Hunter Biden has been found guilty of buying a gun while being a crack addict.
Yes, that’s a federal crime.
The jury “heard testimony from Hunter Biden’s ex-wife and former girlfriends,” UK’s Mirror explained yesterday, “and were shown photos of him with drug paraphernalia and other salacious evidence to make the case that he had lied when he checked ‘no’ on the form at a gun shop asking whether he was ‘an unlawful user of, or addicted to’ drugs.”
While the U.S. President’s son is guilty as charged, the prosecution was almost as bogus as Trump’s.
Rep. Thomas Massie (R‑Ky.) put it best, on X: “Hunter might deserve to be in jail for something, but purchasing a gun is not it. There are millions of marijuana users who own guns in this country, and none of them should be in jail for purchasing or possessing a firearm against current laws.”
Elon Musk, who owns X (ex-Twitter), concurred: “I agree. He (and others) should be in jail for impugning the integrity of the United States by taking bribes for political favors, but not for this pseudo-crime.”
But pseudo-crimes are what the Department of Justice, and your local lawfare Democratic prosecutors, specialize in.
“They picked the gun charge because it was the only one not attached to Joe Biden,” explained Natalie F. Danelishen. “They also convicted Hunter Biden because they needed a fall guy so that Trump’s 34 felonies look less like political prosecution. Now ‘Justice’ seems fair. It’s a chess game.”
Exactly. No matter what the president says, or Merrick Garland says, or the talking heads on cable news say, it’s a scam.
Set Hunter free — and prosecute him, his uncle and his father for their evident corruption.
This is Common Sense. I’m Paul Jacob.
