<p>The <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/white-house" target="_blank" rel="noopener">White House</a> canceled the press briefing that it had planned today following a federal grand jury convicting President Joe Biden&#8217;s son on three felony gun charges.</p>
<p>Jurors convicted Hunter Biden, 54, on all charges that he faced, including lying to a federally licensed firearms dealer, making a false claim on a federal firearms background check form, and being in possession of an illegally obtained firearm. Hunter Biden faces up to 25 years in prison for his crimes and up to $750,000 in fines.</p>
<p>The White House canceled the scheduled briefing from Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, who often struggles to answer questions, and instead announced that Biden would spend the evening with his son in Delaware.</p>
<p>“We are naturally disappointed by today’s verdict,” said Abbe Lowell, Hunter Biden’s attorney. “We respect the jury process, and as we have done throughout this case, we will continue to vigorously pursue all the legal challenges available to Hunter. Through all he has been through in his recovery, including this trial, Hunter has felt grateful for and blessed by the love and support of his family.”</p>
<p>Hunter Biden responded to the charges in a separate statement: “I am more grateful today for the love and support I experienced this last week from Melissa, my family, my friends, and my community than I am disappointed by the outcome. Recovery is possible by the grace of God, and I am blessed to experience that gift one day at a time.”</p>
<p>President Biden pledged last week that he would accept the outcome of the verdict and would not pardon his son. After the verdict was announced, CNN noted that he may commute his son’s prison sentence.</p>

<p>Special Counsel David Weiss said that the overarching themes of the case were Hunter Biden&#8217;s &#8220;illegal choices and the rule of law.”</p>
<p>“First, while there has been much testimony about the defendant’s abuse of drugs and alcohol, ultimately, this case was not just about addiction — a disease that haunts families across the United States, including Hunter Biden’s family,” he continued. “This case was about the illegal choices [the] defendant made while in the throes of addiction, his choice to lie on a government form when he bought a gun, and the choice to then possess that gun. It was these choices and the combination of guns and drugs that made his conduct dangerous.”</p>
<p>“Second, no one in this country is above the law,” he added. “Everyone must be accountable for their actions, even this defendant. However, Hunter Biden should be no more accountable than any other citizen convicted of this same conduct. The prosecution has been and will continue to be committed to this principle and to the principles of federal prosecution in carrying out its responsibilities.”</p>
