hunters infamous laptop, which contains embarrassing emails and photos to bolster their claims. hunters attorneys have previously said the files we re manipulated and sued the computer repair shop owner who helped make the materials public. i ve made mistakes in my life and wasted opportunities and privileges i was afforded for that i m responsible as he fights to criminal cases. he has also taken a more aggressive strategy towards dealing with republican led investigations on capitol hill. got her biden to be arrested right here right now and go straight to jail thank you, mr. chairman add excuse me, hunter, apparently you re afraid of my words. his second criminal trial on tax charges is scheduled to begin in september in los angeles falerii jones s. so what do we know about the makeup of the jury? so we ve learned that the jury is comprised of six men and six women. the majority of
after witnesses and yeah, it s joe biden and donald trump are very different people. that s a big new scoop. i mean, the fact is it s a completely different approach. biden is saying, i respect the process. i expect if a hunter is convicted, he will say the same thing he s showing his love for his son but he is not attacking the process or the people involved and everything we ve seen about how biden is behaved, is that it s completely different from how trump is handling his own legal troubles. i mean, false equivalencies notwithstanding how damaging or do think it would be damaging or conviction his son s case to biden s campaign i don t. and there are a couple of reasons for that. firstly, obviously a hunter biden is not the president. he is not an office holder. he is not involved he s not a paid staffer on his father s campaign. he s not involved in any way and secondly, we know and i can tell you somebody who
based on just being a drug, drug addict, drug user buying buying a gun is almost never, never brought. hunter biden s problem is it s still a crime and this is the case that was brought and he s going to have to figure out a way to defend them. and the fact that the tortured history of there s the fact that they had a deal and then they didn t. will that be brought into the trial? not at all. that s that is completely off limits. plea negotiations are never allowed to be brought before a jury, but is indicative of the fact that this is a case that usually i mean, to the extent you can say it usually about anything involving a case that started in 2018, this investigation has been going on for six years. this this kind of crime is almost always resolved in a plea bargain kate, should people be surprised that the first lady was attending court not at all. i can tell you. so i worked for joe biden for nearly eight years and they are an incredibly close-knit family. i sat in countless
legal troubles. i mean, false equivalencies notwithstanding how damaging or do you think it would be damaging or conviction in his sons killed is to biden s campaign i don t and there are a couple of reasons for that. firstly, obviously a hunter biden is not the president. he is not an office holder. he is not involved. he s not a paid staffer on his father s campaign. he s not involved in any way and secondly, we know and i can tell you somebody who was helping run the biden campaign in 2021 of the most significant moments in the debates, one of the moments that really got the most traction was the moment when joe biden stood up to donald trump, who s trying to make a hunter biden a line of attack and said, you know, i love my son, like many people in this country who have dealt with addiction. i think families across the country can understand what we ve been through. and the president was very direct about being completely unflinching, about allowing donald trump to come out. hu
politically is that people admire that joe biden stands by his son. they relate to it. everybody has got someone and their family has either struggled with addiction or mental illness. this is an incredibly relatable thing for people all across the country. and i think seeing joe biden s humanity is a good thing for him politically to be quite crass so no, i don t think that a conviction is going to have a political impact here. what jeff, what do you think is expect the defense strategy to be because there was a document he signed which said he wasn t taking drugs and was according to it s a tough situation. and the judge yesterday ruled that an addiction specialist could not testify as an expert. i assume what abbe lowell was going to try hi to do is meticulously go through when the when the form was signed and whether at that precise moment hunter hunter biden was abusing drugs because
