The workings of grand juries are supposed to be secret but it is reported that the grand jury looked at the possibility of criminal charges for alleged influence-peddling with foreign contacts in China, Russia, Ukraine, and other countries. Hunter was very successful in cashing in on his father\u2019s position in the government. We don\u2019t know if the grand jury decided on any indictments. Turley points out that there is clear evidence of some crimes. \u201cFor example, Biden seems clearly to have lied on the federal form to acquire a gun by denying his drug use; he also appears to have violated the Foreign Agents Registration Act. And there are obvious tax charges that could be brought, even though he paid outstanding taxes after the investigation began.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>Perhaps he\u2019ll be indicted over tax evasion or for lying on a federal form about that gun. Just don\u2019t count on him being <a href=\"https:\/\/thehill.com\/opinion\/judiciary\/3571578-is-the-clock-finally-running-out-on-hunter-biden\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">held accountable<\/a> for his slimy dealings with foreign countries \u2013 unless the indictments are postponed.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The article concludes:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>Turley points out that since Joe Biden isn\u2019t on a ballot in November and Hunter isn\u2019t a candidate, just using the excuse of not wanting to interfere in the November midterms \u2013 and potentially dragging down Democrat candidates- <em>is <\/em>politicizing the grand jury investigation. Turley makes the case for a special counsel in the Hunter Biden case. Joe Biden (a.k.a. The Big Guy) is directly referenced in Hunter\u2019s documents found on his laptop. The U.S. Attorney is unlikely to include any of that in a report. If Hunter pleads guilty of lesser charges to make a plea deal, he\u2019ll be protected from future congressional hearings \u2013 such as are expected when Republicans take back majority control of the House. DOJ could cut a deal with Hunter and decline further charges. On the other hand, the U.S. Attorney could present evidence to a new grand jury, since this one has now expired, but it would take months to do and the midterm elections would be over.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>It does not look as though Weiss called any witnesses who could testify about influence-peddling, including the president. Joe Biden would have to be called as a witness to answer any questions about The Big Guy\u2019s involvement. We now know that Joe <a href=\"https:\/\/hotair.com\/jazz-shaw\/2022\/04\/24\/yes-joe-biden-met-with-hunters-business-partner-as-veep-n464461\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">met with Hunter\u2019s business partners<\/a>, though he has consistently denied knowing anything about Hunter\u2019s business dealings.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>We\u2019ll see what happens and if indictments do come down. Just don\u2019t get your hopes up that Hunter will ever be held to the same standard that others are in these matters. He\u2019ll likely write a check or two if his wrist is slapped and be on his merry way.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>That is not equal justice under the law.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Sunday, Hot Air reported that Attorney Jonathan Turley announced on Twitter that he has tested positive for Covid.
