Ethical Concerns Raised Over Hunter Biden’s Business Dealings

The name of the piece in The Atlantic is “Not Illegal, but Clearly Wrong” and the sub-head reads, “The biggest problem with Hunter Biden’s access-peddling business may have been that his father, the president, thought it was fine.”
Sarah Chayes admits right up front that “it now seems quite likely that Hunter Biden has violated one or more U.S. laws.” No way! Even the most staunch Biden supporters are willing to see Hunter go to prison if it takes some of the heat off of Joe, who knew nothing about any of this and just liked to chat about the weather.
The biggest problem with Hunter’s access peddling was that it was illegal; the biggest problem for Democrats is that Joe Biden was involved and the truth is coming out.
Chayes writes:
Attorney General Merrick Garland’s decision to convert the federal prosecutor investigating Hunter Biden into a special counsel ensures that Democrats will be fielding uncomfortable questions throughout the 2024 presidential campaign. They would do well to think before they speak. Asked one such question in a television interview in May, President Joe Biden insisted, “My son’s done nothing wrong.”
But is that true?
It now seems quite likely that Hunter Biden has violated one or more U.S. laws. And that’s not all the wrong he has done. There is a difference between what is technically illegal and what is wrong.
