What a long, strange trip it’s been. Yeah, it’s Jerry Garcia’s observation, but I’m betting it is not unknown to Hunter Biden, for whom it applied in spades at federal court in Los Angeles on Thursday. That’s where the president’s son, after a bizarre day — as ever, brought on by himself — pled guilty to all tax charges against him: three felonies and six misdemeanors. The charges stemmed from approximately $1.4 million in taxes that he failed to pay — his “fair share,” you might say — on millions in income he raked in by peddling access to his father’s political influence.
Judge Mark Scarsi has scheduled sentencing for December 16 — though I doubt that will happen, for reasons I’ll come to.
