Hunter Biden, the son of President Joe Biden, has been indicted by a federal grand jury on gun charges, the first time such criminal charges have been filed against the child of a sitting president. The indictment alleges that Hunter Biden falsely claimed he was not using drugs when he purchased a gun in 2018. He could face up to 25 years in prison. House Republicans have criticized the charges and continue to investigate the Biden family. Meanwhile, former President Trump and 18 co-defendants will not face trial next month in connection to election interference in Georgia. Finally, House Democrats dismissed the impeachment inquiry into President Biden, calling it a partisan political stunt.
