Hunter Biden’s plea agreement with the Justice Department “reeks of favoritism,” Donald Trump Jr. tweeted on Tuesday.
The eldest son of the former president stated, “If you are a Republican, Biden’s DOJ will throw the book at you and try to put you in prison for 100 years.” “But if you happen to have the right last name, like Hunter, they will protect you and treat you with kid gloves.”

The president’s son, Hunter Biden, has been charged with a felony firearm offense in addition to two misdemeanors for failing to pay federal income tax.
The charges were announced on the same day that a federal judge in Florida scheduled the former president Trump’s trial for possessing sensitive information.
The decision to file charges against Donald Trump, the current front-runner in the battle for the Republican presidential nomination, was not made in the White House, according to President Joe Biden.
According to paperwork submitted on Tuesday to the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, the son of President Joe Biden is accused with two counts of intentional refusal to pay federal income taxes as well as one weapons offense.
According to a letter from the Delaware U.S. Attorney’s Office, he has consented to plead guilty to the two tax crimes and join a pretrial diversion program for the guns offense.
The fourth Republican in the House, Rep. Elise Stefanik of New York, declared that the GOP will “not rest until the full illegal corruption of the Biden Crime Family is exposed.”
Hunter Biden, according to Rep. Kevin Hern (R-Oklahoma), is benefiting from the arrangement because he is the president’s son.
Hern wrote on Twitter that “Biden’s DOJ is treating Hunter with kid gloves, giving him a deal that only the President’s son could receive.”
Before Joe Biden became president, Hunter Biden was a favorite target of Republicans, and during the 2020 campaign, the GOP repeatedly emphasized the president’s son’s personal challenges and financial difficulties.
The announcement of Hunter Biden’s plea agreement comes following the arraignment of former President Donald Trump last week on federal charges related to his alleged misuse of confidential information.
