NBC News reported:
Federal prosecutors have indicted Hunter Biden, son of President Joe Biden, on gun charges, court documents show.
Biden was indicted in Delaware federal court on three counts tied to the possession of a gun while using narcotics.
Two counts are tied to Biden allegedly filing a form claiming that he was not using illegal drugs at the time he purchased a Colt Cobra revolver in October 2018. The third count alleges that he possessed a firearm while using a narcotic.
This is likely a calculated diversion strategy to redirect the focus from the numerous other crimes that the Biden Crime Family, including Hunter, is being accused of, such as money laundering, bribery and influence peddling.
