Why Hunter Biden’s pardon threatens America’s legal system



Justice is the cornerstone of any thriving society. Without it, civilizations crumble under the weight of corruption, inequality, and mistrust. America’s survival depends on the integrity of its justice system — but today, that system is buckling under the strain of double standards.

You’ve heard the mantra: “No one is above the law.” Democrats repeat it endlessly when targeting Donald Trump. Yet, when Joe Biden pardoned his son Hunter, that mantra was exposed as a lie.

The Hunter Biden pardon is more than a legal matter — it’s a profound betrayal of American principles.

Hunter’s pardon isn’t just another political controversy; it’s a dagger to the heart of justice in America.

Two standards of justice

Consider the accusations leveled against Donald Trump. A supposed quid pro quo with Ukraine was painted as treasonous. The infamous “perfect phone call” became the subject of an impeachment trial. Even the discredited Russian collusion narrative consumed years of investigations. In each case, we were told Trump’s actions threatened the very fabric of democracy.

In the end, what did we find? A web of lies — there was no collusion; there was no crime. Despite this, Trump’s name remains synonymous with corruption in the minds of millions.

Compare the Democrats’ treatment of Trump to that of Hunter Biden. Evidence points to millions of dollars flowing into Biden family accounts from hostile foreign nations. Hunter himself admitted to tax fraud, violating laws that protect America’s sovereignty. Even more damning, some of this money came from adversaries like China — countries actively working against our national interests. We used to call laundering money from enemies of the state “treason.” Does that apply to Hunter Biden?

Instead of facing justice, Hunter Biden received a get-out-of-jail-free card from his father.

A pardon that shatters trust

The Hunter Biden pardon is more than a legal matter — it’s a profound betrayal of American principles. Justice demands accountability, yet the president used his power to shield his son from it.

Imagine if the situation were reversed. If Donald Trump had pardoned one of his children under similar circumstances, would the media remain silent? Would political leaders shrug it off as “compassionate”?

Of course not — the outrage would be deafening, and rightly so. The blatant abuse of power would be called out for what it is: corruption.

The Hunter Biden pardon sets a dangerous precedent. It tells the American people that justice isn’t blind — it sees everything, including your political connections. If you’re powerful enough, the law becomes irrelevant.

The people who pay the price

While Hunter Biden escapes accountability, ordinary Americans are crushed under the weight of an ever-growing “lawfare” system.

Think of Daniel Penny, the Marine veteran facing manslaughter charges for stopping a violent threat on a New York subway. Penny acted to protect others, yet he may go to prison for it.

Think of the grandmothers charged for “parading” at the Capitol on January 6, or the pro-life activists arrested for praying outside abortion clinics.

These people didn’t have powerful parents or political allies. They didn’t have access to the legal privileges reserved for the elite.

Hunter Biden broke serious laws — laws designed to protect our nation from foreign influence. Yet instead of prison, he received a pardon. What message does that send to the millions of Americans trying to do the right thing?

A nation at a crossroads

America’s justice system is failing. When the powerful evade accountability while the average citizen is crushed under an expanding web of laws, society begins to collapse.

The Hunter Biden pardon is more than a personal matter; it’s a public crisis. It undermines trust in the justice system and deepens the divide between the powerful and the powerless.

America must choose: Will we uphold justice and rebuild trust, or will we let corruption and inequality drive us to ruin?

If justice isn’t for everyone, it isn’t justice at all. And without justice, America cannot survive.

Hunter Biden withdraws request for new gun trial



Hunter Biden and his defense attorneys have now withdrawn their request for a new trial after Biden was convicted of federal gun charges last month.

The first son's defense team seems quite indecisive about the motion for a new trial. The team first filed it on June 17, less than a week after a federal jury found Biden guilty on three felony counts related to a weapon he purchased in Delaware several years ago. But about an hour after filing the motion, the defense withdrew it.

Even CNN acknowledged that the defense's efforts to secure a new trial for Biden, 54, were 'clumsy.'

On June 24, the team filed the motion again, insisting that District Judge Maryellen Noreika did not have jurisdiction over the trial because the Third U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Philadelphia had not handed over the necessary mandate.

On Tuesday, the defense reconsidered and withdrew the motion once again, admitting that the team had misunderstood the circuit court's ruling, which effectively returned jurisdiction to Noreika by clearly stamping on the document "certified order issued in lieu of mandate."

In their counter filings, prosecutors, led by special counsel David Weiss, mercilessly teased the defense's understanding of appellate procedures.

"The defendant’s motion is meritless and is based on his apparent misunderstanding of appellate practice and his failure to read the Third Circuit’s Orders," they wrote in a motion filed on Monday. Elsewhere in the filing, prosecutors noted the defense team's apparent "failure to read" previous court orders and described the motion for a new trial as a "laughable tale of the mystery of the missing mandates."

Even CNN acknowledged that the defense's efforts to secure a new trial for Biden, 54, were "clumsy."

Hunter Biden still denies any wrongdoing and intends to appeal his conviction. He is scheduled to be sentenced sometime later this year.

Biden also faces federal charges in connection with over $1 million in alleged tax evasion. That trial is scheduled to begin in Los Angeles in September.

EXPLOSIVE new details in Hunter Biden case; could he be a CIA asset?



Damning new details in Hunter Biden’s case have emerged, one of which Sara Gonzales calls “very explosive.”

According to whistleblower Gary Shapley, the CIA blocked federal investigators from interviewing Hunter Biden’s "sugar brother" Hollywood lawyer Kevin Morris during the five-year tax probe into Hunter’s tax crimes.

The House Oversight Committee and Judiciary Committee chairman were informed by the whistleblower that the intelligence agency stopped IRS and Justice Department investigators from interviewing Morris in August 2021.

The whistleblower also claimed that two DOJ officials were “summoned to discuss Kevin Morris” to CIA headquarters in Langley, Virginia, for their investigation into Hunter Biden.

“They were provided a classified briefing in relation to Morris, and, as a result, we could no longer pursue him as a witness,” Gonzales reads. “What it said,” she adds, shocked.

Apparently, it was unclear how the CIA became aware that Morris was a potential witness and why agents were not told about the meeting in advance or invited to participate in it — which is a “deviation of normal investigative processes.”

“You know what else is a deviation of normal investigative processes? For the CIA to be involved in a domestic tax fraud investigation,” Gonzales says. “I don’t think the CIA is supposed to be involved in these sorts of domestic matters.”

“So, why in the hell is the CIA breaking the law seemingly to intervene in a domestic investigation? Who is the CIA asset? It’s got to be one of them, right? It’s got to be either Hunter Biden or his buddy Kevin Morris,” she says, adding, “It’s making more sense as to why Hunter was involved in so many foreign companies, why he was involved in Burisma, why he was involved in CEFC.”

“So, I think America needs to know: Is Joe Biden’s son a CIA asset?”

REVOLTING: New York Times OMITS key detail to protect Hunter Biden



The liberal media is working overtime to cover for the Biden family.

In a recent statement Hunter Biden gave publicly in front of the Capitol, he told reporters one thing, and the New York Times printed another.

“For six years, MAGA Republicans, including members of the House committees who are in a closed-door session right now, have impugned my character; invaded my privacy; attacked my wife, my children, my family, and my friends,” Biden began.

“They ridiculed my struggle with addiction, they belittled my recovery, and they have tried to dehumanize me — all to embarrass and damage my father, who has devoted his entire public life to service,” he continued.

“I am here,” Hunter added. “Let me state as clearly as I can: my father was not financially involved in my business,” he added.

In the NYT piece on his press conference, writers omitted the word “financially.”

“So, the average person reading the paper wouldn’t see ‘financially,’” Dave Rubin observes.

“Now, it might be true to some extent — in the most, sort of, like, strict legal sense that Joe Biden was not involved financially. Meaning that he didn’t write the contracts and everything,” Rubin continues.

“But was he involved financially in the meta sense? Like, why did Hunter have the job in the first place? Of course he was involved financially. We know that there are also financial records of Hunter Biden paying Joe Biden money and Joe Biden then using some of the money,” he adds.

In the wake of impeachment inquiry announcement, here’s a RECAP of everything we know Joe Biden did



Yesterday, House Speaker Kevin McCarthy announced that a formal impeachment inquiry into Joe Biden’s involvement in Hunter Biden’s business dealings would soon commence.

All we have to say is: it’s about time.

Mark Levin agrees and recaps everything we already know about Sleepy Joe, or shall we say Sneaky Joe?

“The Ukrainian prosecutor who was fired as a direct result of Joe Biden’s threatening to withhold $1 billion in U.S. aid has specifically stated that he was investigating Burisma, the corrupt company that Hunter Biden was serving on,” Levin recalls, but “Joe obstructed that investigation.”

We also know that “Joe Biden spoke to an untold number of Hunter Biden’s foreign clients, including top officials with ties to the Communist Party regime in China.”

But it doesn’t end there.

“Joe Biden knew, as a matter of fact, that Hunter was representing officially, or even unofficially, numerous foreign businesses,” and “that’s more than enough ... to be required to register under FARA.”

“Therefore, Joe Biden assisted his son in violating FARA … he’s a co-conspirator,” Levin asserts.

We know that “Joe Biden’s staff and Hunter’s business associates were in constant contact” as well.

“I guess they were just buddies,” Levin jokes.

If Barr had the opportunity to appoint a special counsel to investigate Hunter Biden, then WHY didn’t he?



President Donald Trump fired Bill Barr when he thought the then-attorney general wasn’t doing enough to investigate illicit campaign activity. According to Mark Levin, this is why Barr is now “on a seek-and-destroy mission.”

“So much so that he has defended the documents case against Trump, even though if you step back and say to yourself: ‘You’re prepared to put this man in prison for the rest of his life so he dies in prison over the documents case?’ Are you kidding somebody?” Levin asks.

Barr had also refused to appoint a special counsel in the Hunter Biden scandal — and it’s coming back to haunt him.

“By not appointing a special counsel, Bill Barr in effect limited the authority of the investigation,” Levin says, before playing a clip of Barr being called out on his decision by a news anchor.

“Do you believe a special counsel should be appointed now on the Hunter Biden matter, and do you regret not appointing one?” the anchor asks Barr.

Barr tells him no, he doesn’t regret it because “in order to appoint a special counsel, you have to have a conflict, or should have a conflict of interest. I had no conflict of interest.”

Levin isn’t buying it.

“He was appointed by Donald Trump. Hunter Biden is the son of the incoming president. That certainly creates an appearance of a conflict of interest,” Levin comments. “This is what we call bull crap,” he adds.

While Barr did not appoint a special counsel, Levin believes that as soon as a Republican is back in office, that person need to take things up a notch.

“They need to appoint a special counsel to investigate Joe Biden.”

Send THIS to a Biden voter



Hunter Biden just might be the most irresponsible criminal of all time, and he isn't trying to hide it.

Leaving his laptop at a computer repair shop is among one of the self-defeating things he’s done, giving America all sorts of insights into what he — and his father — have been up to.

“You can say, ‘Oh, well, Joe Biden didn’t know any of this,’ but you can’t say there’s no evidence,” Stu Burgiere says.

And even the Washington Post is airing the receipts.

The Post brought attention to a contentious debate during which Joe Biden claimed his son made no money in China. The outlet then mentioned that in court last week, Hunter said he earned hundreds of thousands of dollars from Chinese business deals.

Then, the House GOP released bank records of the payments Hunter Biden received from Russian oligarchs and others, and the total cleared was $20 million.

Stu recalls that the response by the left and the media was to say something along the lines of, “They showed $20 million being transferred to all sorts of members of the Biden family, but not directly to Joe. Where’s the proof? Where’s the evidence of the transfer to Joe?”

“First of all, are we children here? The guy's vice president of the United States,” Stu continues. “He’s not going to get a Venmo from some Russian oligarch. That’s not how this works.”

Stu notes that while the media seems willing to sweep any foreign business dealings by the Biden Crime Family under the rug, they spent nearly all their airtime trying to take down Trump for supposedly colluding with Russia.

“This is the same media that spent years and years and years and years on Russia, with every little development every day being ‘the walls are closing in and evidence has finally come to prove all our accusations against Donald Trump,’ and that evidence never showed up,” Stu adds.

CBS reporter makes critical observation about the timing, political ramifications of David Weiss' special counsel appointment



Attorney General Merrick Garland on Friday appointed U.S. attorney David Weiss as special counsel in the investigation of Hunter Biden.

The move, CBS News senior correspondent Catherine Herridge explained, has significant political ramifications for Republicans investigating allegations of corruption involving President Joe Biden and the first son.

"A former federal prosecutor I spoke to just before this event said to me: the appointment of a special counsel would have the effect of delaying a resolution on the Hunter Biden matter, in his opinion, and it would certainly delay any anticipated testimony from [Weiss] to Republicans on Capitol Hill, who have been seeking that testimony for several months," Herridge reported after Garland's announcement.

— (@)

Republicans reacted with the same concern but will still push Weiss to cooperate with their ongoing investigations.

At a press conference, Garland said Weiss asked for special counsel powers on Tuesday, and he agreed to grant that power.

Special counsel regulations give the attorney general sole power over special counsel appointments. But those same regulations state, "The Special Counsel shall be selected from outside the United States Government." Weiss is currently an employee of the U.S. government in his capacity as the U.S. attorney over Delaware.

Meanwhile, Weiss revealed in new court filings on Friday that the Hunter Biden plea deal has collapsed, and the case will likely go to trial.

In June, Weiss announced that Hunter Biden was charged with two misdemeanor tax crimes and a felony gun charge. Biden agreed to plead guilty to the tax charges but would receive pretrial diversion for the felony firearm charge (an unusual prosecutorial decision). But the deal broke down last month when U.S. District Court Judge Maryellen Noreika refused to approve it.

In subsequent discussions with Hunter Biden's lawyers, Weiss said the plea deal broke down completely.

"Following additional negotiations after the hearing held on July 26, 2023, the parties are at an impasse and are not in agreement on either a plea agreement or a diversion agreement," Weiss said in a court filing.

In a separate filing, Weiss asked the court to dismiss the charges against Hunter Biden so that he can prosecute Biden in another jurisdiction, either in the Central District of California or the District of Columbia. Additionally, Weiss indicated that Biden may go to trial because he left the hearing last month having pleaded not guilty.

Importantly, Weiss explained Biden cannot waive his right to challenge the court venue because he may bring new charges Biden does not know about.

"The Government, in the exercise of its prosecutorial discretion, is considering what tax charges to bring in another district and may elect to bring the same charges set forth in the instant information or different ones," Weiss wrote. "As such, a waiver now is not and could not be knowing because the Defendant is unaware of what charges he would be waiving a venue challenge to."

The development appears to corroborate information claimed by two IRS whistleblowers that Weiss was hamstrung and was not free to bring charges against Biden outside of Delaware.

In a statement, Hunter Biden's attorney, Chris Clark, said there is no wrongdoing outside of Delaware that his client could be prosecuted for.

"It is hard to see why he would have proposed such a resolution if there were other offenses he could have successfully prosecuted, and we are aware of none," Clark said.

But, according to Weiss' filing for a venue change, the alleged crimes were not committed in Delaware, which is why he is seeking to have the charges in Delaware dismissed without prejudice and the venue changed.

"After [last month's] hearing, the parties continued negotiating but reached an impasse. A trial is therefore in order," Weiss said. "And that trial cannot take place in this District because, as explained, venue does not lie here."
