CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY OCTOBER 10,2022
THE HUNTER BIDEN SAGA APPEARS TO BE COMING TO A HEAD. LEAKS FROM THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT SAY CHARGES AGAINST THE VICE PRESIDENT’S SON OVER TAX AND GUN OFFENSES ARE NEAR AND TO ME IT LOOKS LIKE A SWEET DEAL. BIDEN WAS OFFERED A DEAL THAT INCLUDED NO JAIL AND THE PAYMENT OF $2 MILLION IN OWED TAXES. HE TURNED IT DOWN. HE STILL PAID THE BACK TAXES, BUT THAT IS UNLIKELY TO GET HIM OFF THE HOOK.
WHAT ABOUT THOSE FOREIGN BUSINESS DEALS WHICH HIS FATHER – THEN THE VICE PRESIDENT – CLAIMED AND STILL CLAIMS TO KNOW NOTHING ABOUT? THERE IS ALSO IN THE LEAKS NOTHING ABOUT THE PRESIDENT’S BROTHER AND HIS ALLEGED INVOLVEMENT. AND NOTHING ABOUT 10 PERCENT FOR THE “BIG GUY,” WHICH LOOKS LIKE JOE BIDEN.
IT’S ALL UP TO THE TRUMP-APPOINTED PROSECUTOR IN DELAWARE. WHAT WILL HE DO? MAYBE HE WILL FOLLOW THROUGH BUT IT IS ALMOST CERTAIN BIDEN WILL PARDON HUNTER, RAISING THE SYMPATHY ISSUE FOR A TROUBLED MAN ADDICTED TO DRUGS (AND PROSTITUTES). WHAT ABOUT THAT MONEY JOE GAVE HUNTER THAT HE APPARENT SQUANDERED IN PROSTITUTES?
THIS IS WHY SO MANY HATE WASHINGTON. WE HEAR “NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW.” THAT LINE HAS BECOME A PUNCH LINE IN A BAD JOKE. I’M CAL THOMAS.
