Mike Davis As Spencer wrote on Thursday, the looming gun charges that were part of that aborted sweetheart plea deal for Hunter returned in the form of new indictments, courtesy of Special Counsel David Weiss. Don’t be fooled. Hunter isn’t going to face any legal reckoning or jail time. It’s another legal shield supplied by Weiss, who’s been talking out of both sides of his mouth throughout this fiasco. Yes, he tried to charge Hunter, but he also allowed some of the more serious tax violations to atrophy, thanks to the statute of limitations. He was a driving force behind the original sweetheart deal that got wrecked after the testimony of IRS whistleblowers Gary Shapley and Joseph Ziegler. There’s now an odd narrative that Weiss told Shapley and Ziegler in a meeting that he was not the deciding authority on charging the president’s son. The FBI came in and provided supposed corroborating testimony from FBI Agent Thomas Sobocinski, who was also reportedly at this gathering. It prompted Shapley to provide more notes, blowing up this counternarrative that Weiss wasn’t the guy who could pull the legal trigger. But Mike Davis, a former law clerk for Justice Neil Gorsuch, had a lengthy tweet about how Weiss’ indictments provide another roadblock in holding the Biden family accountable:
And many pointed out how Weiss’ special counsel appointment was another way to hamstring congressional Republicans on House Oversight from investigating the Biden allegations. House GOP can no longer ask for Weiss’ testimony, so impeachment might be the only way to obtain and fully analyze all the evidence. Someone offered this designation in a federal investigation is usually outside the current system; Weiss is not. It looked like a political stunt, a delay tactic. Now, it looks like the Left has successfully played their institutional game perfectly to rig the game. |
