Hunter Biden could be charged with tax crimes

The FBI has gathered enough evidence to charge Hunter Biden with tax crimes and making a false statement to buy a gun, according to the BBC's US partner CBS News.

President Joe Biden's son has been under federal investigation since 2018.

The decision on whether to file criminal charges now rests with the US Attorney in Delaware.

A lawyer for Hunter said he had not been contacted by federal agents. He has repeatedly denied breaking the law.

The US Department of Justice has declined to comment.

Hunter Biden, 52, is a lawyer and lobbyist who has worked abroad including in China and Ukraine.

According to the Washington Post, federal agents began investigating him in 2018, and initially centred on finances related to his overseas businesses and consulting.

Over time, the investigation began to focus on whether Hunter properly reported his income and made false statements on paperwork used to purchase a firearm in 2018.

In a book published last year he had admitted to still being a heavy user of crack cocaine at that time. But the Washington Post reports that he said "no" on a federal form asking if he was "an unlawful user of, or addicted to, marijuana or any depressant, stimulant, narcotic drug or any other controlled substance".

Criminal charges stemming from falsehoods on gun-purchase forms remain rare and number in the hundreds each year.

Tell-all renews scrutiny of President Biden's son
What was Hunter Biden doing in China and Ukraine?
In a statement sent to CBS, a lawyer for the president's son said that he expected the Department of Justice to "diligently investigate and prosecute" those who leaked information about the investigation.

"As is proper and legally required, we believe the prosecutors in this case are diligently and thoroughly weighing not just evidence provided by agents, but also all the other witnesses in this case, including witnesses for the defence," the statement from lawyer Chris Clark said.

"That is the job of the prosecutors. They should not be pressured, rushed, or criticised for doing their job."

Mr Clark added that he has had no contact "whatsoever" with any federal investigators. He said any information from agents, which was cited by the Washington Post which first reported the story, was "inherently biased, one-sided, and inaccurate".

Hunter Biden has long been a target of scrutiny by former President Donald Trump and his political allies, who have alleged that his overseas business dealings indicate a pattern of corruption.

While the younger Biden has admitted to a troubled life and a previous "massive drug addiction", both he and President Biden have denied that he engaged in illegal activity.

He first admitted knowledge of an investigation in December 2020. In a statement at the time, Hunter Biden said he was "confident that a professional and objective review of these matters will demonstrate that I handled my affairs legally and appropriately, with the benefit of professional tax advisers."

In April, Joe Biden's chief of staff, Ron Klain, said the US president "is confident that his son didn't break the law" but that the matter would be left to the Justice Department and that the White House would not get involved.

The news of potential charges against Hunter, however, comes at a politically sensitive time for President Biden with just under a month to go until the 2022 US midterm elections.

Unlike the Trump sycophants I am pretty certain that every poster who has expressed support for Joe Biden - even if it was merely as a reaction to Trump - will be 100% behind the investigation and prosecution of Hunter or any other Joe Biden ally if they have broken laws.

I am a firm believer in, if you can't do the time, don't do the crime.
If guilty then he needs what ever the standard punishment is for that crime.
Jail or re-pay with interest, whatever is standard.
Nothing more, nothing less

yea if he committed crimes, investigate and throw him in prison if found guilty. i dont know anybody who defended Hunter, only GOPers acting like we are.

but one of the reasons why nobody is talking about hunter biden like that is because GOP found out that it's not an effective rallying cry for the conservative base. their own people dont even care like that.

and then dont get me started on that movie Breitbart hyped up. they managed to make a trash bum like Hunter Biden look cool as hell. dude was the very toxic alpha they're always saying is being canceled. dude is literally Andrew Tate, who the right wing defend non-stop. good job owning the libs, i guess.

If he’s guilty, I hope he gets the book thrown at him.

If Joe is still in office by the time Hunter gets tried/convicted (if that happens)... my guess is Joe pardons him...

Precedent for such pardons has been set unfortunately. Pardons for worse crimes than this, for those close to the president.

I don’t think he would but I would be extremely upset if he did.

If they have actual evidence and it's not part of the conspiracy theories charge him.

Would you pardon your son? I know Donny would pardon his kids. Is it right? No. Is it allowed? Yes.

I believe that if he broke the law he should be prosecuted. I'm not really concerned about what the FBI has to say about it per say. The decision rests on whether a prosecutor feels the case is strong enough to press charges and take it to court just like every other case. If a prosecutor feels there is enough evidence to take the case to court let the chips fall where they may.

But here's a prediction either way. I'm pretty sure the GOP will take the senate in November. Watch a GOP controlled senate appoint a councel or special investigation to do everything they can to try to connect the president with these crimes no matter the fact there appears to be nothing that indicates it's true.

there was a tax liability that Hunter Biden was responsible for., He has paid it. But he an still be charged with tax fraud if the IRS decides to do so .. just like if you and I did it.

Hunter Biden could be charged with tax fraud…:???

Donald Trump could be charged with tax fraud….:???

Anyone could be charged with tax fraud.

Write the article when there is actual news to report.

I agree.

CBS did an independent study and determined Hunter really had a laptop!!

Oh my god I have a laptop, am I in trouble????

Don't worry, it will take two years for them to find it -- even if you hand it to them.

This Hunter Biden Twitter dump is crazy and scary.

I can't believe they just named names and released screen shots of emails of these people suppressing information because they didn't want a repeat of 2016.


Elon is the best thing that could have happened for the 60% of us Americans.

Good thing Hunter wasn’t on the Democratic ticket in 2016… that said I’d still vote for Hunter Biden over donny to this day.

Somehow people are trying to make it about Biden or Trump.

The biggest issue has to do with government/politicians and tech firms collusion.

I am more interested in where Don junior gets his coke from.

The point I was making was not about either D or R. it was that these politicians/ govt officials have too much control and are blatently manipulating people.

Both the election of 2020 and 2022 prove convincingly this is false.

Should be in jail and his father too.

Yes Don Jr. and the Donald should both be in jail.

Interestiner and interestiner. Nothing to see here, folks. The dem's thought they had it covered up.

Oh the terror! LMAO, the 'Twitter files' is a nonsensical post by Matt Taibbi. Nonsensical in that BOTH SIDES DO IT, and there is no there, there. Trump just disappeared anything that made him look bad, paying off pornstars, threatening lawsuits against schools who might share his grades, lying about his taxes, etc. Meanwhile, Biden's team went through normal channels of communication with the social media giant and left a paper trail. File this under BIG WHOOP.

I'm not saying Hunter Biden is an angel.. To be honest, I don't know much about him.

But for any group of people to want his hide on a spit but who allow a former President to go free after he stole Top Secret documents and kept them in his home and who also incited an insurrection against the USA and who now wants to rip up the constitution have their heads up their collective Arses.

This is gonna end up a lot like the Hillary Clinton debacle. How much time did Hillary spend in prison? Idiots.. Flaming Jack Arses..

At least when they went after Trump there was a real life smoking gun and if not for blind political loyalty to Trump, he'd have been removed from office.

If he's found Guilty, convict him,, But until Trump supporters and Republicans and Conservatives and The Like figure out how wrong it is to support a man that has turned this countries election process into a joke and who incited an insurrection and who not thinks we should cut the constitution,,, then you have no room to talk.

For years they have stayed silent about trump paying off a porn star, saying he can grab women by the pu$$y, cheating on all three of his wives, undermining, and now even saying the constitution should be ignored, inciting a mob to attack the Capital and the list goes on.

But seem so upset over Hunter's laptop? My what an odd little bunch they are.

Lol….If there was anything on the laptop that was incriminating, it would have been all over the internet by now. They’ll parrot the same line they did with Hillary. Where are the missing personal emails? Lol

J/C The thread topic is Hunter Biden. Some try to stay on topic, some try to steer away.

https://www.voanews.com/a/trump-adu...attorney-general-for-fraud-/6757056.html

Former U.S. President Donald Trump, his global family business and three of his adult children were accused Wednesday by the New York state attorney general of engaging in a “staggering” fraud for more than a decade by overvaluing their assets by billions of dollars to enrich themselves

You are only talking about this thread, right?

Hunter Biden is just DJT Jr. with less weirdness and drugs. And Hunter Biden is a complete weirdo junkie.

If they had been raised together, they would be the same person, but better families make better kids, even when they are lost in their own BS. And make no mistake, they are both crooks and losers.

Sad. Sad little man you are. What about what about what about. Don jr. is weirder than hunter? And uses more drugs? Must be nice in your pot enhanced life.

Trump supporter.
