After being given an unheard of diversion program for what should have been a felony gun charge through a sweetheart plea deal in June, Special Counsel David Weiss will reportedly hand down a new indictment against Hunter Biden by the end of the month.
“Biden is expected to be charged with two felony counts related to his purchase of a gun in 2018.

Shortly afterward Attorney General Merrick Garland appointed Weiss as Special Counsel, despite claiming he previously had the tools he needed to fully investigate the younger Biden. President Joe Biden maintains he is proud of his son and that neither of them did anything wrong.
This is a breaking story, stay tuned for updates.
