A top House Democrat conceded on Aug. 13 that President Joe Biden’s son did a “lot of really unlawful” things, after the Department of Justice (DOJ) announced that it had named a U.S. attorney to head a special counsel investigation into the matter.
“David Weiss, the U.S. attorney for Delaware, who had been nominated by Donald Trump, can make the decisions about what to charge, where to charge, and when to charge,” Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) told ABC’s “This Week.” “And with the collapse of the plea agreement that he had apparently worked out with Hunter Biden, now he wants to be certain that he’s got the authority to go bring charges wherever he wants.”
