@George-K said in Hunter: Plea Deal:

That’s not really an investigation, it’s just oppo research and is taken about as seriously by people who don’t “just know” that the “Biden crime family” takes bribes from all comers.

[George K]

This meet your criteria?

Hunter Biden is charged with two violations of failure to pay income tax and one violation of unlawful possession of a firearm by a person prohibited. If convicted, he faces a maximum penalty of 12 months in prison on each of the tax charges and a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison on the firearm charge. Actual sentences for federal crimes are typically less than the maximum penalties. A federal district court judge will determine any sentence after taking into account the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and other statutory factors.

David C. Weiss, U.S. Attorney for the District of Delaware, made the announcement. The investigation is ongoing.

Which investigation is he referring to, the one Biden plans to plead guilty to or something else?

[Jon]

It absolutely does!

[Jon]

Maybe he’s going easy on these because there’s meatier stuff coming down the pike.

By the way, Wesley Snipes got 3 years for tax evasion.

Just sayin'.

He got three years for being black.

Welcome to America. Home of the free? More like home of racism.

Grammy-winning singer Lauryn Hill was sentenced Monday to three months in prison and an additional three months in home confinement for failing to pay taxes on about $1 million in earnings.

Hill, a 37-year-old South Orange resident, pleaded guilty last year in the case.

An inner-city black kid would get 5 years on the gun charge.

The absolute zenith of the white patriarchy... Where's the race baiters?

I've already done the orange is the new black joke on more than one occasion.

I guess we do have systemic racism after all.

I mentioned Wesley Snipes and Lauren Hill.

Here's another story of laws being enforced:

tl;dr version:

Guy shoots and kills a man who attacked him. He's being prosecuted, not for the killing, which was justified, but for improper registration of his firearms.

Fire-ARMS - police searched his apartment and found that the guns were unlicensed.

BTW, see where Huhter's lawyer said the laptop was never mentioned in discussions?

Why should it? FBI's only had it for four years. It's old news...

Actually, he said he "doesn't recall" if it was mentioned. That's different.

[Jon]

If the investigation is ongoing presumably that has to do with the contents of the laptop.

[Jolly]

Grassley not happy...

[Jon]

If the investigation is ongoing then presumably it now is focused on all the stuff he's going on about.

[Jolly]

Dude, the investigation is ongoing into a circular file.

I'd be surprised if it wasn't. It's what our vaunted DOJ has become.
