Hunter Biden, age 53, is at the heart of a political storm as House Republicans conduct an impeachment inquiry against his father.
The impeachment inquiry is centered on alleged ties between Hunter Biden’s business activities and his father’s policies during the time that Hunter Biden’s father served as vice president from 2009 to 2017.
He is the first kid of a current president of the United States to be charged with a crime and face criminal prosecution. Last Monday, prosecutors charged him with three counts linked to his lying about using illicit drugs when purchasing a firearm.
These charges are related to this lying about using illegal drugs. A plea agreement concerning tax and weapons charges negotiated earlier between Hunter Biden and the prosecuting attorneys was unsuccessful.
