Sen. Tim Scott, R-S.C., said the “Big Guy has some explaining to do” after it was revealed that his son Hunter Biden<\/u><\/a> had secured a tentative federal plea deal following an investigation that resulted in a felony gun charge and two tax misdemeanors.<\/p>\n

During a town hall hosted by “Hannity” in South Carolina on Tuesday, the 2024 presidential hopeful laid into what he called a “weaponized” Justice Department, vowing to “fire” President Joe Biden, Attorney General Merrick Garland and FBI Director Christopher Wray<\/a> if he is elected president.<\/p>\n

GOP RIPS HUNTER’S \u2018SWEETHEART\u2019 PLEA DEAL ON TAX AND GUN CRIMES, ZERO IN ON JOE BIDEN<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

“We know Joe Biden bragged about\u00a0leveraging a billion dollars to\u00a0keep his son in Burisma holdings<\/a>.\u00a0Nothing happened to him.\u00a0I worry if we don\u2019t have equal\u00a0justice, senator,” Fox News’ Sean Hannity said.<\/p>\n

“It\u2019s dangerous.\u00a0We all know this,\u00a0the \u2018Big Guy\u2019 has some explaining\u00a0to do,” Scott replied, referencing an FBI document alleging a criminal bribery scheme between Biden and a foreign national who seemingly referred to the then-vice president as “the Big Guy.”<\/a><\/p>\n

“With your help, we are going to\u00a0fire Joe Biden and then we are\u00a0going to fire Merrick Garland\u00a0and fire Christopher Wray,” Scott continued. “And we are going to restore\u00a0confidence, integrity in our\u00a0Department of Justice.\u00a0We can’t have them going after the pro-life activists with\u00a0a SWAT team.\u00a0You cannot call parents who show\u00a0up at a school board meeting\u00a0domestic terrorists.\u00a0And you cannot, it is\u00a0unacceptable and un-American to\u00a0weaponize the Department of\u00a0Justice against your political\u00a0opponents.\u00a0It is just wrong,” he said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Scott made the comment after it was revealed that Hunter Biden will plead guilty to two tax violations and one gun felony in what Republicans are blasting as a “sweetheart” plea deal following a five-year investigation. The first son has been under federal investigation since 2018, which began amid the discovery of suspicious activity reports (SARs) regarding funds from “China and other foreign nations.” The firearms charge stemmed from allegations that Hunter Biden lied during a gun purchase in 2018.\u00a0<\/p>\n

HUNTER BIDEN AGREES TO PLEAD GUILTY IN FEDERAL TAX, GUN CASE<\/u><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Republicans have accused Hunter of selling President Biden\u2019s influence overseas<\/u><\/a> during his vice presidency. The news of the charges against Hunter come one week after Former President Trump, the 2024 Republican presidential front-runner,\u00a0was arraigned and pleaded not guilty to 37\u00a0federal felony charges in a classified records case.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In a statement to Fox News earlier Tuesday, Scott said the plea deal lets the Biden family off with nothing more than a “slap on the wrist with kid gloves” while the “DOJ throws the kitchen sink at [Biden’s] political opponents.”<\/p>\n

Scott told Hannity that as president, he would “finish” the investigation into the Biden family’s business dealings, which has been overseen by Sen. Chuck Grassley<\/u><\/a>, R-Iowa., along with House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer.<\/p>\n

“We all have to be treated\u00a0equally under the eyes and the\u00a0laws of our country.\u00a0And when the Bidens get away\u00a0with that, we need to thank God\u00a0for Senator Grassley and\u00a0Congressman Comer for doing\u00a0their jobs,” Scott said. ” But I can tell you if they cannot\u00a0finish their investigation,\u00a0President Tim Scott will finish\u00a0it.”<\/p>\n

Scott continued to lay into what he described as a two-tiered system of justice.<\/p>\n

\u00a0“We cannot be the city on\u00a0the hill if we are not first a\u00a0nation of law and justice.\u00a0We can’t be the city on the\u00a0hill.\u00a0We cannot fulfill our destiny as\u00a0America if we do not have the\u00a0lady of justice wearing a\u00a0blindfold,” he said, prompting loud applause from the audience.<\/p>\n

Hunter will plead guilty to two counts of willful failure to pay federal income tax. The younger Biden also agreed to enter into a pretrial diversion agreement regarding a separate charge of possession of a firearm by a person who is an unlawful user of or addicted to a controlled substance.<\/p>\n

Without a plea agreement, Hunter would face a maximum penalty of 12 months in prison on each of the two tax charges, and a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison on the firearm charge, U.S. Attorney for Delaware David Weiss’ office said. The deal still has to be approved by a judge.<\/p>\n
