Originally Published 2 years ago — by The Associated Press

Prosecutors are opposing Hunter Biden's move to subpoena documents from Donald Trump and former Justice Department officials in his firearms case, arguing that he lacks sufficient evidence to support claims of potential political interference. Hunter Biden is charged with violating measures against drug users having guns, and his attorneys allege improper pressure from Trump and his officials. The case is on track for a possible trial in 2024 while his father, President Joe Biden, campaigns for reelection.
