Hunter Biden is accused of lying about his drug use when he bought a firearm in October 2018, when he was struggling with an addiction to crack cocaine.
Hunter Biden was indicted on Thursday on federal firearms charges, the latest and weightiest step yet in a long-running investigation into the president’s son.
The indictment comes as congressional Republicans pursue an impeachment inquiry into the Democratic president, in large part over Hunter Biden’s business dealings. Republicans have obtained testimony about how Hunter Biden used the “Biden brand” to drum up work overseas, but they have not produced hard evidence of wrongdoing by the president.
