Amidst concerns of conflicts of interest, it has been noted that President Joe Biden recently had private meetings with individuals connected to his son, Hunter Biden’s upcoming gun trial. Hunter Biden is facing accusations related to a gun purchase, and the individuals President Biden met with may potentially be called as witnesses in the trial. White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre was asked about these meetings, but her responses did not seem to fully address the concerns raised.

There are worries about potential conflicts of interest, given the nature of the meetings and the upcoming trial. In addition, there are concerns about the timing of these meetings, given that they took place shortly before the anniversary of the passing of President Biden’s son. Some have raised questions about the impact of these interactions on the trial and on President Biden’s reelection campaign, with suggestions that it could cause psychological distress for him.
The trial, initially scheduled for June 20, has been postponed and is now set to take place on September 5. These developments have raised further questions about the potential implications for President Biden and his son, Hunter.
