Is Hunter Biden off the hook with a sweatheart deal?

U.S. President Joe Biden’s son Hunter Biden has agreed to plead guilty to federal income tax charges in a deal with the Justice Department.

The chargers come after an investigation was launched by the U.S. Attorney in the Delaware—President Biden’s home state.

Hunter Biden’s attorney said in a statement,“Hunter Biden believes it is important to take responsibility for these mistakes that he made during a period of turmoil and addiction in his life. He looks forward to continuing his recovery and moving forward.”

The 53-year-old has long come under fire for shady international business deals, despite not having any experience or expertise in the matters.

All this took place while his father was in office as both the Vice President and President, leading many to question whether Joe Biden was involved and if so—is he now compromised?

Republicans have long accused Hunter of peddling his access to his father and have called for investigations.

Trump gives Hamas deadline to accept Gaza peace plan amid rising pressure from Arab states and ongoing conflict in the region

In Short:
– Trump gives Hamas three to four days to accept a U.S.-backed Gaza peace plan, warning of consequences.
– Hamas calls the plan biased and insists on a complete Israeli withdrawal before considering any agreement.

U.S. President Donald Trump has given Hamas three to four days to accept a U.S.-backed peace plan for Gaza, warning of severe consequences if they reject it.The plan, shared by mediators Qatar and Egypt, emerged after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu endorsed it during a visit to the White House. Hamas, which was not part of the talks, is expected to review the proposal that calls for disarmament, a previously rejected demand.

Trump stated that support for the plan came from both Israeli and Arab leaders, and he emphasised the need for Hamas to respond promptly. The proposal includes a ceasefire, hostage exchanges, an Israeli withdrawal from Gaza, and disarmament of Hamas, along with a transitional government.

A Hamas source described the plan as biased towards Israel and containing unacceptable conditions.

The group maintains that a complete Israeli withdrawal is a prerequisite for their agreement to any deal, while they are unwilling to disarm.

Pressure Mounts

Hamas faces significant pressure as foreign ministers from Saudi Arabia, Jordan, the UAE, Qatar, and Egypt have supported the initiative. Turkey’s intelligence head is also set to join discussions in Doha, marking a new level of mediation.

Despite expressing initial support, Netanyahu is cautious about the plan’s implications for Palestinian statehood and faces pressure from his coalition. Public sentiment in Gaza reflects a desire for peace, albeit with scepticism about the sincerity of both Trump and Netanyahu’s commitments.
