CNN — Hunter Biden’s latest attempts to throw out his federal gun case were rejected in back-to-back rulings Thursday, teeing up a high-stakes criminal trial next month in Delaware.
The president’s son had asked the 3rd US Circuit Court of Appeals to dismiss the charges by overturning prior decisions from the trial judge that let the case move forward. But the appellate panel instead rejected Hunter Biden’s appeals, which related to his defunct plea deal and his claims that the case was tainted by political bias.
Hours later, the trial judge, Maryellen Noreika, rejected Hunter Biden’s remaining motion to dismiss the case based on Second Amendment grounds.
The rulings pave the way for the first-ever trial against the child of a sitting US president. They’re also a victory for special counsel David Weiss, who is prosecuting Hunter Biden in two separate criminal cases and is fending off aggressive pushback from his lawyers.

Of course they all want to give Hunter a pass but I brought it over for this one:

Form 4473 Question F.
Yet probably 100s of 1,000s of people falsely answer it every year. I look forward to every one of them being prosecuted, as this clearly establishes a precedent.
People have been convicted. The precedent has already been established.
Federal Prosecutors Aggressively Pursuing Those Who Lie in Connection With Firearm Transactions
OKLAHOMA CITY — The Western District of Oklahoma is aggressively seeking to keep firearms out of the wrong hands by pursuing those who lie in connection with gun purchases. Several recent cases charged in federal court highlight these efforts.
AMY CARWILE, 46, and KEVIN CARWILE, 48, both of Purcell, Oklahoma, were sentenced on August 3, 2022, to serve three months in federal prison.
EDDIE WAYNE MORRISON, 34 of Duncan, Oklahoma, was sentenced to time-served, or essentially 16 months in federal custody, on December 29, 2022, for making a false statement during the purchase of a firearm.
HALEY LEEANNE ADKISON, 24, of Oklahoma City, pleaded guilty on August 18, 2022, to making a false statement during a firearms transaction.

1. Your ignorance does not prove your claim.
2. a. Your fantasy numbers are absurd.
2. b. Well, if "Everybody does it," if everybody jumps off a cliff will you jump off a cliff? Please?
3. I would have no problem with prosecuting people who lie on the gun purchase background check form, even if I were the one who lied. It's called "Perjury". Yet DUmmie maxsolomon objects to Hunter being prosecuted for his perjury. The only standards DU-grade Progs have are double.
4. False premise, false conclusion.

He needs to face the music, not only for the gun charges for corruption, drugs, and whatever else they can think of to smack on his privileged butt

. Garland's special counsel,

Weiss, a Trump nominee, couldn't find a link between Hunter/Joe/Burisma/China, so after 6 years of investigation Weiss went further and found a gun application crime, and Hunter not paying his taxes.
Other than...you know...receipts.

Every person who has a State Medical Cannabis card and who has purchased a firearm could be charged as well, yet none ever have.
Odd, isn't it, that every RW legal type isn't shouting from the roof tops about how unconstitutional and fascist this is
Nothing but crickets from the left wing gun haters. Odd how none of them are screaming about gun crime. How long before they snap and start leaning on the second amendment?

Prosecuting Hunter Biden for perjury on a Federal form is unconstitutional? Please provide the relevant Article and Section or the relevant Amendment number.
My "cricket" has been chirping Damn well about time! continually since I first heard of Hunter's appeals being rejected.

Yes, it is odd how the DUmmies are s0 protective of someone that has violated gun laws solely because they have a D next to their name. If it were any of us, we would be in jail serving time and they would have multiple threads about it. Nothing like their lack of consistency to keep us entertained.
