Just to pick up on Mona Charen’s and A.B. Stoddard’s point about how MAGA is going to try to spin the Hunter Biden convictions, this what Matt Whitaker told Newsmax about it:

“Matthew Whitaker, the former Acting Attorney General under President Donald Trump, told Newsmax on Wednesday Hunter Biden’s felony convictions came after the Justice Department tried to sweep his crimes under the rug.

Appearing on “Newsline,” Whitaker said Biden’s three felony convictions are step one, as he faces a tax evasion trial in September. The Justice Department has allowed other alleged crimes by Biden, the son of President Joe Biden, to expire under the statute of limitations.

Jurors found Biden, 54, guilty of lying to a federally licensed gun dealer, making a false claim on the application by saying he was not a drug user and illegally having the gun for 11 days. The jury in Wilmington, Delaware, deliberated for about three hours over two days.

Whitaker noted the Department of Justice was all set to offer Biden a sweetheart plea deal on the gun charges until the judge stepped in.

“They got their hand caught in the cookie jar,” Whitaker said. “The judge identified this and asked basic questions to smoke this out.”

In the wake of convictions for Trump and Biden, Whitaker said the justice system should work for all Americans.

“It shouldn’t be used to pick off leading political candidates on either side,” Whitaker said. “We shouldn’t have cases where we don’t know what the charges are and what the convictions are.”

Just to correct a few things that Matt Whitaker said first.

The investigation that led to the convictions of Hunter Biden yesterday, started in early 2018 when Jeff Session was still U.S. Attorney General, under President Donald Trump. But Matt Whitaker already knows this because he became Acting Attorney General in late 2018 right after President Trump fired Attorney General Sessions for doing his job.

If U.S. DOJ wanted to “sweep this investigation under the rug”, they could’ve dismissed the case shortly after Joe Biden became President of the United States.

But we know what the MAGA spin and plays are going to be here:

They were just fake convictions to make it look like the justice system works for both Democrats and MAGA members equally. But then Hunter Biden will get off with a very light sentence.

And the other move will be that they’ll simply stop talking about it, at least to the ,mainstream media. Because perhaps even MAGA can get tired of sounding and looking like idiots on national TV, (with Marjorie T. Greene being the exception to that) and it the Hunter convictions just reenforces the fact that we don’t have a separate justice system for Democrats and MAGA members.
