Rep. Dan Goldman, D-N.Y., argued Wednesday that the justice system could actually be “two-tiered” against Hunter Biden ahead of the latest hearing against the president’s son.
MSNBC host Jonathan Lemire questioned Goldman on Republican accusations that the Department of Justice “has been weaponized by this White House” in attacking former President Donald Trump while protecting Hunter Biden.
Goldman denied the claims, adding that Hunter’s recent tax charges proved the Justice Department was likely weaponized against him.
“Based on my experience, I’m shocked that Hunter Biden was even charged with these crimes. If you look at the history of civil and criminal enforcement of tax issues, and just look at Roger Stone’s case. He —he effectively did the same thing as Hunter Biden, and he simply paid a fine. So the fact that he’s even taking a plea deal in my mind demonstrates a two-tiered system of justice against Hunter Biden, not at all in favor of Donald Trump or the Republicans,” Goldman said.
