That will force the hand of Attorney General Merrick Garland, who aggressively pursued Trump figures for contempt, including former Trump \u2063adviser Steve Bannon.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That overthinking extended to the White House, where Turley said that \u201c[t]here is another possible cost to\u200c this move.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>On Wednesday, after Hunter\u2019s ersatz media briefing, \u2063 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/kjp-abruptly-ends-press-briefing-without-taking-one-question-african-reporter-wont-play-rules\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Jean-Pierre<\/a> was asked about it at her press conference. Her response? \u201cLook, as you\u2064 know, Hunter Biden is a private citizen. And so, I\u200c certainly\u200b would refer you to his representatives.<\/p>\n<p>But then:\u2063 \u201cThe \u2063president was certainly familiar with what his son was going to say. And I think what \u2062you saw was from the heart from his son. And you\u2019ve heard\u200b \u2014 you\u2019ve \u200dheard me say this; you\u2019ve \u200cheard \u200dthe President say this: When \u200cit comes \u200dto the president and the first lady, \u200cthey are proud of him continuing to rebuild his life. They are proud of their son.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>In between all the stuff you\u2019ve heard before \u2014 Hunter\u2019s \u2063a private citizen, the first couple is proud of him for transitioning away from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/federal-prosecutors-hit-hunter-biden-new-criminal-charges\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">spending millions \u200bof dollars<\/a> on prostitutes, cocaine and sports \u2063cars, \u200cetc. \u2014 there\u2019s that one problematic sentence: \u201cThe\u200c president was \u200dcertainly familiar with what his son\u2062 was going to say.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Whoops, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/turley-savages-jack-smith-lays-truth-narrowly-tailored-gag-order\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Turley<\/a> wrote, \u200cgiven that the comment \u201csuggests that the president spoke with his son before his act of contempt and discussed his statement.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf that is true, it was a\u2062 breathtaking mistake,\u201d he continued. \u201cOne of the four most obvious potential articles\u2064 of impeachment that I laid out in my prior testimony was obstruction. There already are questions over special\u200c treatment potentially being\u2064 given to Hunter\u2062 in the form of alleged \u2064felonies being allowed to expire, warnings\u200c about planned federal raids, and sweetheart \u200bdeals.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn \u2063addition, President \u2063Biden has enlisted White House staff to actively push challenged accounts of his conduct and attack the House\u200d Republicans\u2019 investigative process. Such acts could\u2063 legally bootstrap\u2063 prior misconduct into his presidency \u200dunder abuse-of-power allegations.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf this latest allegation is true, \u2062the president was speaking with his son about \u2064committing a potentially criminal actof\u200b contempt,\u201d Turley added. \u201cHunter was refusing to give testimony focused not on his own role but on his father\u2019s potential \u2064role in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/republicans-grill-fed-nominee-over-alleged-influence-peddling\/\" title=\"Republicans Grill Fed Nominee Over Alleged Influence Peddling\">alleged influence peddling<\/a>. The House \u2064can pursue evidence on that conversation and how the president \u2062may have\u2064 supported his son\u2019s effort.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Again, this is unforced stupidity of the most astounding sort.<\/p>\n<p>Hunter and his attorneys refused\u200d to take an extremely generous plea deal\u2064 if it didn\u2019t involve a \u200bnovel, atypical clause which his \u2063attorneys\u2064 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/inside-3-hour-hearing-destroyed-hunter-bidens-plea-deal-really-bad-everyone\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">contended exempted  <\/p>\n<h2> What role could Attorney General Merrick Garland play in deciding whether to pursue charges against President\u200c Biden&#8217;s\u2064 son\u200b if he is held in\u2063 contempt of Congress<\/h2>\n<p><span>  Rel=&#8221;noopener&#8221;>his past troubles\u2014there is an admission that would\u2062 catch the attention of any legal scholar.<\/p>\n<p>As Turley\u200d pointed out, Jean-Pierre essentially \u200cconfirmed that President Biden was aware of what Hunter was going \u200cto say during his media briefing. This is significant because it raises questions\u200b about potential coordination and communication between the father and son regarding their public statements.<\/p>\n<p>According to Turley, this could\u200b be\u200d an issue because if Hunter\u200b was subpoenaed to testify \u200cbefore \u2062Congress, any coordination between \u200chim\u2064 and the president \u2062could be considered witness tampering or obstruction of justice.<\/p>\n<p>This is a serious \u2062legal problem for President Biden, as witness tampering is \u200ca <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/jacob-sullum-a-new-gun-law-reflects-the-worst-instincts-of-both-parties\/\" title=\"Jacob Sullum: A New Gun Law Reflects the Worst Instincts of Both Parties\">federal crime punishable<\/a> by imprisonment. And considering the supposed \u2062evidence against Hunter in his <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/iowa-judge-temporarily-blocks-six-week-abortion-ban-days-after-gov-reynolds-signed-legislation\/\" title=\"Iowa judge halts 6-week abortion ban after governor's recent approval.\">ongoing legal\u200d battles<\/a>, any evidence of coordination between him and \u2062his father could further complicate the situation.<\/p>\n<p>Turley also \u2063highlighted the potential involvement \u200dof Attorney \u2064General Merrick Garland, who has\u200b aggressively pursued contempt charges against Trump figures, including Steve Bannon. If Hunter is indeed \u2064held in contempt of Congress, Garland will have to decide\u200c whether to pursue charges against\u200c the president&#8217;s \u200bson.<\/p>\n<p>In conclusion, Karine\u2062 Jean-Pierre&#8217;s words during the press conference may have inadvertently put President\u200b Biden in serious legal trouble. The confirmation of coordination between the\u2064 president and his son regarding\u200d Hunter&#8217;s media briefing raises questions of witness tampering and obstruction of justice. It remains to be seen how these developments \u2063will unfold and what actions will be taken by the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/donald-trump-rejects-idea-that-he-didnt-drain-the-swamp-in-first-term-2\/\" title=\"Trump denies not 'draining the swamp' in first term.\">attorney \u200dgeneral<\/a>. But \u200cone \u200cthing is clear: Biden&#8217;s verbal incontinence has once again landed him in hot water, this time potentially \u2064with severe legal\u2062 consequences.<\/p>\n<p><\/body><\/html><\/p>\n<p>Word \u200bCount: 685<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As White House press secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre&#8217;s role is to protect President Joe Biden from trouble.
