White privilege. Apparently Wesley Snipes went to the pokey for the same thing (on the taxes).

I think the Feds would happily throw me under the jail.  I am going with Biden privilege or maybe DC Crony privilege. 

But for the internet, white privilege might play better.

Agree that it's not white privilege. I think they were dinging woke liberal hypocrisy for constantly using that term for everything. Except when it's inconvenient.

Until a bigger more connection dem comes along then they're not above throwing the smaller one under the bus to make way for the bigger one.

Of all the crimes that Hunter Biden is alleged to have been involved in, these are the least important to me.

And the Washington Post today is running an editorial on why Hunter Biden's plea deal is so justified.

I couldn't read the whole thing (pay wall) but what I could read is, of course, twinged with more than a little hint of "This is just Trump and his awful Republicans going after a good, honorable man in an attempt to smear a good, honorable, and highly effective President."

Shocked, I am... absolutely shocked.

In a January press release, the Justice Department said that “federal prosecutors [are] aggressively pursuing those who lie in connection with firearms transactions,” arguing that its tough-on-offender policies were essential to “reduc[ing] gun violence.”

Those guys at Justice are such characters. They just keep me in stitches.

You know you're a Democrat when you take a plea deal AND get invited to a State Dinner all in the same week.

Hunter was very angry that a, quote, commitment from China was not fulfilled, threatening big consequences from, quote, ‘the Big Guy himself,’ his dad, who was sitting right next to him, that he wasn't made whole quote. ‘I am sitting here with my father and would like to understand why the commitment made has not been fulfilled.’ Hunter continued quote, ‘I will make certain that between the man sitting next to me and every person that he knows and my ability to hold a grudge that you will regret not following my direction. I am sitting here waiting for the call with my father,’ pops who takes half his income, the Big Guy, Joe.

I know federal gun laws are rarely enforced (lying purchase, felon in possession).  How about the tax law Biden broke?  Is that also a joke, or did he get special treatment?

Trump won in 2016. Democrats haven't been so offended since Republicans came along and freed their slaves.

So is it mostly okay now to lie on a 4473?

I wonder what tune Mr. Kristof would be singing if this were one of Trump's kids in the same position...
