TL;DR Summary

Hunter Biden, the son of U.S. President Joe Biden, has been charged with deceiving a gun dealer into selling him a firearm, making him the first child of a sitting president to be indicted. The charges relate to his alleged lying about his drug use at the time of purchasing the firearm, which would have made him ineligible to own one. The indictment comes amidst ongoing legal troubles for Hunter Biden, including a tax investigation. The charges against him are expected to impact Joe Biden's re-election bid in 2024, as the courtroom drama unfolds alongside former President Donald Trump's upcoming criminal trials.
