Former President Donald Trump announced on July 11 that he believes Hunter Biden should be executed due to his tax fraud and gun permit forgery.

On the 20th of June, 2023, 53-year-old Hunter Biden consented to plead guilty to two misdemeanor counts of federal income tax fraud and to a felony gun charge.

Republicans viewed this as a “sweetheart deal” and praised it, while also questioning prosecutor David Weiss.

Weiss, who was appointed by Trump as U.S. Attorney for the distinct court of Delaware, asserted on Monday, July 10 that he had already reached his conclusion on his own, despite the fact that two I.R.S. whistleblowers claimed the process was tainted.

Trump disapproved of his conclusion and the plea agreement, asserting that Hunter should have been executed.

However, neither tax fraud nor gun allegations can legally result in the death penalty.

‘Weiss is a COWARD, a smaller version of Bill Barr, who never had the courage to do what everyone knows should have been done,’ Trump stated on his social media platform, Truth Social.

“He gave out a traffic ticket instead of a death sentence.”

Despite the fact that Trump appointed Weiss himself, the former president places the responsibility on Delaware’s two Democratic senators, Chris Coons and Tom Carper, who had recommended him.

‘Because of the two Democrat Senators in Delaware, they got to choose and/or approve him,’ wrote Trump.

‘Maybe the judge presiding will have the courage and intellect to break up this cesspool of crime.

‘The collusion and corruption is beyond description. TWO TIERS OF JUSTICE!’

Weiss stood up and stated on Monday that he had been assured by the Justice Department that he would have the authority to pursue charges against the First Son outside of his Delaware district, should he so choose.

The U.S. attorney displayed his authority in black and white in a letter to Republican Senator Lindsay Graham, who had written and formally requested him to detail the IRS whistleblower’s claims that he was denied special counsel status.

“I have not requested Special Counsel designation,” Weiss stated.

“I was assured that I would be granted this authority if it proved necessary,” he continued.

“And this assurance came months before the October 7, 2022, meeting referenced throughout the whistleblowers’ allegations.”

Weiss went on to say that he has “never been denied the authority to bring charges in any jurisdiction.”

Weiss allegedly attempted to initiate charges against Hunter Biden in Washington, D.C., but was prevented by the district’s top federal prosecutor, Matthew Graves, who was appointed by Biden.

This means that Weiss would have required the assistance of the Central District of California and the District of Columbia in order to file charges in those jurisdictions.

Shapley stated that such permission was denied to Weiss.

However, Weiss insisted that he had been assured that permission would have been granted had he asked.

Shapley’s attorneys then accused Weiss of changing his account.

“U.S. Attorney David Weiss’s story continues to change,” Shapley’s legal team argued in a statement.

“As a practical matter, it makes no difference whether Weiss requested special counsel or special attorney authority. Under no circumstances should ‘the process’ have included the political appointees of the subject’s father, because Congress and the public had been assured it would not – but it did.”
