Were the DOJ and Hunter Biden Attempting to Perpetrate a Fraud on the Court?

I mean, another fraud on the court. We know that Hunter Biden's lawyer claimed she was working with the House and instructed the clerk of the court to remove an important piece of evidence from Hunter's file.

The fresh fraud involves the DOJ, because of course it does.

The plea deal fell apart when the judge demanded to know: What crimes, exactly, is the prosecution giving Hunter Biden immunity for in this plea deal? Just the crimes he's pleading guilty to? What about all the other crimes he committed, like acting a foreign agent without registering under FARA (the Foreign Agent Registration Act)?


Supposedly, they had never discussed this foundational point, and so the "two sides" -- I submit they are on the same side -- argued in court about what immunities Hunter was and was not being granted.

Plea deals are normally structured to have the defendant plead guilty to certain crimes in exchange for not being charged with other crimes. What other crimes were in the plea deal as being taken off the table? We don't know the answer to that, but the judge seemed completely unimpressed with what the two sides had brought her. Further, when asked by the judge if such a deal had any precedent, the prosecutor was forced to admit that there was none.

As mentioned by Glenn Thrush's reporting above, the deal was attempting to give Hunter Biden broad, near total immunity into perpetuity from future crimes. That led the judge to ask whether the investigation was still ongoing, at which point the DOJ admitted it was. That put the two sides at a technical impasse, and one the judge wasn't willing to overlook.

Zooming out, it appears that Hunter Biden's team was intent on getting it on the record that by signing the plea, all investigations into Hunter Biden (and by virtue, possible future charges related to them) would be ended. Meanwhile, the DOJ seemed happy to let that happen until the judge threw up a roadblock.

It's impossible -- impossible that there was no deal to grant Hunter Biden full "global" immunity regarding all crimes he may have committed and may in the future be discovered to have committed.

What happened was that the prosecutors assured him of full "global" immunity going forward -- but they didn't want to admit in court that they had made this incredible No Jail for Any Crimes, Ever deal.

So they lied to the judge about it.

@shipwreckedcrew

The outcome of the Biden plea hearing is a cover story.

There is NO WAY that the two sides didn't discuss before today whether this was a "Global Plea" or not.

The idea that Hunter's team only learned today that other charges are still possible is idiotic.

One of two things is true:

1) There was a "wink and nod" agreement that this would be the only charges he faced, but neither side wanted to put it in writing due to the firestorm it would cause.

2) Realizing there was no way to escape the firestorm that has come up since the plea deal surfaced, they used the "excuse" that other charges might yet be filed to step back and talk about the case further rather than go forward.

This was performance art today. They knew they couldn't go forward in the face of the IRS whistleblower testimony and all the other revelations about how Hunter and Biden family members getting millions of foreign revenue.

A lot of people in the DOJ need to be fired, and a number of them need to go to prison for long stretches.

Related: This is an important question. Why is Hunter's bong-ripping "Sugar Brother" willing to spend literally millions of dollars of his "own money" -- or is it his own money he's spending? -- to bail Hunter Biden out of his tax jams and other criminal charges?

I mean -- are they lovers? Or is Morris acting as a front for other Democrat donors, secretly, illegally piping money to Hunter Biden?

Photographs from the press would later confirm Morris' attendance at the plea hearing, and it once again begs the question: Why exactly is Morris willing to spend millions of dollars on Hunter Biden?

The relationship between the two has never made much sense. How many wealthy individuals do you know who are willing to pay off $2.8 million in unpaid taxes for a drug addict without receiving something in return? That's exactly what Morris did for Hunter Biden, structuring it as a "loan" that will obviously never be paid back in order to avoid further taxation. Morris has also been paying legal fees for the president's son and even bought him a fancy car to drive around.

Is Morris receiving some kind of preferential treatment from the Biden administration? Is he working to cover something up by ensuring Hunter Biden is protected from further legal culpability? I don't know the answer, but I know his supposed generosity doesn't begin to add up.

The DOJ should be sniffing around to find out why Morris is doing what he's doing. Of course, the DOJ is too busy letting Hunter Biden off the hook to do that so I'm spitting into the wind.

Related question: Why does so-called "private citizen" Hunter Biden have a f***ing motorcade?!!?

WHO THE F*** IS PAYING FOR THIS UNEMPLOYABLE CRACK-ADDLED BROKEASS PRINCELING TO LIVE LIKE A SAUDI SHEIK??!!

The plea deal was then restricted to the the tax and gun charges.

Which are charged as felonies, with jail time, in almost all other cases.

But, if I am all caught up now, Hunter Biden then rejected the plea deal and plead "not guilty," which is the funniest thing the Smartest Man Joe Biden Knows ever said.

22 The "plea deal" was intended to be a de-facto pardon, protecting Hunter from being prosecuted for any Federal crimes, now and in the future.

Yeah, The Big Guy is going to pardon Hunter on the last day of his term, but the Angel of Death sometimes shows up unexpectedly, so Hunter needed some interim protection, without the embarrassment of Dad having to give him a pardon early.

Now that Hunter has obviously reverted to being a degenerate cokehead, he really needs those legal protections.

Their expectation was that the judge would rubber-stamp whatever stinky, smelly, corrupt plea deal was put on her desk. And can you blame them? 99% of the time, they would be right. But this judge, at least for now, is having none of it. She's acting like a real judge and not a Biden lackey. Again: for now. This totally threw Hunter's team and the DOJ for a loop. They are dumb and corrupt and didn't expect any push-back.

Isn't a plea deal supposed to be quid pro quo? The defendant pleas to a crime to save the state the risk of losing in trial, or the cost of trial, usually for cases where evidence is not recorded by the defendant on his laptop and public knowledge to the whole freakin world.

So what exactly does the state get out of a plea in this case?

73 Hunter Biden and his attorneys are clearly conspiring to commit crimes. The attorney is an agent of the client, all knowledge of the agent in imputed to the principal.

This means Hunter is charged with knowing of his attorney attempts to alter the court's file--by the false impersonation of another party. Which is at least a misdemeanor but could be a felony.

Attorney-client privilege doesn't apply.

Which position the DOJ itself took when they raided Trump's attorneys.
And also justifies the House compelling their testimony now.

The closed casket with a bunch of bricks in it is given a burial at sea off a ship of the line just to piss off a lot of people. Hunter goes to live with Uncle Jim for a bit, and opens up a string of tiki bars under a false name.

If Garland isn't getting updates on a case dealing with the president's son, then he's incompetent.

If he is getting updates, and they didn't include these details of the plea deal, then someone misled him and needs to get fired.

117 There's really no downside to taking this to court, as the prosecution team has no intention of putting any effort in to the case.

They won't bring up any incriminating evidence, they won't reveal any secrets, and i wouldnt put it past them to intentionally do things to get the case thrown out.

Even then they know they'll have a sympathetic judge, and a review system that won't punish them no matter how blatantly they screw this up. If you can repeatedly lie to a FISA court and face no consequences, we'll then lying to protect a political ally is nothing.

Remember the Paul Castellano/John Gotti story? The point: when an underling imagines that the top guy is keeping too much of the money, whether true or not, that's bad for the top guy. Solution: the money has to be spread around.

Conclusion: Yes, Hunter is a bag man, but no, the money does not stay in just the Biden family. If they did not spread it around, some one somewhere would be a problem.

As part of his allocution in a plea deal, Hunter would be required to admit to all crimes charged or uncharged.

If he is required to do that, his whole family will go down as will all of his business associates in Ukraine, China and Washington DC.

198 Here's my two cents...

The current 'plea deal' will play out. It only has Hunter going through some 'diversion' program for the drug charges, the gun charge gets dropped (which is significant) and he'll have his bong bro pay the tax fines. The 'diversion' program will be just like his previous 'diversion' program in a rental house in Malibu, CA. IOW, a joke.

Then, the so-called ongoing investigations will be shuttered. At which point Hunter's clean and with a minder to keep his ass out of trouble, or there to take the fall if need be, he'll be back to grifting and getting stoned in time for his father's second term.

Posted by: REDACTED at July 26, 2023 02:48 PM (us2H3)

===

Biggest reason why Hunter cheats on his taxes is because he has to pay out most of the money. He can't say he paid it out, he damn sure can't say who he paid it to, and once he pays out all but his percentage commission on the transaction, he doesn't have enough left to pay the taxes on the whole amount.

Here's my two cents...

The current 'plea deal' will play out. It only has Hunter going through some 'diversion' program for the drug charges, the gun charge gets dropped (which is significant) and he'll have his bong bro pay the tax fines. The 'diversion' program will be just like his previous 'diversion' program in a rental house in Malibu, CA. IOW, a joke.

Then, the so-called ongoing investigations will be shuttered. At which point Hunter's clean and with a minder to keep his ass out of trouble, or there to take the fall if need be, he'll be back to grifting and getting stoned in time for his father's second term.
Posted by: Martini Farmer

===========

He's already paid all his back-taxes and fines. That's one reason it's "time for Republicans to move on."

And you're right on the rest. The clarified deal merely allows him to be charged for other crimes. No one's saying he HAS to be charged.

IANAL. That's how I understand it.

(I say that but the few judges I have come into contact with tend to be very reasonable people. In one hearing that my family had to attend, the judge was known for being very pissy if you were as much as one second late to his courtroom. But for this hearing, HE was late. He basically couldn’t stop apologizing for his tardiness the first 15 minutes or so of the hearing.)

He'll have to do 2 years of probation, and at the end of 2 years, they'll figure out how important it was a big deal if Hunter didn't comply with the terms of his "probation".

373 >>He's already paid all his back-taxes and fines. That's one reason it's "time for Republicans to move on."

He actually hasn't paid all his taxes. That came out when the whistleblowers testified.

But the bigger problem is the gun charge which he has already been charged with. The DOJ tried to give him diversion, no jail time, and I've yet to see a single prosecutor say this is normal. This is a charge that always gets jail time.

397 This is an important question. Why is Hunter's bong-ripping "Sugar Brother" willing to spend literally millions of dollars of his "own money" -- or is it his own money he's spending? -- to bail Hunter Biden out of his tax jams and other criminal charges?

The only thing that makes sense to me is "Sugar Brother" is the Biden's Mr. Wolf and money launderer. Hunter's cash sure seemed to disappear off the face of the earth to who knows where - offshore accounts comes to mind (and what about Joe's cash?). But I would be willing to bet "Sugar Brother" does know and because he is quite wealthy it is plausible for him to come to Hunter's rescue. For a substantial fee of course. The FBI, remarkably or not, seems to have zero interest in this whole arrangement.

398 So MOrris, the sugar daddy, gets Hunter share of Rosemount Seneca partnership and has rights to his artwork.

409 I'm guessing Hunter's Sugar Brother lawyer is deducting the cost of his private jet (just reducing his taxes and not paying his 'fair share') as a business expense under Section 162 of the Code, but that should be disallowed as Hunter isn't paying him a penny and thus it isn't a reasonable and necessary business expense. Instead, Morris is paying Hunter--millions--to get out of tax crimes. If anything this is an illegal campaign contribution and all expenses that Morris is attempting to deduct should be disallowed and Morris prosectued for tax and campaign finance violations.
