Hunter Biden's Plea: Not Guilty to Federal Gun Charges
Hunter Biden plans to plead not guilty to federal gun charges and is requesting a video hearing for his initial court appearance, citing the burden of travel. Republicans have criticized the handling of his case, alleging favoritism due to his status as the president's son. The government has opposed the request, and both sides will file written arguments about a video hearing. The charges against Biden involve deceiving a firearms dealer and possessing a revolver despite being a drug addict. A previous plea agreement fell apart, and the new gun charges will be presided over by U.S. District Judge Maryellen Noreika.
