If Hunter Is Indicted
10th May 2023
What will President Biden do if his son is indicted by the federal prosecutor in Delaware?
That’s one of three questions looming over U.S. Attorney David Weiss’ fateful choice.
The second is whether the indictment will go after a larger, coordinated family scheme of influence peddling or confine itself to smaller, tightly-confined issues like lying to get a gun permit and not registering as a foreign lobbyist.
The third is whether Attorney General Merrick Garland will approve Weiss’ proposed charges.
Significant political calculations follow from those decisions.
Even if he is, nothing will come of it. The Crust take care of their own.
