Issa: Hunter Biden Conviction a Reminder of Biden Administration Culture of Corruption

June 11, 2024

Washington – Congressman Darrell Issa (CA-48) released the following statement:

"Today's conviction of Hunter Biden is not a cause for celebration, but rather a stark reminder of the culture of corruption that threatens to engulf not only the Biden presidency – but his Department of Justice as well.

“The truth is the Biden DOJ for years sought not to deliver justice but figure out a way to have Hunter Biden’ avoid it. Recall that the Biden DOJ never wanted to try this case, allowed far more serious charges to lapse, and attempted an unprecedented sweetheart plea deal that would have immunized Hunter Biden from both past crimes and future wrongdoing. Fortunately, an alert judge stopped this outrageous deal and a Delaware jury has rendered its unanimous verdict.

“The day of accountability for Biden’s corruption – and that of the leadership of his Department of Justice – is closer than ever.”
