Hunter Biden’s tax evasion case in the spotlight

Hunter Biden deliberately evades paying his taxes, more than $1.4M, since 2016.
7 years the IRS didn’t “catch” this and only now he’s being indicted.
Yet, they’ll have 87K IRS agents combing thru your $600 Venmo transactions.

As per the latest report by BBC, Hunter Biden has been charged by federal prosecutors for evading tax payments worth $1.4m (£1.1m). This is the second criminal case filed against the son of the US President.
The indictment includes nine counts and reveals details of his extravagant spending on drugs and escorts during the period of 2016 to 2019.
In September, he was accused of possessing a firearm while under the influence of drugs and not disclosing his addiction on the relevant form. On Thursday night, his attorney claimed that the new accusations were politically motivated.
President Joe Biden is not mentioned in the indictment, and the White House has not commented on the matter.
The allegations come at a time when congressional Republicans are focusing on Hunter Biden’s business dealings as part of an investigation into President Biden, who is seeking re-election next year.
If Hunter Biden is found guilty of tax evasion, he could face a maximum sentence of 17 years in prison.
BBC notes that the three felonies and six misdemeanors include failure to file and pay taxes, false tax return and evasion of assessment.
“US Department of Justice Special Counsel David Weiss has been investigating the Yale-educated lawyer and recovering crack cocaine addict since 2019. In a 56-page indictment filed in California, prosecutors allege he spent his money on “drugs, escorts and girlfriends, luxury hotels and rental properties, exotic cars, clothing, and other items of a personal nature, in short, everything but his taxes”.”
No one should feel sorry for Hunter Biden.
He is a criminal who engaged in vile acts. He spent hundred of thousands of $$ on prostitutes, including trafficked women. He further used his father’s address for his fraudulent business.

They say the president’s son “individually received more than $7 million in total gross income” between 2016 and 2020, but “willfully failed to pay his 2016, 2017, 2018, and 2019 taxes on time, despite having access to funds to pay some or all of these taxes”.
