Hunter Biden’s Day in Court
On Wednesday morning, Hunter Biden was scheduled to a guilty plea in a Delaware courtroom, marking the end of a yearslong federal investigation that many Republicans believed would put the president’s son in prison, and put an end to the Biden presidency.
Michael Schmidt, who covers national security and federal investigations for The New York Times, explains why none of that has happened.
Guest: Michael S. Schmidt, a Washington correspondent for The New York Times who covers national security and federal investigations.
Background reading:
- Under an agreement with the Justice Department, Hunter Biden accepted probation for filing his taxes late.
- Republicans in Congress sought to block the plea deal, arguing that it had been tainted by political interference.
