They need that element. But this judge immediately called them on it and said, \u2018well, what is it?\u2019 The <\/i><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/hunter-biden-appear-federal-court-enter-guilty-plea-out-years-long-federal-probe\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><i>Hunter Biden team<\/i><\/a><i> said publicly that they believe this was a closed-out plea agreement, which is what I would have negotiated as defense counsel. There is no way I would agree to a plea agreement where we didn&#8217;t close out the charges. Otherwise, you&#8217;ve got Damocles&#8217; sword hanging over your client&#8217;s head. And the Hunter Biden people said, &#8216;that was our understanding. There&#8217;s nothing further involving our client.&#8217; But that&#8217;s inconsistent with the DOJ, which is using the ongoing element <\/i><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/fbi-tells-agent-investigating-hunter-biden-not-answer-certain-questions-case-report\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><i>to hold off Congress<\/i><\/a><i>. And so this is really a problem of the DOJ&#8217;s making. They want to cap off this case and end it, but they also want to pretend that it&#8217;s ongoing. And you can&#8217;t have that ambiguity with a federal judge.<\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><strong>For more Culture, Media, Education, Opinion, and channel coverage, visit <\/strong><\/i><a href=\"http:\/\/foxnews.com\/media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><i><strong>foxnews.com\/media<\/strong><\/i><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/person\/hunter-biden\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Hunter Biden&#8217;s plea deal<\/a> fell apart during his first court appearance Wednesday morning, as federal prosecutors confirmed the president&#8217;s son is still under federal investigation.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The president&#8217;s son was expected to plead guilty to two misdemeanor tax counts of willful failure to pay federal income tax, as part of plea deal to avoid jail time on a felony gun charge.<\/p>\n<p>But Judge Maryellen Noreika pressed federal prosecutors on the investigation and questioned whether there was the possibility for future charges.<\/p>\n<p>The judge asked prosecutors if Hunter Biden was currently under active investigation.
