House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer has issued a statement on the Hunter Biden verdict; he was found “Guilty” on all three counts in his federal gun trial.
“Hunter Biden’s sweetheart plea deal was smoked out after scrutiny by a federal judge,” Comer shared on X. “Today’s verdict is a step toward accountability but until the Department of Justice investigates everyone involved in the Bidens’ corrupt influence peddling schemes that generated over $18 million in foreign payments to the Biden family, it will be clear department officials continue to cover for the Big Guy, Joe Biden.”

Prominent conservative voices on X issued a warning to those pleased with the verdict: don’t fall for it.
“Hunter Biden guilty. Yawn. The true crimes of the Biden Crime Family remain untouched,” Charlie Kirk said. “This is a fake trial trying to make the Justice system appear ‘balanced.’ Don’t fall for it.”
Hunter Biden guilty.
Yawn.
The true crimes of the Biden Crime Family remain untouched.
This is a fake trial trying to make the Justice system appear "balanced."
Don't fall for it.

“Hunter Biden being convicted of a firearms charge is the ultimate red herring of red herrings,” said Greg Price. “The DOJ allowed the statute of limitations expire on his most serious tax charges, buried evidence of the Bidens’ foreign bribery allegations, and attempted to give Hunter a sweetheart deal with broad immunity. David Weiss wouldn’t go after him on the serious tax charges or on FARA because all of that would lead back to the shady business dealings involving his father. Instead, they went after him for a much lesser charge, where the evidence was way too insurmountable to ignore, so they can scream ‘nobody is above the law’ when they put President Trump in jail.”

Now can we put him on trial for the actual crimes people care about like the foreign bribes in China, Ukraine, and other countries that he took on behalf of Joe Biden?
