A few short months ago, Hunter was fully prepared to plead guilty. Now he's not?

the drug abuse is practically irrelevant here: the actual crime is knowingly LYING on Form 4473! ... which essentially has little to do with the Second Amendment IF the Brady Bill is Constitutional in the first place ...

“...and charging him for buying a weapon while on drugs violates the Second Amendment”

What does this “Second Amendment” have to do with anything, as all I ever hear is that it’s a RIGHT WING CONSPIRACY.

Stringing it out. A million legal motions...each one taking two months to resolve. There’ll be plenty of time for Presidential pardons after next November 5th.

Hunter’s DemonKKKRAT lawyers are, again, playing ‘hide the potato.’ They would be willing to sell their mothers to bury Hunter’s gun ownership application fraud.

Sounds like Contempt of Court and the judge should have jailed the lawyer

I don’t think the Second Amendment comes into this — at least not directly. It’s a process crime. He didn’t do his paperwork properly (i.e. he lied on a federal form).

Two outcomes:
Get rid of all the paperwork involved in firearm ownership. All that paperwork is a violation of the Second Amendment.

or

Get rid of all gun control entirely. All gun control is a violation of the Second Amendment.

Seems like the Democrat defense team wants to go in one or both of these directions. And I encourage them in their efforts.

I’m sure Weiss is submitting Amicus briefs in favor of dropping the charges.

The gun charge was there to hide the tax evasion charges. Hunter signed the form and bought the gun himself. The tax evasion pointed back to the entirety of Biden Incorporated (a wholly owned subsidiary of Ukraine and China).

From the headline...

“buying a weapon while on drugs violates the Second Amendment”

Technically, they’re correct.

Hunter is accused of lying on a 2918 purchase form for a Colt Cobra revolver
but he’s trying to weasel out of the charges, saying he was “out of it,”
a full blown druggie, abusing crack cocaine, and other substances, at the time.

What a crock.

During periods where Hunter claims to have been “out of it,” a “hopeless junkie,”
<><>he was a key player in a global influence-peddling scheme,
<><>he had a full-fledged tax-paid Secret Service detail
<><>he was jetting globally, getting free rides on Air Force Two
<><>he was selling out the US, left and right
<><>he was undermining American families’ safety and security,
<><>he was setting up a sophisticated money laundering operation
<><>he was coordinating a complex labyrinth of LLC accounts
<><>AND netting millions of dollars for himself, dad, and the Biden Crime Family.

Oh I don’t think Hunter wants the Judge in that case to get involved.

asking about Mr. Bidenโ€™s status as a user of a controlled status is constitutionally irrelevant to whether he can be denied his Second Amendment right to gun ownership,

That's an interesting gambit.

So buying a gun while on drugs is a 2nd amendment issue? How F’d up are these lawyers?

That’s one of the things that’s so screwed up about the law. He was willing to plead guilty as part of a sweet immunity deal, but when that fell apart, his lawyer claims the law is unconstitutional.
