Sen. Amy Klobuchar, Minnesota Democrat, on Sunday accused Republicans of political posturing ahead of 2024 in their outcry of preferential treatment for President Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, over gun and tax charges.
House Republicans say two IRS whistleblowers told lawmakers they recommended charging Hunter Biden with six felonies and five misdemeanors, but instead he pleaded guilty to two misdemeanors related to his federal income taxes. He also pleaded guilty to a felony offense for unlawfully possessing a firearm while suffering from substance abuse.
The charges against Hunter Biden were brought by a Trump-appointed Delaware U.S. attorney, David Weiss, as part of an independent investigation that Attorney General Merrick Garland said he did not exercise control over.
