During an hours-long hearing on Wednesday, prosecutors and defense attorneys clashed over motions to dismiss criminal tax evasion charges against Hunter Biden, the son of President Biden. The first son did not appear in federal court in Los Angeles, but his attorney argued in favor of dismissing what he claimed were politically motivated charges.
The tax charges against Hunter Biden stemmed from a years-long investigation conducted by Special Counsel David Weiss. The defense attorney argued that the government was engaging in an unusual prosecution, turning misdemeanor charges into felonies.
