5th Circuit August 9, 2023, Gun Case
On August 9th, 2023, the 5th Circuit declared the statute that charges a person who uses drugs with up to 25 years in prison for having a gun and just using drugs was unconstitutional. The DOJ knew that this statute was illegal. So, they deliberately indicted Hunter using this statute, KNOWING that it would be dismissed. This white thing is just a sham intended to pretend they were going after Biden’s son equally as they were going after Trump. This is such a bogus indictment that they can pretend to be balanced when they are not.
While the criminal statutes cited in the indictment are clear — it is a crime to lie on a gun application form or to possess a firearm as a drug user – clearly, these charges were delayed knowing this was in the works and knowing that it was unconstitutional. On the face of it, Hunter Biden appears at risk of being sentenced to as long as 25 years in prison and $750,000 in fines if he is convicted. This is all for show.
In this U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit overturned Patrick Daniels’s conviction, judging a lower court’s initial decision as a violation of his Second Amendment rights. They waited for this decision to charge Hunter, and it is all just really a dog & pony show.
