Hunter Biden Pardon Corruption - The $17 Million Financial Crimes Timeline EXPOSED

$1.4 million in unpaid federal taxes, convicted on three felony gun charges, pleaded guilty to nine tax felonies, sentencing scheduled for December 2024, just weeks from now. But here's the question everyone's asking.

Will President Joe Biden pardon his son, Hunter? Biden has publicly said no at least four times. He's promised he won't interfere. He stated he'll respect the judicial process. But legal experts say a pardon is almost certain. Probably on Biden's last day in office, January 20th, 2025. I'm going to

show you exactly how Hunter Biden earned $17 million from foreign entities, why he failed to pay $1.4 million in taxes, what he spent the money on instead, the evidence that convicted him and why a presidential pardon would expose the biggest double standard in American justice. This is Cash Patel. Let's expose the Hunter Biden financial crimes timeline.

The money. $17 million from where? The Montreux. Between 2013 and 2019, Hunter Biden earned approximately $17 million. But where did this money come from? Source number one, Burisma Holdings.

Three plus million dollars, Hunter's most controversial income source was Burisma Holdings, a Ukrainian natural gas company. The timeline, April 2014. Hunter Biden joins Burisma's board of directors. His qualifications, none.

He had no energy industry experience, no Ukraine expertise, no Ukraine expertise, no relevant background. His salary? $50,000 per month, $600,000 per year for a part-time board position, total from Burisma, over $3 million from 2014 to 2019. The controversy? At the exact time Hunter joined Burisma's board, his father, Vice President Joe Biden, was the Obama administration's point person on Ukraine policy. Burisma was under investigation by Ukrainian prosecutors for corruption.

In 2016, Vice President Biden pressured Ukraine to fire Prosecutor General Victor Shokin, who was investigating Burisma. Biden threatened to withhold 1 billion dollars in US loan guarantees unless Shokin was fired. Shokin was fired. Biden later bragged about this on video at a Council on Foreign Relations event saying, I looked at them and said, I'm leaving in six hours. If the prosecutor is not fired, you're not getting the money. Well, son of a bitch, he got fired. The question was Hunter's board position on Burisma paying him millions designed to influence his father's Ukraine policy?

No charges were ever filed related to this arrangement, but it raised obvious conflict of interest concerns. Source number two, Chinese investment firm, four plus million dollars. Hunter Biden's second major income source was BHR Partners, a Chinese private equity firm. The timeline, December 2013, Vice President Biden travels to China on official state business. Hunter accompanies him on Air Force Two. Days later, Hunter helps arrange a meeting between his business partner and Chinese officials.

2013, BHR Partners is formed, a joint venture between Chinese state-owned entities and Hunter's firm, Rosemont Seneca. His role, Hunter becomes a board member and later acquires a 10% equity stake. The money, BHR Partners managed over $1.5 billion in assets. Hunter received board fees and eventually profit distributions totaling over four million dollars. The controversy. Hunter was conducting business with Chinese state-controlled entities while his father was vice president and directly dealing with China on trade, security and

economic policy. This created massive conflict of interest concerns but no charges were ever filed related to the Chinese business dealings. Source number three, other consulting and legal work, $10 million beyond Burisma and Chinese entities. Hunter earned millions more from consulting fees from various companies, legal work, though he had minimal legal experience, speaking fees. other board positions, total income, 2013 to 2019, approximately $17 million. Now here's the critical part.

Hunter owed federal income taxes on this income. Amount owed, approximately $1.4 million in federal taxes for tax years 2016 to 2019. Amount paid, $0 for years while earning the money. Instead of paying taxes, Hunter spent the money on drugs, prostitutes, luxury goods, and personal expenses. Aced to the crimes what he did. Hunter Biden was convicted or pleaded guilty to two separate

categories of federal crimes. Crime category number one, gun charges, Delaware. June 2024, federal jury convicted Hunter on three felony gun charges. What happened? October 2018, Hunter walked into a gun shop in Wilmington, Delaware, and purchased a Colt Cobra Point three eight revolver. Federal law requires purchasers to fill out ATF form 4473. Question 11 E asks, are you an unlawful user of or addicted to marijuana or any depressant, stimulant, narcotic drug

or any other controlled substance? Hunter checked. No, the problem, this was a lie. At that exact time, October 2018, Hunter was heavily addicted to crack cocaine. He was smoking crack daily,

sometimes every 15 minutes according to his own memoir, The Evidence, Hunter's own memoir. In his book, Beautiful Things, Hunter described October 2018 as one of the worst periods of his crack addiction. He wrote about smoking crack constantly,

buying drugs from dealers, and being in a state of paranoia. Text messages from October 2018 showing Hunter arranging drug purchases, including on the day he bought the gun. Testimony from ex-girlfriends, Hallie Biden, his late brother's widow,

who he was dating, testified that Hunter was using crack heavily in October 2018. She found the gun in his truck along with drug paraphernalia and threw it in a trash can because she was terrified. The conviction, three felony counts, lying on a federal form,

Form 4473, possessing a firearm while being an unlawful drug user, making a false statement to obtain a firearm while being an unlawful drug user, making a false statement to obtain a firearm. Potential sentence, up to 10 years per count, 30 years maximum, though he'll receive far less. Crime category number two, tax charges, California, September 2024. Hunter pleaded guilty to nine federal tax crimes.

The charges count one through three, tax evasion, failing to pay taxes owed for 2016, 2017, 2018 count four through nine filing false tax returns 2016 through 2019, including false deductions. The scheme phase one earned massive income 2016 through 2019 2016 earned $2.4 million plus 2017, earned $2.2 million plus 2018, earned $2.0 million plus 2019, earned several million more.

Phase two, don't pay taxes. Despite earning millions, Hunter failed to pay $1.4 million in federal income taxes he owed for these years. Phase three, spend the money on illegal and personal expenses. Instead of paying the IRS, Hunter spent the money on drugs, crack cocaine purchases, methamphetamine

cash withdrawals of $10,000, $20,000, $30,000, matching drug purchase patterns, prostitutes and sex workers, over $600,000 spent on escorts and prostitutes, payments via Venmo, Zelle, wire transfers, cash often disguised as other expenses, luxury items, Porsche sports car designer clothing, Hermès, Ferragamo, Louis Vuitton, luxury hotels, Four Seasons, Chateau Marmont, high-end restaurants, phase four, file false tax returns claiming illegal deductions. When Hunter finally filed his taxes in 2020, he claimed over $250,000 in fraudulent business

deductions. He claimed payments to prostitutes and drug dealers as business expenses. He classified personal luxury purchases as business costs. He fabricated deductions to reduce his tax liability. The evidence, bank records, showing $17 million in income and $1.4 million in unpaid taxes, text messages and emails discussing drug purchases, prostitute payments and luxury spending, credit

card statements, showing designer purchases, hotel bills and cash withdrawals, Venmo, Shahzell records showing payments to sex workers, tax returns showing false deductions, IRS analysis calculating exactly how much he owed versus paid. His own memoir describing his crack addiction and reckless spending, the guilty plea. Rather than go to trial and risk being convicted on even more counts, Hunter pleaded guilty to all nine tax charges in September 2024.

Act 3. The sweetheart deal that collapsed before Hunter was convicted and pleaded guilty. There was an attempt to give him a deal that would have let him avoid prison entirely. July 2023. The original plea deal federal prosecutors in Delaware, led by U.S. attorney David Weiss, offered Hunter an incredibly lenient plea agreement. Tax charges, plead guilty to two misdemeanor tax violations, not the nine felonies, sentence, probation only, no prison time, gun charges, resolve through a pretrial diversion program, meaning the charges would be dismissed

entirely if Hunter stayed out of trouble for two years. This was extraordinary leniency for someone who earned $17 million and didn't pay $1.4 million in taxes, someone who lied on a federal gun form while smoking crack daily, someone who spent hundreds of thousands on drugs and prostitutes, why this deal was unusual. The average American who owes $1.4 million in taxes goes to prison. The average American who lies on ATF Form 4473 is prosecuted and faces prison.

But Hunter Biden, the president's son, was being offered probation and no conviction on the gun charges. July 26, 2023. The deal falls apart. Hunter appeared in federal court in Wilmington, Delaware to finalize the plea deal. Judge Mariellen Naraika started asking questions. Judge, does this plea agreement give Hunter Biden immunity from other potential charges? Prosecutors, no, it does not. Hunter's lawyers, yes, we believe it provides broad

immunity. They had different understandings of what the deal meant. Judge Naraika refused to accept the plea deal, saying the terms were unclear and potentially too broad. The deal collapsed. The political pressure behind the scenes, there was massive political pressure and public outrage.

IRS whistleblowers testified to Congress that the investigation was slow-walked and limited. Prosecutors were blocked from pursuing certain leads. They weren't allowed to ask about the big guy. A reference in Hunter's emails that may refer to Joe Biden, the investigation was deliberately restricted to protect Hunter Republicans in Congress were furious.

They saw this as a two-tier justice system, one for powerful people like Hunter Biden and one for everyone else. The public backlash was intense. The sweetheart deal couldn't survive scrutiny. August 2023, Special Counsel. Appointed after the deal fell apart, Attorney General Merrick Garland appointed David Weiss as Special Counsel, giving him independence and broader authority. Weiss then pursued both cases aggressively,

took the gun case to trial. Hunter was convicted by jury, indicted on nine tax felonies. Hunter pleaded guilty to avoid even harsher outcome for the sentencing and pardon question. December, 2024, sentencing scheduled.

Hunter faces sentencing in December, 2024 for both the gun case and tax case. Gun case sentencing scheduled for early December, possible probation, unlikely after trial conviction, likely 12 to 18 months, maximum 30 years, won't happen. Tax case sentencing scheduled for mid-December. Federal guidelines recommend 24 to 36 months for

$1.4 million tax fraud factors, increasing sentence, large amount, years of nonpayment, false deductions, spending on drugs, prostitutes, factors decreasing sentence, guilty plea, eventually paid back taxes after being caught, first-time offender, addiction issues, expert prediction, two to three years total for both cases combined. But here's the explosive question, will he actually serve it?

The presidential pardon power, the president has absolute power to pardon federal crimes. This power is unlimited, no restrictions, unreviewable, courts can't stop it, final, can't be undone. A presidential pardon would eliminate all convictions, erase all prison time, restore Hunter's rights, and all federal criminal liability.

What Biden has said, President Biden has been asked repeatedly whether he'll pardon Hunter, June 2024, before gun verdict. I will not pardon my son. June 2024, after conviction. I will abide by the jury decision. I will not pardon him.

September 2024, after tax guilty plea, I will not pardon Hunter. November 2024, after losing to Trump, I am not going to pardon my son. Clear, unequivocal, repeated, no pardon. Why nobody believes him. Legal experts, political analysts, and even some Democrats say a pardon is almost certain.

Here's why. Timing option one, right after sentencing in December, 10% chance, politically explosive would dominate News Biden probably waits. Timing option two, before leaving office in January, 40% chance.

Most controversial pardons happen in final weeks. Media attention but less severe than immediately after sentencing. Timing option three, last day in office January 20th, 2025, 50% chance. Most controversial pardons happen on the last day president is already leaving. No political cost, news cycle moves on quickly to new administration. The incentive structure. Think about Biden's choices. If he doesn't pardon, his son goes

to federal prison for two to three years. His family is devastated. Hunter serves in a federal facility. Away from his young daughters, Biden is criticized for putting politics over family. If he does pardon, Republicans criticize him, but they already do. Some Democrats upset, but many understand a father protecting his son, media coverage for a few weeks, then Trump takes office and everyone moves on, but his son stays free. For a father whose political career is over, who's not running for re-election, who's 82 years old, the choice seems obvious. Historical precedent. Presidents

have pardoned family and close associates before. Bill Clinton pardoned his brother Roger Clinton for drug charges. Donald Trump pardoned Charles Kushner, his son-in-law Jared's father, and later nominated him as ambassador to France. There's precedent for using presidential power to protect family. The political calculation. Biden's not running for re-election. Kamala Harris lost. Democrats are in the minority.

What does Biden have to lose politically? Within weeks of a pardon, the news cycle will shift to Trump's new administration. The pardon will be a footnote. From pure political calculation, the cost is minimal compared to watching his son in prison. What a pardon could cover.

Biden could issue a narrow pardon, just the gun and tax convictions, or a broad blanket pardon covering all federal offenses committed by Hunter Biden from January 1, 2014, through December 31, 2024. A blanket pardon would shield Hunter from any future federal prosecution for anything during that period, including potential charges related to foreign lobbying violations, FARA, Foreign Agents Registration Act violations, money laundering. Any other conduct not yet charged, five,

the double standard. Here's the bottom line that makes this so explosive. Hunter Biden committed serious federal crimes. The facts are undisputed. Earned $17 million from foreign companies while his father was vice president.

Failed to pay $1.4 million in federal taxes, spent the money on crack cocaine, methamphetamine, and over $600,000 on prostitutes, lied on a federal gun form about his drug addiction, filed false tax returns claiming prostitutes and drugs as business expenses. A jury convicted him on the gun charges. He pleaded guilty to nine tax felonies. The evidence is overwhelming.

His own memoir, confessing to crack addiction bank records, proving income and unpaid taxes, text messages, arranging drug purchases, payments to sex workers, false tax deductions. In December 2024, he faces sentencing, two to three years in federal prison. But there's a strong probability he'll never serve a day because his father will pardon him. The double standard. The average American who owes $1.4 million in taxes goes to federal prison.

The average American who lies on ATF, form 4473, faces prosecution and potential prison. The average American doesn't get sweetheart plea deals that collapse only under public pressure. But Hunter Biden isn't average. He's the president's son. And that reveals the fundamental problem with American justice.

We have two systems, one for powerful people with connections, one for everyone else. If Joe Biden pardons Hunter after repeatedly publicly explicitly promising he wouldn't, it will confirm the two-tier justice system. Laws apply differently based on power and connections. Break a explicit public promise. Biden said no at least four times on camera. Undermine public trust. If the president lies about this, what else has he lied about? Send a message. If you're rich enough, connected enough, powerful enough, you can escape consequences.

The victims. American taxpayers are owed $1.4 million that Hunter didn't pay. The rule of law is undermined when some people are above it. Public faith in equal justice is damaged. The broader implications. This isn't just about Hunter Biden.

This is about whether our justice system applies equally to everyone. Does the law mean anything if the president's son can earn millions from foreign entities while dad is VP, not pay $1.4 million in taxes, spend it on drugs and prostitutes,

lie on federal forms, get convicted and then get pardoned? We'll find out in the coming weeks. Either President Biden keeps his word and lets his son face justice like any other American would, or he does what legal experts expect, issues a pardon probably on his last day in office, and proves that power and connections put you above the law. Either way, it will answer a fundamental question about American

put you above the law. Either way, it will answer a fundamental question about American justice. Does the law apply to everyone equally or only to those without power? If you believe
