Senator Lankford Speaks to Newsmax: Judge Poses the ‘Perfectly Precise’ Question
US District Judge Maryellen Noreika rejected Hunter Biden’s plea deal on two misdemeanor tax charges and a separate gun charge, raising concerns about whether the deal would absolve him of other charges. Senator James Lankford praised Noreika for asking the right questions and rejecting the atypical deal. The plea hearing, which was expected to be routine, turned into a three-hour event with negotiations between attorneys and the plea deal being put on hold. While the White House has claimed that nothing has changed regarding their response to questions about Hunter Biden, Lankford argues that the facts are different from the story they have been telling. He highlights the issue of Hunter’s business dealings and connections with foreign entities, suggesting that while Biden may claim he was not directly involved in the business, evidence is emerging that he had lucrative deals overseas and connected these entities with his father when he was vice president. The rejection of the plea deal and the evolving narrative surrounding Hunter Biden’s business dealings signal a shift in the situation.
