Hunter Biden Trial Jury Selection Begins Today on Drug & Gun Charges ~ VIDEO

Wilmington, DE – In a courtroom just a stone’s throw from President Biden’s campaign headquarters, Hunter Biden, the President’s son, faces trial on federal gun charges. This comes on the heels of former President Donald Trump’s recent felony conviction for …wait for it, “Falsifying Records,” thrusting the courtroom into the spotlight during a heated presidential election year.

The charges against Hunter stem from a 2018 firearms purchase. Prosecutors allege that he lied on a federal form about his drug use at the time, a serious offense that could potentially land him in prison for up to 25 years. However, it’s worth noting that first-time, nonviolent offenders rarely receive maximum sentences for such charges. Legal experts suggest that Hunter might be looking at mandatory enrollment in a firearms diversion program instead of significant prison time.

The context of this trial is especially significant. The plea deal that once shielded Hunter from severe penalties fell apart last July, much to the satisfaction of Trump’s congressional allies. They’ve been vocal in drawing parallels between Hunter’s legal woes and those of their own party’s presidential candidate, casting both men as political targets.

The trial, presided over by Judge Maryellen Noreika, a Trump appointee, is expected to last between three to five days.

The case is not just a legal battle for Hunter but a satisfying personal and political ordeal for President Biden. The prosecution, led by special counsel David Weiss, plans to air some of the Biden family’s most private moments, including testimonies from Hunter’s ex-wife and Hunter’s dead brother’s former partner, Hallie Biden.

This trial’s timing couldn’t be more challenging for President Biden. Just days after Trump’s conviction, which raised Trump over $200,000,000, the spotlight shifted to Biden’s son, potentially overshadowing Trump’s legal troubles. For the Biden campaign, this trial is a significant distraction, complicating efforts to capitalize on the recent conviction of the former President.

Hunter Biden’s legal troubles don’t end here. He faces a second trial in September on tax-related charges, further entangling the Biden family in courtroom dramas during a crucial election year. Despite these challenges, Hunter’s father remains steadfast in his support for the “smartest man I know…” In a statement, President Biden expressed his pride in his son’s resilience and strength in overcoming addiction; there was no mention of the cocaine found recently at the White House.

As the trial unfolds, it underscores the heightened scrutiny on the Biden family and the intense political climate leading up to the election. For many, the spectacle of this trial highlights the irony and hypocrisy of President Biden’s tough stance on drugs and guns, given that his own son is on trial for drug use while buying a gun. We hope for a fair trial and that Hunter does not get a pass simply because he is the President’s son.
