Hunter Biden has cut a deal in his ongoing tax evasion saga, but not in the way one might expect from the son of a sitting president. Just when it seemed like things were getting serious with jury selection looming, Hunter decided to pull a classic Biden maneuver: he opted for an Alford plea. This legal gymnastics move lets him claim he isn’t admitting guilt while also acknowledging that the evidence against him is strong enough to put him behind bars. Quite a clever trick for a guy who’s had a front-row seat to the family’s theatrical escapades.
The charges are as juicy as a summer peach, with a mix of three felonies and six misdemeanors piling up concerning a nifty $1.4 million worth of taxes that Hunter managed to dodge. Talk about an impressive scale of negligence! Special counsel David Weiss has alleged that Hunter was spinning a web of deceit over a four-year stretch to evade his tax responsibilities, specifically from 2016 to 2019. In the typical Biden fashion, Hunter reportedly set up shop to deal in scandal rather than fairness, allegedly wriggling out of the payroll and tax withholding regime designed by his own company, Owasco PC.

So he avoids all the crimes documented on his laptop coming to light and I’m sure the “Big Guy” already assured him of a pardon. pic.twitter.com/1yoMXQgcrL

The man has a knack for avoiding consequences—unless, of course, one counts those pesky felony charges for buying a firearm while allegedly under the influence. That little adventure has yet to be settled, and Hunter is still nervously awaiting sentencing. Although Joe Biden has publicly proclaimed that he won’t step in to rescue his son with a presidential pardon, history suggests keeping a close watch on the family’s shifty promises. One could almost sell tickets to the spectacle if one were so inclined!
As for the tax evasion saga itself, it’s a parade of cringe-worthy moments that calls into question not only Hunter’s personal integrity but also the integrity of those in power who turn a blind eye. If any other average Joe had tried this stunt, they would likely find themselves enjoying a lengthy stay in a very uncomfortable federal facility. However, when you’re the offspring of a sitting president, somehow the stakes seem far more forgiving.
While the legal wrangling unfolds, one thing is certain: Hunter Biden’s legal strategy reads more like a comedy script full of pratfalls and absurdities than a serious approach to justice. The taxpayers can only sit back and watch as the real drama of the First Family unfolds—complete with the suspense of whether or not Daddy will come to the rescue once again. Joining in on the fun would only require a sense of humor and perhaps a willingness to suspend disbelief as the plot thickens.
