Hunter Biden’s White House stay began the day after he secured a favorable plea deal.

Hunter‌ Biden’s Extended ⁢Stay at the White ⁢House

One day after ⁣Hunter Biden lined‍ up a sweetheart plea deal with the ⁣Department⁣ of Justice, he enjoyed an extended stay alongside President Joe Biden at the White House, according to a new ⁢report.

The president welcomed his‍ scandal-plagued son to the⁢ executive mansion on June ‍21 for a ⁣two-week stay, the Washington Post reported, one day​ after the⁤ plea deal, which⁢ was later rejected​ by a federal‌ judge, became public. During his White House stay, Hunter Biden ⁤attended a state dinner, weekends at Camp⁢ David, and‍ an‌ Independence‍ Day celebration.

The stay​ also lines up⁣ with when cocaine was discovered at the White House on Sunday, July 2. It was previously ⁤reported⁢ that the first son departed the White House for Camp​ David on June 30, but it was ⁣unknown that he was staying in the⁤ residency through⁤ that time. ⁣The ‌Secret ⁤Service has since closed ⁢ the investigation and⁣ said it identified no suspects.

Had the plea deal⁢ gone through, Hunter ⁢Biden‌ would⁣ have ​pleaded guilty ⁤to misdemeanor tax crimes and received immunity on‌ a broad range of⁣ criminal charges, but ⁣federal judge Maryellen Noreika ⁤ took issue with ⁢the‌ broad ⁤immunity the first son would have won through the deal. She told ⁤prosecutors ​and Biden’s legal team last ⁢month to​ craft ​a new one. She said the original deal was “not ⁢standard” and “different from what I normally see.”

The news ​that Hunter Biden lived at the White‌ House comes after his father pledged during his ​presidential campaign ⁣in 2019 that ⁤there would be an “absolute‌ wall” between his family’s business dealings⁤ and his administration.

Hunter Biden pleaded not guilty to the tax crime charges after the deal was rejected. He is accused of⁣ failing to‍ pay taxes on millions of dollars from overseas dealings.

The Justice Department said this week that a return to the initial plea‌ deal is out of the question,⁤ contradicting the⁤ first son’s lawyers who said prosecutors ‍should be held to ⁢the deal. ‍Attorney General Merrick Garland last week appointed ⁣prosecutor David Weiss as special counsel in the investigation into Hunter ⁤Biden.
