@ DSP = It is not over yet. I will almost bet that they will do with Hunter like they did with Joe. Joe is Guilty but to old to Prosecute. Hunter’s defense will be, he may have known what he was doing but he was too Drugged up to Prosecute.
What is taking FEMA so long? Are they out of Money already or is Biden holding them back to punish DeSantise?
I hope Hunter Biden has a Biden Hating AG, DA, Judge, Prosecutor and Jury.
Thank goodness Hunter Biden is finally getting the justice he deserves. I’m really starting to wonder if we should have elected this Hunter Biden guy.
