Tucker Carlson said that Biden’s son did not register as a foreign agent

Hunter Biden, the son of U.S. President Joe Biden, was actually a foreign agent for many years, but did not register as such, while avoiding charges from the Justice Department. This is the position laid out by Tucker Carlson in a new edition of his signature show posted on Twitter.

“Most surprisingly, Hunter Biden has managed to avoid being charged under the Foreign Agents Registration Act,” Carlson noted in the context of news that the American leader’s son intends to plead guilty to two counts of tax evasion charges from the U.S. Justice Department. “For decades, virtually no one has registered as a foreign agent in Washington and no one has been prosecuted for it. But a few years ago, the Justice Department started sending people to jail for violating that law,” the host continued, stressing that it was primarily Democratic political opponents who were prosecuted on that basis.

According to Carlson, “If the system had worked properly, Hunter Biden would have been first on the list of those who would have been indicted.” “Hunter Biden was a foreign agent and did not register as such,” the host said, noting that the president’s son “sold access to his father and lawmakers to the Chinese, to the Ukrainians, to countries around the world.” “There’s nothing to argue about here, the FBI knew about it. For years they had access to Hunter Biden’s laptop, but to this day they haven’t charged him. And they never will,” Carlson said, ironically suggesting it was because he had “good genes.

Hunter Biden pleads guilty to two counts of willful failure to pay taxes as part of a deal with the U.S. attorney’s office. In addition, the parties reached a plea deal on the weapons charges. Biden’s son’s guilty plea to failure to pay taxes will settle the weapons violation case.
