Son of a gun: The Hunter Biden cases that never were

Hunter Biden will stand trial next week on gun-related charges just as the GOP’s effort to untangle his web of foreign moneymaking fizzles out. While the political will to impeach President Joe Biden over any involvement in his family’s influence-peddling has all but disappeared, the belief that the Justice Department gave Hunter Biden favorable treatment has not. In this series, the Washington Examiner will look at where the saga stands on the eve of his first trial. Part 1 will look at the cases against him that never materialized.

Hunter Biden is preparing to defend himself against gun-related charges and, three months later, against charges of tax evasion.
