Joe Biden went to visit Hallie Biden just before Hunter Biden’s gun trial is set to begin. Hallie is said to be the biggest witness against the son of the crime family boss.
The pretense for the visit is that it was four days before the anniversary of Beau Biden’s death, since Hallie was his wife.
Here’s more from the New York Post:
President Biden made a surprise nighttime visit to the Delaware home of Hallie Biden on Sunday — just before she’s due to serve as one of the most important witnesses at first son Hunter Biden’s federal trial for alleged gun crimes.
Biden stopped by Hallie’s home around 8 p.m. for a brief private talk eight days before the 54-year-old first son’s trial is scheduled to stand trial beginning June 3.
Hallie dated Hunter at the time of his alleged gun crimes and is one of a dozen expected witnesses.
She was married to the president’s son Beau Biden, who died in 2015 of brain cancer, before her relationship with his troubled younger brother.
Prosecutors allege Hunter lied about his drug use on gun purchase forms and then briefly illegally possessed at least one weapon — which Hallie disposed of in a public dumpster in 2018.
Although many commentators noted the awkward optics due to the looming trial, the visit came four days before the anniversary of Beau’s death.
White House spokesman Andrew Bates told The Post that the president didn’t discuss the trial with Hallie Biden during the visit.
“No,” he replied. “He visited her because of the approaching 9th anniversary of Beau’s passing.”
The first son faces the possibility of prison time in his first of two scheduled criminal trials.
Hunter is also set to stand trial in Los Angeles in September for allegedly failing to pay more than $1.4 million in federal taxes from 2016-2019.
That’s right I called it a pretense. While I don’t doubt that Beau Biden’s death was at least mentioned, I’m sure that most of what discussed was Hunter Biden and his gun trial. I don’t know if he offered her money or just put pressure on her to go easy on his son, but the meeting was completely inappropriate and should have never happened. If she caves on the witness stand we’ll know why…
