A Democratic congressman admitted that it’s “clear” Hunter Biden broke the law<\/a> during an interview on Friday.<\/p>\n

Connecticut Congressman Jim Himes\u00a0<\/a>took a swipe at Republicans Friday night before acknowledging the first son\u2019s legal troubles.<\/p>\n

“Let me say something that you never heard a Republican member of Congress say in the four years of the Trump administration, which is that if Hunter Biden broke the law, he should be prosecuted,” Himes said on MSNBC. “And it is clear that he broke the law with respect to taxes and possibly the ownership of a handgun. He should be held accountable for that.”<\/p>\n

Himes criticized Republicans for not speaking out against former President Donald Trump when he was indicted, but also acknowledged that Hunter Biden should be held accountable if he used his father\u2019s influence to commit crimes.<\/p>\n

“If he traded on his father\u2019s influence, he should be held accountable for that. And I\u2019m emphasizing this because you never, ever heard a Republican say the same thing about Donald Trump or his family,” Himes argued.<\/p>\n

The Democratic congressman argued there was no evidence that President Biden colluded with his son on any crimes, but insinuated that any evidence should be taken seriously if it arises.<\/p>\n

“Now, to the question about impeachment, there is today zero evidence, zero evidence that Joe Biden, the president of the United States, knew about what his son was doing. If, if he did know about it, if he participated in that, then that is a very different conversation,” Himes added.<\/p>\n

Hunter, who is still under federal investigation, pleaded not guilty to two misdemeanor tax counts of willful failure to pay federal income tax on Wednesday. He was set to plead guilty as part of a deal, but the plea deal fell through.<\/p>\n

The White House has stated that President Biden is supporting his son<\/a> throughout the investigation.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Hunter Biden is a private citizen, and this was a personal matter for him. As we have said, the president, the first lady \u2014 they love their son and they support him as he continues to rebuild his life,” White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre previously said. “This case was handled independently, as all of you know, by the Justice Department under the leadership of a prosecutor appointed by the former president, President Trump.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

Fox News Digital reached out to Himes’ office for a statement, but has not heard back.<\/p>\n
