In exchange, prosecutors will reportedly ask that he receive two years probation with no jail time. Biden will also admit to the illegal purchase of a firearm in 2018, and enter a diversion program typical of drug abusers. The felony gun charge will be wiped from his record if he successfully completes the program. The White House issued a short statement in response, saying: \u201cThe President and First Lady love their son and support him as he continues to rebuild his life.\u201d Critics accused the Justice Department of violating its own internal policies.
