Weiss Report: Hunter Biden’s Tax Evasion Can’t Be Blamed on Drug Use

A new report from David Weiss sheds light on Hunter Biden’s deliberate decisions to evade paying at least $1.4 million in taxes, rejecting claims that his past drug abuse excuses his actions. Weiss detailed how the president’s son, a trained lawyer and businessman, willfully underreported income, misled accountants, and prioritized a lavish lifestyle over his tax obligations from 2016 to 2019.

The report underscores that Hunter Biden’s actions continued even after achieving sobriety in 2019, with false returns filed as late as 2020. Prosecuted for both tax and firearm offenses last year, Hunter faced potential prison time but was later pardoned by President Biden ahead of his sentencing. Weiss asserts that Hunter Biden’s choices and the seriousness of his crimes warranted prosecution, dismissing attempts to link his tax behavior to past substance abuse.
