Hunter Biden Faces Legal Challenges: Federal Gun Trial, Tax Charges, and Allegations of Lying to Congress

Hunter Biden, the son of President Joe Biden, is facing multiple legal challenges, including a upcoming federal trial on gun charges, tax crimes in California, and allegations of making false statements to Congress. The gun trial is set to begin on Monday, with accusations of making false statements when purchasing a firearm and illegal possession of a firearm by an unlawful drug user. Biden also is facing federal tax charges related to $1.4 million in unpaid taxes from 2017 to 2020 and making false tax reports. Additionally, House Republicans claim Biden lied under oath during a congressional deposition, misrepresenting his role at his firm, Rosemont Seneca, and involvement in obtaining a visa for a foreign national. The allegations of lying to Congress have not yet resulted in formal charges.
