President Joe Biden on Oct. 11 said he has “great confidence” in his son, downplaying reports that federal investigators have enough evidence to charge Hunter Biden with tax crimes and a false statement on a gun purchase.

Biden made the remark during an interview with CNN, when the president was asked to comment about an Oct. 6 article by The Washington Post, which cited anonymous sources who said that federal agents had “determined months ago” that they had put together a viable criminal case against Hunter Biden.
