This is not the day Hunter Biden anticipated…
According to a breaking news report from Fox News, embattled First Son Hunter Biden, who was expected to plead guilty to tax and gun crimes, saw his deal collapse at the 11th hour.
He’s now pleading ‘Not Guilty.’
From Fox News:
Hunter Biden’s plea deal fell apart during his first court appearance Wednesday morning and pleaded “not guilty” as federal prosecutors confirmed the president’s son is still under federal investigation.
The president’s son was expected to plead guilty to two misdemeanor tax counts of willful failure to pay federal income tax, as part of plea deal to avoid jail time on a felony gun charge.
But Judge Maryellen Noreika did not accept the plea agreement, questioning the constitutionality–specifically the diversion clause and the immunity Hunter Biden would receive.
The judge pressed federal prosecutors on the investigation and questioned whether there was the possibility for future charges, and asked prosecutors if Hunter Biden was currently under active investigation. Prosecutors said he was, but would not answer specifically what the president’s son is under investigation for.
Prosecutors on Wednesday said Hunter Biden pleading guilty to the two misdemeanor tax offenses would not immunize him from future charges.
The judge asked whether a potential violation of the Foreign Agents Registration Act was under consideration, but prosecutors were tight-lipped on the matter.
This story is developing…

It has been touch and go all day, but it looks like Hunter has left the building.
I really want to see this go to trial, but I'm putting my money on the UFOs.

The problem was not the penalties being too lax like right-wing pundits have been claiming. It was more of a technical problem.
"Noreika also raised a hypothetical, asking if Biden could face charges for failing to register as a foreign agent and whether the agreement blocks his prosecution for such a charge. The defense said they believed the agreement would prohibit him from being charged, and the prosecution then disagreed."
