Presidential prodigal son Hunter Biden's transparently sweetheart plea deal - consummated this week with his daddy's Justice Department - encapsulates, in many ways, the two-tiered system of justice that conservatives have been decrying at least since then-FBI Director James Comey let then-presidential candidate Hillary Clinton off scot-free for her infamous email server because, in his words, "No reasonable prosecutor" would have brought the case.
After a five-year Department of Justice criminal probe, which was rocked in recent months by an IRS whistleblower coming forward to sound the alarm on the feds' all-too-predictable kid-gloves treatment of Hunter, the ex-crack addict and foreign influence-peddler will escape jail time and avoid any punishment at all for having brazenly lied on a federal firearms background check form.
U.S. Attorney for the District of Delaware David Weiss - a Trump appointee, presumably retained after the 2020 presidential election to give Uncle Joe a pretense of "Apolitical" legitimacy in the Hunter probe - calls Attorney General Merrick Garland to report his findings, given the closely scrutinized nature of the investigatory subject.
Corleone certainly had nothing on Biden if the latest scuttlebutt of Biden family venality and quid pro quo corruption to the tune of millions of dollars, pertaining to Burisma founder Mykola Zlochevsky's alleged 17 recorded phone calls with Joe and Hunter, bears fruit.
The regime seems to think that by dropping the news of Hunter's sweetheart deal now, five years into the DOJ probe but a mere week after former President Donald Trump's arraignment for his own unprecedented federal indictment, the American people will cease their caviling.
No more kvetching about our two-tiered system of justice, they think, now that Hunter has confessed his guilt of federal crimes to a United States attorney.
The latest Burisma quid pro quo allegations - which, while thus far uncorroborated, are eminently plausible and match the timelines for both Shokin's firing and Hunter's well-known largesse sitting on Burisma's board - are a matter of profound national interest and concern, not least because they cut to the very heart of America's current most entrenched and expensive overseas escapade: Ukraine.
