Fox News’ Andy McCarthy Blasts ‘So-Called’ Hunter Biden Special Counsel for Insulating ‘Joe Biden from Hunter’s Wrongdoing’
Fox News contributor and legal analyst Andy McCarthy blasted Special Counsel David Weiss on the heels of Weiss’s conviction of Hunter Biden in a gun case on Tuesday, arguing that Weiss was insulating President Joe Biden from his son’s wrongdoing.
After predicting that Hunter Biden’s lawyers would try to put his upcoming trial for alleged tax crimes — which is presently scheduled for September 5 — off until after the 2024 presidential election, McCarthy argued that that case is “really bad for the White House.”
“I mean, that’s the trial in which Joe Biden is implicated, because these are the taxes that Hunter evaded while he was peddling his father’s political influence,” he said.
“Could he be called to testify? The president of the United States?” asked host Harris Faulkner.
“He could be called to testify; it seems to me that that’s highly unlikely,” replied McCarthy.
“The government won’t call him. In fact, I think the special counsel. so-called here, his main job seems to have been to, you know, insulate Joe Biden from Hunter’s wrongdoing to the point that even though I think Joe Biden’s a central figure in the ginning up of the revenue that that case is about, the prosecutors have kept his name out of the indictment.”
“And obviously the defense is not going to call, President Biden as a witness,” he concluded. “But I do think that the parading of this evidence, which Joe Biden is simply an unavoidable part of in the weeks leading up to the November 5 election, can’t be good.”
The younger Biden was found guilty of making two false statements and illegally possessing a firearm on Tuesday morning. Two of the felonies carry maximum penalties of 10 years in prison, while the other carries a maximum sentence of five years.
