Bad news for Joe Biden: The US Department of Justice is now using a special investigator in the ongoing investigation into his son Hunter. It’s about violations of tax and firearms laws.
US Attorney General Merrick Garland has appointed a special counsel to the ongoing investigation into President Joe Biden’s son, Hunter Biden. Delaware State Attorney David Weiss, who is already leading the investigation into Hunter Biden, will be given special counsel status, Garland said at a news conference in Washington on Friday.
Weiss himself asked to continue his investigation as a special counsel, Garland said. Because of this, and given the “extraordinary circumstances” of the case, he concluded that this was in the public interest.
Hunter Biden is accused of tax and gun violations
The president’s son is charged with violations of tax and weapons laws. The opposition Republicans also accuse the 53-year-old of having used his father’s important position for business in the past, including in Ukraine and China.
