The Real Reason Joe Biden Pardoned Hunter | 12/2/24

Hunter Biden's Pardon is a Golden Opportunity for Trump to DO THIS...

President Biden has issued a pardon for his son Hunter that covers any crimes committed over the past 10 years. That would include any possible fraudulent dealings with the Ukrainian energy company Burisma or the Chinese Communist Party. So, is Biden just trying to protect himself? Glenn breaks it all down and also explains how Donald Trump can still bring criminals to justice: Biden only pardoned Hunter and, by extension, himself. But anyone else who was involved in the Biden family’s shady business dealings is still fair game, especially if Trump’s pick for FBI Director, Kash Patel, declassifies everything...

In the run-up to the 2024 Presidential election, President Joe Biden vowed not to use his presidential authority to pardon his son, Hunter Biden. He has doubled down multiple times through states and his press secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre, but now he has backtracked and pardoned his son, who was convicted of lying on an ATF (Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives) Form 4473 and was accused of tax evasion.

Hunter Biden was arrested and successfully prosecuted for lying on an ATF Form 4473 that he filled out when he purchased a revolver from a Delaware gun shop. The firearm was recovered from a dumpster after his lover and dead brother’s wife disposed of it. When Hunter purchased the handgun, he was an addicted user of crack cocaine. Hunter would mark that he was not an unlawful user of drugs on the form.

After being charged, the younger Biden was offered a sweetheart deal not in line with those provided to others accused of lying on the government form. The judge rejected that deal, sending the case to a jury trial. He would be convicted on all charges and was waiting for sentencing. Even after the felony conviction, his father would maintain that there was no chance that he would pardon his son.

Hunter Biden was also facing charges of tax evasion. He allegedly hid large sums of money from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). Hunter has always blamed his tax issues on his addictions. There have also been accusations of Hunter selling access to his father when Joe Biden was Vice President. Critics claim that the President’s son made millions from the scheme, leading some on the Republican side of the aisle to refer to the family as the “Biden Crime Family.”

Late Sunday night, President Joe Biden would break his promise not to use his presidential power to pardon his son. He claimed that the Democrat-run Department of Justice (DOJ) targeted his son for political reasons. He claimed his son did nothing wrong when lying on the 4473 because there wasn’t a victim. President Biden said almost no one is charged with lying on a 4473. Quick research shows that several hundred people each year are charged with lying on the ATF gun purchase form.

The President wrote: “Today, I signed a pardon for my son Hunter. From the day I took office, I said I would not interfere with the Justice Department’s decision-making, and I kept my word even as I have watched my son being selectively, and unfairly, prosecuted. Without aggravating factors like use in a crime, multiple purchases, or buying a weapon as a straw purchaser, people are almost never brought to trial on felony charges solely for how they filled out a gun form. Those who were late paying their taxes because of serious addictions, but paid them back subsequently with interest and penalties, are typically given non-criminal resolutions. It is clear that Hunter was treated differently.”

The DOJ issued a press release in January of last year stating that it is “aggressively pursuing those who lie in connection with firearms transactions.” The ATF and the DOJ are taking a hard line on those who lie when purchasing a firearm. The press release included examples of Americans charged and convicted of the same crime as Hunter Biden. Many wonder if President Biden will pardon these Americans as well.

United States Attorney Robert J. “Bob” Troester wrote: “Federal law prohibits knowingly making any false statement in connection with purchasing, or attempting to purchase, a firearm. The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) requires prospective firearm buyers to complete ATF Form 4473. This Form requires buyers to answer several questions, including those about the buyer’s competency, criminal history, drug use, immigration status, and history with domestic violence. Applicants who knowingly make false statements may also face criminal prosecution for a felony and up to 10 years in federal prison.”

The ATF even had an operation that included going after people lying on a 4473. “Project Safe Neighborhoods” was a nationwide effort to catch and prosecute those lying on a 4473. The ATF and the DOJ disagree with the President’s accusation that lying on a 4473 isn’t a big deal. According to both agencies, the crimes are serious, and the government should be pursuing the violators with all available resources.

“Keeping guns out of the hands of those who shouldn’t have them is of paramount concern,” said U.S. Attorney Robert J. Troester. “We will use the tools available to us to pursue those who use a straw purchaser or lie when trying to buy a gun. We will continue to work closely with ATF and our law enforcement partners to prevent guns from falling into the wrong hands by holding accountable those who lie to get them.”

President Biden also insists that his son’s alleged tax evasion should be forgiven because of his addiction to crack cocaine at the time the crime was committed. Many will point out that the U.S. prison system is full of people who commit crimes because of their addictions. This contradiction causes many to think that President Biden is acting hypocritical by pardoning his son, not just for going back on his promise but for his push to prosecute aggressively those citizens who commit similar crimes. Others claim this is an example of a two-tiered justice system where the rich and powerful can commit crimes with impunity, even though Biden has stated many times in the past that “no one is above the law.”

Hunter Biden issued a statement on the pardon after it was made public by the White House. He blamed politics for his convictions. Hunter said he would dedicate his life to helping people who are “sick and suffering.” He thanked his family for supporting him through his trials.

Hunter Biden’s Statement: “I have admitted and taken responsibility for my mistakes during the darkest days of my addiction — mistakes that have been exploited to publicly humiliate and shame me and my family for political sport. Despite all of this, I have maintained my sobriety for more than five years because of my deep faith and the unwavering love and support of my family and friends. In the throes of addiction, I squandered many opportunities and advantages. In recovery we can be given the opportunity to make amends where possible and rebuild our lives if we never take for granted the mercy that we have been afforded. I will never take the clemency I have been given today for granted and will devote the life I have rebuilt to helping those who are still sick and suffering.”

Hunter Biden’s legal team has filed motions with the courts in both cases to have them dismissed because of the pardon.

Why Joe Biden’s PARDON of Hunter is NOT the end

Hunter Biden Was Courted by Top China Influence Operation Boss

Chinese Communist officials behind targeting the US wanted to do business with Biden.

[Order David Horowitz’s new book, America Betrayed, HERE.]

The latest developments in Biden's criminal family story broke with a line in an email.

“Do you know the former Governor of Hong Kong- C.H. Troung (sp?),” Hunter Biden allegedly wrote. “He wants me to come to HK to visit to discuss business opportunities. He sat next to Dad at lunch w/ Premiere and implied we knew each other- but I don’t remember him.”

The email was dispatched to Jonathan Li, the CEO of BHR, a business partner of Hunter’s who would later provide Hunter with significant payments. But even more interesting was the man who had previously sat next to Joe Biden and who now wanted to take a meeting with Hunter.

The following year, James Bulger, the nephew of mobster Whitey Bulger, sent an email in which Li urged Hunter to reach out and make the connection for him, and Hunter authorized drafting an email.

Five years later, Jonathan Li wired $250,000 to Joe Biden’s address.

While there is no former Governor ‘Troung”, there was a former Governor Tung. And a FOX News story identifies them as the same man. But Tung was much more than a former governor. He was the founder of the China–United States Exchange Foundation (CUSEF), which tries to influence American government officials to support Chinese Communist interests.

CUSEF, known in China as Zhong-Mei Jiaoliu Jijinhui, targeted American universities, American military personnel and American elected officials. CUSEF has been described as being coordinated by the Chinese Communist Party’s United Front Work Department, which seeks to spy on and manipulate foreigners. CUSEF hires PR firms and pays lobbyists to do their work for it.

The lobbyists had to register as foreign agents under the Foreign Agents Registration Act, but the Vice President of the United States and his son were not subject to such requirements.

It was not a coincidence that Tung was seated next to Joe and Hunter at Xi’s dinner.

Such seating arrangements are not accidental at state dinners in the United States, and they are certainly not accidental in a totalitarian Communist regime that views influential foreigners as targets. The CCP would have seated Tung next to the Bidens to advance the CUSEF agenda.

In the second email, Li conveyed profuse thanks for the introduction. Did Li and Hunter’s BHR company form any kind of financial relationship with Tung’s businesses? Was any part of the $250,000 wire from Li to Hunter Biden produced as a result of a financial relationship with China’s top man for influence operations aimed at America? Could this relationship have allowed a Chinese influence operation to funnel money to Biden by potentially laundering it through BHR?

The year that Tung invited Hunter to meet with him, CUSEF had spent almost half a million on lobbyists, including at Covington & Burling which has close ties to the Biden administration. Including Biden’s future White House counsel. CUSEF also paid sizable amounts to the Podesta Group under the brother of Hillary’s campaign chair and Biden’s climate czar.

Tung was seen as the embodiment of China’s influence operations. The son of a wealthy Hong Kong businessman, his family business had allegedly been bailed out by a Chinese Communist sympathizer, and then became a key element in the CCP’s takeover of Hong Kong. The CCP insinuated itself into Hong Kong, promising to protect democracy and human rights, only to institute a brutal tyrannical rule that betrayed every promise and assurance it ever made.

CUSEF was the next wave aimed at a much bigger target: the United States of America.

The Chinese Communist operation has sponsored trips for members of Congress and former Sen. Max Baucus, a Biden ally, has been accused of ties to the group. Other alleged CUSEF pals include Biden’s current climate czar John Podesta as well as the Center for American Progress, an influential leftist group with a strong footing in the Biden administration, which took part in a CUSEF trip. As did Biden’s Ambassador Nina Hachigian, a CAP veteran and other politically active leftist figures. CUSEF has also worked with the Brookings Institute which has supplied multiple personnel to the Obama and Biden administrations.

While the email did not reveal whether Hunter Biden ever did meet with Tung, it is a worrying indicator that the Biden scion may have been seen as a weak point by elements of the CCP.

Four years after Tung sat next to Joe Biden and reached out to Hunter Biden, Foreign Policy Magazine described Tung as a “Beijing-linked Billionaire” who was “funding policy research at Washington’s most influential institutions.” It noted that “Tung currently serves as the vice chairman of one of the united front’s most important entities — the so-called Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, which is one of China’s two rubber-stamp assemblies. The body is one of Beijing’s most crucial tentacles for extending influence.”

We do not know whether Tung was ever able to influence Hunter Biden, but the email highlights the reality that Communist China was likely trying. And that the CCP would have had larger aspirations than to just reach one dysfunctional and corrupt lawyer, but would have been angling to hook the guy to the top of the Biden crime family. Known in the code as ‘The Big Guy’.

What did Joe Biden and Tung talk about when they sat next to each other? We don’t know.

The release of the latest emails is a reminder of just how much more there is still to learn about Biden’s ties to Communist China and its operatives.

It’s associations like these that led the David Horowitz Freedom Center to organize and publish a collection of some of our best work on the Biden family and China in our latest pamphlet,

Beijing Biden: The Secret Relationship With China That Threatens America."

And because there are new revelations about Biden’s corruption coming out every day, Freedom Center Investigates is staying on top of this administration and its ties to foreign influence and enemy nations. Communist China never sleeps and we don’t sleep either.

Hunter Biden’s trial details how he treated people as disposable objects during drug-fueled stupors

Gordon T. Cleveland, the sales assistant at StarQuest Shooters in Wilmington, Del., who sold Hunter a Colt Cobra .38 Special in October 2018, was as good a prosecution witness as could be on the third day of Hunter Biden’s gun trial in Wilmington federal court Wednesday. New York Post columnist Miranda Devine shares this story. Cleveland, a father of three with diabetes who drives a trash truck for the city, had a second job at the gun shop to make ends meet when the fresh prince of Delaware strolled in late one Friday ­evening. Hunter told Cleveland to keep the $13.19 change from the $900 cash he paid for his purchases. But the salesman was so honest that he thought it would be wrong to keep it. The store owner told the employee the money was his, but Cleveland sets himself high ethical standards, so he put the money in an envelope and left it by the cash register. “I don’t keep tips,” he told the Wilmington jury.
