The US Department of Justice stated in court documents on the 20th that President Joe Biden's son, Hunter Biden, will plead guilty to two misdemeanors of tax evasion and reach a plea agreement with prosecutors on gun related charges. This has sparked dissatisfaction from former US President Trump. US media analysis suggests that the plea agreement will affect the 2024 US presidential election.

According to court documents, the Department of Justice stated that Hunter Biden had over $1.5 million in taxable income in 2017 and 2018, but he did not pay taxes. Hunter Biden was also accused of illegally possessing firearms from October 12 to the same month 23, 2018. At present, Hunter Biden has admitted to gun related charges through a pre-trial transfer agreement, which may save Hunter Biden from imprisonment and end the five-year criminal investigation initiated by the prosecution during the Trump administration.

We will not comment on this anymore." According to US media reports, Biden said, "I am very proud of my son."
On the same day, Trump posted on social media claiming that the US judicial system was broken, accusing the Department of Justice of corruption during the Biden administration, and sentencing Hunter Biden with a light punishment.

US media: Confession agreement will affect the 2024 US presidential election
CNN analyzed on the same day that the plea agreement will have a "direct impact" on the 2024 US presidential election. Some American political analysts believe that although Hunter Biden's plea agreement with the prosecution may have helped him solve his current legal troubles, Hunter is still embroiled in more troublesome business investigations.
At present, the 2024 US presidential election campaign is gradually unfolding, and the Republican Party will use Hunter's business investigation as an article to crack down on the Democratic Party.
