Hunter Biden Tinfoil issues

[a fan]

Frothers, hold your fire. These charges are going to be dismissed as unconstitutional under Clarence Thomas’s ruling. Oh, the irony.

That will help the r's with 2A and make the democrats livid. Surely, there is always a way to blame the republicans...

Don’t know how that will help them with the Second Amendment. They want no restrictions whatsoever related to guns.

I vehemently disagree with Thomas’ decision as well as Heller and all of its progeny, but anybody in Hunter’s shoes would take advantage of it.

I'm thrilled to blame the Republicans.

You guys have been whining about the DoJ et. al. treating Republicans differently-----yet didn't care when Trump pardoned his buddies who broke laws.

Question: you'd have cheered if Joe had said he'd pardon his son, just like Trump pardoned his pals, right?

You and your Republican Party have been sitting on the low ground for so long, YA, you've forgotten what the high ground looks like.

Want to wager on Joe giving Hunter a pardon? According to Republican voter ethical rules, Joe should do that immediately. Look at how much support Trump has gotten by doing that?

Once the election is concluded, or he decides not to run, he definitely will. Why wouldn’t he? Oh, because we are a nation of laws and ethical, honorable behavior?

No, to the latter. I'm simply saying: I don't think Biden will pardon him.

Dem voters don't behave like Republican voters. How many indictments is Trump up to now? And yet.......full steam ahead, full support from Republican voters.

But if Biden pardoned Hunter, he'd lose the election. Pretty sad state of affairs, if you ask me.

Does this indictment of his bouncing baby boy reflect negatively on Joe Bidens reelection campaign? The folks at the DNC have to be hoping beyond hope that Biden decides to not run so he can spend more time with his family.

Nope; expect all of this to rally the troops.

At least to most people, it "proves" that the DOJ isn't shielding Hunter for political reasons.

Of course, the big problem is that Hunter may well get off entirely because of the prior SCOTUS decision that basically moots this violation. Judge could rule that enforcement is unconstitutional. Or a jury could be persuaded that it's not worth hardly any, if any, punishment.

It's not as if Hunter hasn't publicly admitted he lied on the form about doing drugs and that he got rid of the gun 11 days later in a reckless way. It's really not a violation that would normally even get charged...and maybe is now unconstitutional to convict on.

So, this could well backfire on MAGA.

It certainly is very likely the impeachment nonsense will backfire, all the more so if they actually take a vote without ever having produced any actual evidence of high crimes and misdemeanors by Joe.

Of course, if after 5 years of investigating they finally find some big flow of money into Joe's bank account that can be traced to Hunter's "influence peddling" another matter altogether...but they've never connected the dots remotely close to what rational people would think is actually a "high crime and misdemeanor" or in any way criminal act by Joe. I think that's because there's no there there.

I do think we'll see another indictment of Hunter on the tax charges...probably within the next 3 weeks.

Hunter may do some time at some point on one or more of these things, but he may well get off scot free. Either way, it backfires on MAGA.

Personally, I'd prefer to see Joe declare victory in an historic one term and call for a competitive election among the next generation. Say that you're going to focus on the major issues facing the US and the world with all your energy and not be distracted by campaigning...

What it says to me, if Hunter walks, is the the Party is not serious about gun crime. Tread lightly, or they risk losing voters confidence and trust.

which "Party" ?
The Judge's party? The jury's party?
That's who gets to say whether he "walks" right?

Special Prosecutor Weiss' party? GOP

I keep hearing other prosecutors say that these charges wouldn't normally be brought unless the accused had priors or was dangerous. They say it sure looks like it's only because he's Biden's son. And Weiss only did so when he got so much flack from the House GOP...

If this gets ruled as unconstitutional you sure as heck can't blame the Dems for that...right?

Does Hunter have any priors? What's his personality like when he's using drugs?
The gun laws are what they are. Knowingly buying a gun when you are using/battling drug addiction is specifically mentioned for a reason, right?

No, at least to my knowledge, no priors.
More importantly no prior usage of a gun to commit a crime.
That's the sort of thing that would give rise to these charges...buying a gun after having already committed a crime with one.

Yes, he's quite likely guilty (sure appears to have admitted) that he was using drugs in the time period in which the gun was purchased, though they do actually need to prove that he was doing so at that very time period involved, as opposed to battling drug addiction and clean for a period...he's admitted the drug addiction and he's admitted the gun purchase and he was willing to plead to the overlap, but now the prosecution needs to prove the overlap...and with the recent SCOTUS ruling they need to win the Constitutional argument that seems to say that this law is unconstitutional.

But basically, let's stipulate that he's 'guilty'. The question is whether any other defendant, or most defendants, with the same lack of priors and the same lack of real concern that he's currently dangerous would be prosecuted and from everything I've read the answer is simply...no.

And so the judge OR jury may think this is overzealous prosecution. Little or no time.

So, he may well get off entirely for something I don't think most of us on here wouldn't think was wrong to do (someone on here may agree that it should be unconstitutional to restrict gun ownership to non drug users...).

Me, an owner of multiple guns, I'm interested in keeping weapons out of the hands of people who are dangers to others or themselves and I think there are all sorts of reasonable restrictions that make sense to do so...This particular SCOTUS seems to disagree.

Thus my question to youth was "which party"?

not so sure, but I wouldn't bet my house either way!

[MDlaxfan76]

He lied in the application process. He’s not a felon found in possession, they didn’t indict him for possession in my reading of the indictment. How is it unconstitutional? And his wife at the time thought he was a danger, why else would she throw out the gun?

And if I were dems I’d go after every gun owner who has purchased weed in states where it’s legal. Owning a gun is a federal right MJ still a fed crime.

I think the recent SCOTUS ruling seems to moot this argument; the requirement to disclose illegal drug usage would be an unconstitutional restriction on who can own a gun...we may disagree with SCOTUS (I do), but that appears to be the implication.

njbill is a lawyer, I'm not.

The democratic party...full stop. Every news outlet should be thrilled that here we have a simple open and shut case, where he was essentially already going to plead guilty, and if he walks, the world will know the thumb was on the scale & the Big Guy helped keep a gun on the street for his son. Remember, the democratic side of the party is full on 'eff the 2A' as often as they can....so never let a crisis go to waste, fry em!.

I remain perplexed...that sounds like a really stupid take on the situation...are you being serious or are you just making fun of MAGA-think? Numbskull-think?

Neither Biden nor Garland can do anything to stop this case (absent an actual pardon) at this point. Weiss, a Trump appointed prosecutor has full authority and has indicted...if there's a trial not a plea, the judge and jury will weigh in on facts and law, a defense will be made, arguments about facts and law...But Biden and this Admin have no way to do a darn thing. Out of their hands...they've been trying to say it's out of their hands all along, now it is 100% so, no question.

And if he was because of the SCOTUS ruling it's definitely not because of any of Justices who ad been appointed by any Dem POTUS.

You do get that, right? You're just making fun of the numbskulls?

The Dems can say, 'look, this is a dumb SCOTUS ruling', we should have serious rules, but here we are'.

They're already saying that if Hunter did a crime, he should be held accountable the same way anyone else in similar circumstances would be, no worse no better than anyone else. No whining about it.

Poor Hunter is just the victim of a political vendetta.
Too bad the Navy lost such a fine young 42 year old Ensign.
This is being filed just prior to the 5 year SOL expiring because an unprecedented plea deal blew up.
Sure, the Biden DoJ wasn't covering this up.

Frothers, hold your fire. These charges are going to be dismissed as unconstitutional under Clarence Thomas’s ruling. Oh, the irony.

He lied in the application process. He’s not a felon found in possession, they didn’t indict him for possession in my reading of the indictment. How is it unconstitutional? And his wife at the time thought he was a danger, why else would she throw out the gun?

And if I were dems I’d go after every gun owner who has purchased weed in states where it’s legal. Owning a gun is a federal right MJ still a fed crime.

Count 3 of the indictment charges him with illegally possessing a gun when he was a drug abuser. The law on which that count is based is very arguably unconstitutional.

As to the counts alleging he lied on the gun application, the argument would be that since the underlying law prohibiting drug abusers from possessing guns is unconstitutional, the corresponding question on the application form is similarly unconstitutional. There would be no valid federal purpose to ask a question about a circumstance that is not illegal. Alternatively, any lie would be immaterial to any valid criminal law. In other words, what difference does it make if you are a drug abuser if drug abusers are legally permitted to own guns?

This analogy is by no means perfect, but if you fill out an application for a driver’s license and state that your driving privileges are not suspended in another state when they are, that would be a material falsehood. If you state that your eyes are brown when they are really blue, I would think that would be an immaterial falsehood and not subject to criminal prosecution.

According to Biden’s lawyer, he believes there is an enforceable agreement with the Government relating to the gun charges. That issue will need to be resolved by the court. Not sure if that issue is triable by a jury, but it may be.

While this seems to be a clear case of selective prosecution, that defense is very difficult to prove. Biden may be able to put that issue to the jury, however. The facts are pretty compelling. According to his lawyer, he only owned the gun for 11 days and it was never loaded. Not sure if anyone in the country has ever been prosecuted under those circumstances. A Delaware jury might be sympathetic to that argument. At least there could be one or more holdouts, forcing a mistrial.

Lastly, while the conventional wisdom seems to be that Hunter was a drug abuser, I’m not sure what the government’s proof of that would be at trial. Maybe they would call his ex-wife, but that could be dicey as her allegiance is likely with Joe.

[ggait]

Reports are that the sol on the gun charges would expire in October.

So this filing could just be a placeholder for the negotiation of a new plea deal. Which still seems inevitable.

Pretty weak sauce to actually take to trial. Possibly unconstitutional, never been prosecuted in the Delaware district before. And wasn’t worth prosecuting six weeks ago.

Excuse me there shortstack but he did possess a handgun purchased illegally by lying on the application. If I tried that my ass would be in jail no questions asked. Where Hunter screwed up was he should have taken advantage of the illegal handgun pipeline. The advantage there is no paper trail and no questions asked if your wife takes the gun and throws it in a trash can. Smoking weed is only a crime in a very narrow federal scope. If you have a CDL and you pee dirty your ass is grass and your out of a job. DOT regulations require you take 2 random pee tests a year. You don't even have to be high at the time. Weed stays in your system for 30 days. How many of you think the federal government will ever modify those standards? If your a betting person then go all in on NEVER.

[cradleandshoot]

I wonder how long before more charges against Hunter are made public?? I noticed Joe and Hunter walking down the stairs from AF One. They were both sporting their Ray Bans. They looked so cute, tweedle dumb and tweedle dumber... I use to love my Ray Bans, gonna stick with Wayfarers from now on. That weekend at Bernies look is so out of style.

Who cares. It's one of the only sources with the guts to publish a photo of Hunter with a cocked pistol in his sweaty paw.
I couldn't find the one with the full pic of him standing naked, holding it in a hotel room with a hooker.
If it was the NYT you'd still claim it was Russian disinformation.

You may have noticed, now that Hunter has finally been indicted, all your credible news sources have suddenly discovered that Pop Joe is too old for another term. Get him to pardon Hunter & announce he won't run again, so they can go back to looking the other way & concentrate on Trump.

Ooohhh oooh weeeee…..Too bad you can’t get down anymore? What else did you come across when “searching” for “Hunter Biden Naked With Gun”? How long did you linger?

I was going to say, 'no, you'd get a reprimand and probation, at worst'. (assuming no priors, not a purchase made of multiple guns for resale, not used in committing a crime)';, but hey, you know yourself best...you're right, maybe they'd take a look at you and quickly go, 'man, this old cranky guy is a real danger to others' and throw you in the hoosegow to cool off...you know yourself...

Do you think your right wing media feed would be making these arguments if this was Don Jr (known heavy drug user and big gun nut)? Or would we be hearing from you 2nd Amendment? Anything to stick it to the libs, right?

[runrussellrun]

No, at least to my knowledge, no priors. read on
More importantly no prior usage of a gun to commit a crime. Many States won't allow a gun license if you had a DUI/DWI, so what IS "more importantly" Hunters REASON as to why he was kicked OUT of the US Navy. Most "officers" don't get discharged with Hunty's classification without a reason. you ignore, or perhaps don't know, that reason


Yes, he's quite likely guilty (sure appears to have admitted) that he was using drugs in the time period in which the gun was purchased, though they do actually need to prove that he was doing so at that ....see above. Oh, Hunter had other "priors" before, especially the reason as to WHY Hunter couldn't get into the military, until Joe convinced the woke Navy loser leadership and allowed Hunty to join the "man in a uniform"...as if Hunty was building a dossier of political checklists because he has aspirations

mdlaxfan.......we really don't believe much of what you write, b/c it is clear the "subject" and breath of knowledge , appears bonsai like in growth. Stunted.

In the First Amedment rights filing , a Federal court ruling in favor of plaintiffs (Dr. Stanford/Med) Most of the 1st amedment violations the defendants committed were covid related. (Defendents are White House, Joe, CDC and a slew of other agencies )

The court, which you appear to respect, specifically mentioned the suppression and 1st amendment violation that revolved around the Hunter Biden Laptop. Now why would our legal system, which you claim to respect, feel it important to include the Hunter Biden laptop suppression story in a First Amendment violation case Or rather, ruling. The court total Biden and his Govt. to knock it the F off........btw. (link on covid thread )

mdlaxfan.......we really don't believe much of what you write, b/c it is clear the "subject" and breath of knowledge , appears bonsai like in growth. Stunted. It is also very clear, that you know little, beyond the "quick giggle search"/wiki island 56 seconds worth of reading, of Hunty's background.

[MDlaxfan76]

sigh, trying to make sense of that mush, I don't see any priors in any of that rambling.

Was Hunter found guilty of a felony at some point?
More importantly, was he found guilty of using a gun in the commission of crime?
I honestly don't know, but I've seen no basis to assume so.

And that's what is meant by "priors" when talking about a gun violation.

Clearly he was a mess and had done various illegal things (as admitted in his book), but if there really were prior convictions, then I haven't heard about them.

I frequently learn I've been wrong about something and am happy to stand corrected, if so.

Do you own a gun, RRR?
