Given the amount of hounding he’s been through, this has the feel of what’s good for the goose is good for the gander- I mean, being tied up in court even more (and subjecting everything related to it to discovery) is a lovely way to remind overly-litigious people that if you’re gonna live by that sword, you can die by it too
Maybe I missed it, but to what end? To angle for a mistrial? I agree that Hunter has been treated very unfairly and used as a political distraction, but there has to be a purpose for the subpoenas relevant to the case.
From the filing, should have been included in the article:
Mr. Biden seeks specific information from three former DOJ officials and the former President that goes to the heart of his defense that this is, possibly, a vindictive or selective prosecution arising from an unrelenting pressure campaign beginning in the last administration, in violation of Mr. Biden’s Fifth Amendment rights under the Constitution.
I really really like to find actual documents (or courtroom videos, but don't you dare post those to !politics), as opposed to other people's take on the same. While journalistic experience can definitely provide context and insights, I think it's important to have the actual thing at hand (as evidenced by this article failing to include the pertinent above quote from the filing).
I completely sympathize. And have a similar "it ain't much, but it's honest work" approach to lay articles posted in science related magazines/ communities, of posting a link to the peer reviewed research article when it's not cited or included in the lay article. Please carry on, you are making the world a better place.
Watch his lawyers file literal photocopies of this motion in all of his current cases, crossing out Hunter Biden’s name and replacing it with his in Sharpie.
