GOP Rep Jim Jordan asked the million-dollar question after Hunter Biden’s gift of a plea agreement fell apart over possible future FARA charges. It seems DOJ and Hunter’s lawyers had a side deal, or Hunter’s lawyers thought they did, to give Biden blanket immunity for taking the plea deal.
This included immunity for possible future charges against Hunter for violating the Foreign Agents Registration Act. When the judge questioned this arrangement, DOJ backtracked and Hunter’s lawyer hit the roof.
One of the side benefits of scuttling the plea deal is Biden can continue to stonewall Congress because this is ‘still an ongoing investigation.’ Enter Jim Jordan who asked: “Was Hunter Biden a foreign agent? And for what purpose?
“Did President Biden know?
“Did President Biden benefit?
“Were any policies affected?
“Why isn’t the media asking these questions?
Hunter was expected to plead guilty to two misdemeanor tax counts of willful failure to pay federal income tax as part of a plea deal to avoid jail time on a felony gun charge.
But U.S. District Judge Maryellen Noreika, a Trump appointee, expressed concerns about the terms of the agreement.
Judge Noreika “pressed federal prosecutors on the investigation and questioned whether there was the possibility for future charges.”
Was Hunter Biden a foreign agent?
And for what purpose?
Did President Biden know?

Were any policies affected?
