Hunter Biden facing a possible investigation into $30k in false tax deductions ... trends now
Hunter Biden could soon face charges for making false deductions on his tax returns, it was reported on Wednesday, as it emerged that a Chinese business associate of Hunter's asked him for advice on the FBI, because a colleague was being investigated.
Hunter, 52, has been in the crosshairs of the U.S. attorney for Delaware, David Weiss, since at least 2020.
But on Wednesday The New York Times reported that charges could be imminent, in part thanks to allegations of $30,000 in tax deductions which he claimed were for business deductions.
Hunter could also face charges over his October 2018 purchase of a .38 calibre handgun, for which Hunter had to certify that he was not on drugs.
Photos from Hunter's laptop - left at a Wilmington, Delaware repair shop - show the president's son in a series of compromising positions from that time, including with what appears to be a crack pipe.

Hunter in 2020 realized the significance of his tax issues in the summer of 2019, when he tried to go on honeymoon in Mexico, but found he was unable to renew his expired passport due to the outstanding tax demands.
In November 2018 Hunter's accountant Bill Morgan had emailed him saying that the State Department would not renew his passport, due to the amount outstanding.
Morgan said Hunter owed $158,000 for 2015, and $471,000 for 2018.
'Based on the size of the 2015 deficiency, IRS has notified the State Department and they will not renew your passport until this is resolved,' Morgan wrote.
'I don't know when your passport is due for renewal but you could have a problem if it is coming up soon.'
