Weiss Defends Hunter Biden Investigation Report

Special Counsel David Weiss released a final report defending his investigation into Hunter Biden, emphasizing that the criminal charges against him were the result of thorough and impartial work rather than partisan politics. Weiss criticized President Biden for issuing a pardon to his son, which the president characterized as a response to selective and unfair treatment, calling the cases a 'miscarriage of justice.' Weiss argued that such comments malign the integrity of the Department of Justice, stating that previous presidents did not use family pardons to insult public servants. He maintained that his prosecutorial decisions were based solely on facts and law, disregarding political opinions. The report reflects significant tension between the White House and the Justice Department regarding the handling of Hunter Biden's cases. Weiss's investigation has been controversial, culminating in multiple felony charges against Hunter Biden for tax evasion and lying on a gun purchase form.
