Good. Law breakers should be prosecuted and they should repay their debt to society.
This definitely proves that trump is our one true president.Anyone who voted for Hunter Biden sure has egg on their face!

Wait!Does this mean the FD-1023 will be released since it is no longer part of an on-going investigation?
using electricity generated by a nuclear power plant? :shockhorreur!!!:Wait!
Do you think???
Is it possible…
What if it’s shown Hunter and Hillary exchanged emails on how to cook risotto!?
The "scandal" itself is actually nothing more than an example of the very common (and admittedly skeevy) business practice of hiring the family members of important people for the purpose of obtaining favors, gaining access or simply being viewed in a favorable light. Hunter Biden clearly made a mistake in joining the board of Burisma, a Ukrainian gas company, while his father was vice president. The apparent conflict of interest was obvious to literally everyone. But Republican charges that Joe Biden granted a favor to Burisma by having the Ukrainian government fire a prosecutor that was investigating the company are flat-out provably false.
It's true that Biden (along with virtually the entire Western alliance) pressured the Kyiv government to fire Viktor Shokin, the prosecutor in question. But one of the reasons was because Shokin wasn't investigating Burisma. There was no favor done on Hunter Biden's behalf. If anything, it was the opposite.
and that $5m bribe the right wingnuts are clutching pearls about?The claims of Biden helping out Burisma just don't make sense, the timeline is off and it's easily disproved by the fact that the prosecutor Biden (and everyone else) wanted fired wasn't targeting Burisma at all. Not that it mattered. The right is operating, as usual, under a set of "alternative facts."
the DOJ's investigation was closed after the US Attorney for Western Penn. spoke with giuliani... closed without a peep.Part of this false narrative now includes the charge that Biden received five million dollars in bribes from Burisma to fire Shokin based upon a confidential source that Rudy Giuliani dug up in his forays over to Ukraine to set up the smear against Biden. Again, Shokin wasn't investigating Burisma at the time, but pesky facts like that don't matter when a hysterical right-wing scandal is in motion. (It all seems to be a sloppy conflation with a five million dollar bribe that was revealed in September 2020 when they arrested three Burisma executives for offering five million dollars to Ukrainian anti-corruption officials and which the Ukrainian government went to pained lengths to say neither Hunter Biden nor Joe Biden had anything to do with.)
But see...here we are applauding a guilty man for pleading guilty...instead of lying over and over and overI thought Deplorables would be more happy about all this...
