Hunter Biden Loses Bid to Dismiss Firearms Case Over Bias Claim

The US government’s decision to charge President Joe Biden ’s son with firearm-related offenses was not tainted by outside influence from Donald Trump or his allies in Congress, a federal judge ruled.

Hunter Biden ’s motion to dismiss the charges over so-called vindictive prosecution was denied Friday by US District Judge Maryellen Noreika in Delaware. The Trump-appointed judge said Hunter Biden didn’t provide any evidence to support his claim that the decision by Special Counsel David Weiss to charge him was influenced by the former president or Republican lawmakers.
