Hunter Biden's plea agreement... Your thoughts?

[SpaceGalaxy]

Former President Trump said Tuesday that the plea agreement reached with Hunter Biden amounts to a "traffic ticket" for President Biden's son, and said it shows the justice system in the United States is "corrupt."

"They gave him a traffic ticket and cleared everything up," Trump told Fox News Digital after Biden's plea deal was announced. "It is a disgrace to the system, it is a disgrace to America, it is a very unfair situation, it is prosecutorial misconduct, and it is election interference — all wrapped up into one."

I would challenge anyone here on this site to hide millions of dollars from the IRS. Let’s see how that would work out for you.
By the way, is anyone asking the important question, where did Hunter get the millions of dollars that he was hiding? Anyone? Anyone?
Now for the lying on a federal gun form which is punishable by up to 10 years in jail. Hunter lied to get a pistol which later was thrown away in a garbage can near a high school loaded. Anyone going to ask the question why this gun was thrown away? Anyone going to ask why a gun was near a school which is a gun free zone? The responses I see to this question on this site are void of any thought at all, people Just echoing MSNBC and CNN. Think for yourself people. There should be questions asked not a super fast sweetheart plea deal. Love him or hate him Trump has been investigated for 7 years continuously Russia collusion (proven hoax), going after him for taxes (did they find anything? NO). Paying a porn star to shut her mouth (Alvin Brass who lets violent criminals back on the streets everyday is still working on this one) but again there isn’t a crime here. The justice system is weaponized against some and turns there head to others. there is a double standard in the justice system and it effects everyone here not just Trump and Hunter. If laws don’t apply to everyone evenly then there are no laws.

We know what's going on and now they can't get him with that double "whatever it's called." Dems are getting ahead of this shit from what I see and they'll keep the pressure on with their fake trumped up charges. CYOA tactics... and every fool thinking it's great won't be laughing when it's them with their face against the wall. This bullshit needs to end or it's going to go full dictator and ole Hunter there will be smoking his crack pipe as the new president. I don't feel great about admitting that, but it's the truth. Also didn't some guy get wacked because he was going to testify... fucking A, we're so fucked. ... and all this because some people out there hate mean tweets? We're so fucked.

Most people have broken laws before but Trump spent five years trying to punish a target that interfered with his goals. For example, many people cross traffic at illegal red or yellow lights when they think it’s safe. Many people lie about their age to get discounts at stores. Many people have tried marijuana or cheated on a test or lied on a resume or forged a doctors note or bought porn while under age or bought alcohol for a late teenage cousin not legally allowed to drink by a few weeks or months or made a racist comment with their friends. All of that is illegal. Slandering somebody or saying untrue evils about somebody that you believe are true is illegal, not letting somebody rent your home because of their race or marital status or foreign name or religion is illegal. Fact is, hunter is not uncommon among law breakers.

So it's okay because he's a Democrat and not Trump?

[Anonymous]

He owed back taxes, which he paid with penalties and he lied on a government form for a firearm purchase. It’s not like he compromised national security or tried to overturn an election or anything. Remember that Roger Stone avoided jail time by paying $1.7 million in back taxes. Deals like this are typical when someone makes the effort to pay what they owe. As for the firearm, thousands of Americans lie on the purchase forms every year but prosecutions are rare. It’s almost never enforced. Hunter was treated pretty much like anyone else would be despite the Republican’s hyperventilating act.

[Lliam]

Nobody asking how he got the money. How convenient for Joe.

[Opinion Owner]

@Lliam You don’t really pay attention to things do you? . The House Oversight Committee (Republican led I might add) thoroughly investigated the Biden family’s business dealings and found no evidence of wrongdoing in May. What factual basis is there to keep fishing? This is the end of the Hunter Biden saga and it was a big nothing burger.

[Lliam]

Hunter's dealings in Ukraine and China? And Joe had nothing to do with it?
Do you trust the Oversight Committee to uncover criminality and corruption? How reassuring to be told that everything is fine and there is nothing to see.

[Opinion Owner]

@Lliam Ultimately you need some evidence of a crime to continue spending taxpayer money on investigations. You cannot indefinitely engage in fishing expeditions for purely political reasons. Most of this garbage is being fueled by conspiracy theorists and isn’t fact based. If no one with investigative authority can find those facts, isn’t it reasonable to assume they don’t exist? You’re continuing to believe in something without evidence to support that belief. It’s time to face reality.

[Lliam]

That's like saying that Hillary was "thoroughly" investigated and no charges were brought. Therefore, she's innocent.
It depends on your connections. Besides, politicians rarely get investigated, let alone convicted. It's all a big club and you ain't in it. Their job description is corruption.
Yet, Democrats continue to hypocritically yammer about Trump, Trump, Trump.

[Opinion Owner]

@Lliam Ultimately the DOJ could not even make a criminal case against Hillary. No it doesn’t mean that theoretical crimes might not exist somewhere but your continued belief in her guilt is politically motivated and not based on any real world evidence. You’re a prime example of the political right that lives in a bubble of its own creation. Political operatives create these conspiracy theories to manipulate you. You buy in hook, line and sinker and then want the government to search until they magically find evidence of these fabricated offenses. Trump is mostly a different animal. The Steele dossier turned out to be mostly a bust but his impeachments and current indictments have been evidence based. None of his current legal troubles are a conspiracy theory. There’s a mountain of evidence.

[Lliam]

Okay, oh wise one.

[Opinion Owner]

@Lliam If you’re the wise one, then make a fact based argument to support Biden or Clinton’s indictment. If you can, it would be national news since no one else can seem to make one but here’s your chance.

[Lliam]

I have no interest is trying to prove anything to you. It would be a pointless exercise.

Do you really think the national news reports anything that's not in line with the official narrative? It's job is to create the illusion of consensus and keep people dumb.

[Opinion Owner]

@Lliam I think your tinfoil hat is on a little too tight. So the news isn’t real but internet conspiracies are? Got it.

[Lliam]

How convenient to call people who question the echo chamber and do research "conspiracy theorists". The CIA coined that term and you bought it.

I don't claim to have all the facts but you apparently do because you watch TV and listen to NPR.

Oswald assassinated JFK, 911 was a sneak attack by Arab terrorists, CARS-covid-2 came from bats, the jab is safe and effective, Hillary's emails were thoroughly investigated, ...

[Opinion Owner]

@Lliam You offer no evidence that any of those claims are true yet say you’re not a conspiracy theorist? You’re the textbook example. Lol An alternative explanation of an event not backed by facts or evidence is a theory. A plot to cover up the truth is a conspiracy. Your beliefs fit the plain definitions of those words. It’s not some shadowy CIA hit job. You are a conspiracy theorist, plain and simple. You live in a self-created reality. I’m not sure why so many people choose to believe in fantasy but it’s important to keep challenging nonsense. Where are the facts and evidence to credibly dispute the official findings in any of these events, which do have documented evidence to back up? That’s the question that always trips up a conspiracy theorist. At best, all you can do is try to blur the line between fantasy and reality by casting dispersions on the sources of fact that don’t jive with your fantasies. It’s a laughable and predictable pattern that you’re demonstrating in spades here. Lol

[Lliam]

Are you still here? Ho hum. Go back to watching TV. It will tell you what you're supposed to believe and you'll be happy.

[Opinion Owner]

Once again, no facts or evidence offered. Just nut job bullshit. Lol

[Red_Arrow]

Biden reached a plea deal and will carry the guilty verdict from now on. Very common. Trump caused the Jan 6 insurrection at the Capitol and has not been charged. It has been proven that he broke many laws attempting to change the electors and the votes from various states. He is currently charged with many felony counts over his illegal keeping of classified documents, showing them to many people not entitled to see them, lying to the FBI when they came to get them. He has a judge that he appointed doing everything she can to kill all motions against him and who has the power to find him not guilty even with all the evidence and Trump's own statements proving he is guilty. And the Republicans in Congress are supporting covering up all that he has done and is still doing. And you clowns are upset that Biden's much, much smaller crime has not sent him to the electric chair!

[Lliam]

How much Kool Aid a day do you drink?

[Uannoyme]

Now they can say " see we went after Hunter Biden. Nothing more to see here." .

More IRS agents will fix the tax dodgers, like Trump. So thank goodness the Democrats increased their funding to catch people like this. Illegal gun? Hilarious any Republican would complain about that. They love when everyone has guns no matter what their situation. Someone trying to take away a gun from a different drug addict and it's an assault on the 2nd amendment. It would be hilariously hypocritical of any Republican to complain about either of these.

[Drewtate]

Just the tip of the iceberg. Biden is hoping the rest can be swept under the rug.

[LiamJHayden]

There is still an ongoing investigation on other issues, but realistically if you or I did this we'd be facing years in federal prison.

[Anonymous]

Dude got a light slap on the wrist. Only rulers get that kind of treatment, and only when they're playing the right game.

[Anonymous]

The corrupt Biden crime family can get away with anything they want. Hunter's gun charge alone would get any of us 10 years in prison.

[exitseven]

not a surprise. If I did not pay taxes on a million and a half I would be going to jail for a couple of years.

[gorydetails]

A Central American dictatorship seems less corrupt than the Biden administration.

[chicken_nugget24]

Doesn't matter who you are. If you have money and power. You are corrupt

[Anonymous]

Nothing major here. Doesn't compare to Trump's crimes.

[whistlingwh0res]

I think that trump is running out of business and he will do anything to make money in desperate

[007kingifrit]

pure corruption. only civil war can fix this broken republic

[OddBeMe]

You know we never wanted the fck. You guys can have him.

[Anonymous]

Everyone does realize Trump is going to be reelected regardless in 2024, right?

[chicken_nugget24]

I doubt that. That de Santos guy has a better chance getting nominated

[Anonymous]

Total joke, and just more proof about DOJ being politicized.

[Mac-One]

Favored deal that nobody else would get.

[Anonymous]

Who cares what Trump thinks?

[Sasahara]

Leftists who keeps seething about him does, otherwise we would have heard a whole lot less about him

[Opinion Owner]

That’s definitely part of the problem. The other part is Trump running his mouth. I’m tired of politicians talking.

[DextroShade]

Everything Trump said is accurate.
