Hunter Biden could face up to 25 years in prison on federal gun charges.
U.S. President Joe Biden’s son Hunter Biden was criminally charged on Thursday with deceiving a gun dealer into selling him a firearm, in the latest sign of how the younger Biden’s legal woes may weigh on his father’s re-election bid next year.
The first-ever indictment of a sitting president’s child, filed in U.S. District Court in Delaware, charged Hunter Biden with three criminal counts related to lying about the fact he was using illegal drugs at that time, which would have banned him under the law from owning a firearm.
The news of the criminal charges come amid a formal impeachment inquiry into President Biden.
On Tuesday, House Speaker Kevin McCarthy said that House Republicans have “uncovered serious and credible allegations into President Biden’s conduct” that will serve as the basis of an impeachment inquiry.
