Hunter Biden Team Rejected Plea Deal After Prosecutors Said It Didn’t Include FARA Immunity
Breitbart ^ | July 26, 2023 | Kristina Wong

Hunter Biden’s defense team on Wednesday rejected a plea agreement after a federal judge forced prosecutors to confirm that the deal did in fact not include immunity from future potential charges related to Hunter Biden acting as an agent for foreign governments.

According to the New York Times, Judge Maryellen Noreika had asked Leo Wise, a top prosecutor in the case, if the plea deal meant Hunter Biden would be immune from prosecution for other possible crimes, specifically including crimes related to the Foreign Agent Registration Act (FARA).

When Wise said no, Biden’s lead lawyer, Chris Clark, reportedly then said the agreement was “null and void.”

Former top Trump administration official Kash Patel, a former public defender and former national security prosecutor, said the judge specifically mentioning FARA indicates that the issue had come up during the discovery process of the case.

“If that issue is going to be legally precluded from being prosecuted in the future, she has the responsibility to demand that answer from the DOJ,” Patel said.

He added that it appeared that Hunter Biden’s lawyers thought that they had negotiated their way out of future charges related to violating FARA, which would be a felony with prison time.

“It looks as if they just canned the plea agreement because — having been over there on the defense side, you quietly know when you’ve lost, and they lost on the FARA point is my first reaction, which to me tells me the DOJ tried to bury the FARA conviction,” he said,

Agreed. That is a rare trait in today’s world.

The government couldn't agree to what the Biden team thought the deal was because then they would have to give all their notes to the Congress.

Hunter scumbag’s business partners are being prosecuted by the USDOL for FARA, why wouldn’t he be, since they worked with him on the same deals?

By Hunter Biden’s own recent admissions and corroborating evidence, he seems not only to have schemed to hide millions of dollars in foreign shakedown profiteering,
<><>but set up all sorts of paywalls, firewalls, and phony “loans” to hide illegal schemes.

His criminality succeeded so well b/c he had plenty of high level help. Corrupt Biden justice figures permanently freed criminal Hunter from not paying thousands of dollars in overdue taxes.

Resident Biden has serially lied that “he did not know” anything of his son’s business dealings.
<><>an assertion contrary to photographic evidence, Hunter’s business associates,
<><>plus sworn statements from at least one former business partner,
<><>clear evidence from Hunter’s own laptop,
<><>and recent disclosures from FBI documents and IRS whistleblower testimonies.

resident Biden continues to lie, the media continues to shrug it off.

It still doesn’t mean that the DOJ will actually pursue Hunter under FARA. Which they won’t do. The IRS won’t rally prosecute as well.. I think this is just to get Biden to do a “Me for Him” mea culpa and not run.

Who can believe America can survive this road to ruin?

The nation is now run by criminals and con artists.

Americans would be better off if we all simply accepted it’s now “every man for himself.”

The ruthless will survive.

The rule of law in this country has been saved by this judged. I just got a renewed faith in the legal system. One judge has done so much for this country by standing up to the Biden Crime Family. She should be admired by all Americans. That was totally awesome. A few simple questions by the judge and the total corruption at the DOJ and FBI were exposed. The house of cards came falling down. Beautiful.
