The troubled son of President Joe Biden, Hunter, has recently been indicted on nine new charges, including three felony counts, in regards to the investigation into his taxes. This adds onto the federal misdemeanor charge he was hit with in June for failing to pay federal income taxes as well as the felony charge of illegally possessing a weapon.
Meanwhile, the House Republicans have been busy working on an impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden. Members of the house voted on Wednesday to formalize their impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden. Keep reading for more information.
Hunter Biden Indicted On 9 New Tax Charges
On Nov. 7th, Hunter faced 9 additional charges in relation to the investigation into his taxes. The 56-paged filing included accusations of failing to pay over $1M in taxes and instead spending "millions of dollars on an extravagant lifestyle." If convicted, Hunter could face up to 17 years in prison.
However, Abbe Lowell, Hunter's lawyer, thinks that the investigation into Hunter's taxes was politically motivated, saying, "if Hunter's last name was anything other than Biden, the charges ... would not have been brought." The lawyer further insisted that Hunter had "paid his taxes in full," meaning he is not guilty.
Hunter's legal issues, among other things, have been brought up by the President's political rivals, namely Donald Trump, even though they do not involve Joe in any way. In fact, the only time that Joe has acknowledged his son's legal issues was in a statement in June from a White House spokesperson: "The President and First Lady love their son and support [Hunter] as he continues to rebuild his life. We will have no further comment."
