Jim Jordan Closes in on the Bidens: ‘Was Hunter a Foreign Agent and Did President Biden Benefit?
House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH) is closing in on Democrat President Joe Biden and his family as evidence stacks up to support an illegal foreign influence-peddling scheme. Jordan asked the million-dollar question after Hunter Biden’s gift of a cushy 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 the Democrat president’s son blanket immunity for taking the plea agreement.
This included immunity for possible future charges against Hunter for violating the Foreign Agents Registration Act.
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?

However, when the judge questioned this arrangement, DOJ backtracked and Hunter’s lawyer hit the roof.
One of the Bidens’ side benefits of scuttling the plea deal is the president can now continue to stonewall Congress by arguing that this is “still an ongoing investigation.”
Enter Jim Jordan, who responded by asking the right questions: “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.”
When prosecutors responded by saying there was no immunity for future charges, Hunter’s lawyers pulled the deal.
