    There’s no public interest in locking up Hunter Biden.

    Nonsense. Theres a massive public interest in a privileged member of the political elite being held to the same legal standards and to the same due process as you and me.

      That’s not the same legal standards. Tax charges that the IRS bends over backwards not to use and gun charges that are literally thought crime and also very rarely used.

      This was the witch hunt the GOP cries wolf about. The original thing they were looking for was Ukrainian money deals.

      For anyone else the IRS would have had a payment plan and the gun charges would have been a plea deal. But we go from politically motivated investigation to politically motivated judge rejecting the plea deal

      What about this is the same due process we would have?
