having to reside in the clink! But will that ever happen? With the Biden administration appearing as if it’s navigating through ethical questions with the grace of a three-legged elephant, the future of justice for Hunter remains as questionable as his business ethics.
