Report: Hunter Biden Paid IRS $1M in 2021, Attempting to Evade Conviction or Long Sentence

Wendell Husebø 17 Mar 2022

Hunter Biden in 2021 paid an outstanding $1 million IRS tax bill to evade conviction or a long sentence, the New York Times reported Wednesday.

Hunter reportedly paid the massive tax bill by taking out a loan. The tax payment does not protect Hunter from any potential incoming charges.

As a grand jury continues the probe into Hunter’s corrupt international business dealings, Hunter’s taxes are just one potential crime among many. Working with his family, including his father, former Vice President Joe Biden, the probe into Hunter may include his business dealings with Ukrainian Energy company Burisma Holdings and a Chinese energy conglomerate.

In relation to the business dealings, the Times confirmed the authenticity of Hunter’s “laptop from hell” that was previously passed off by the establishment media and big tech as Russian disinformation. It took the Times nearly two years to admit the emails from laptop were Hunter’s. Twitter infamously canceled the New York Post’s Twitter handle for purveying “disinformation” during and after the 2020 presidential election.

Hunter Biden paid off tax liability amid ongoing grand jury investigation: report
By Lexi Lonas - 03/17/22 01:53 PM EDT

Hunter Biden paid off his tax liability after disclosing in 2020 he was under federal probe into his "tax affairs," people familiar with the issue told The New York Times, while investigators continued to look into his international business dealings.

President Biden's son has recently told associates he paid off more than $1 million in tax liability with a loan as the Justice Department was investigating the matter, according to the Times.

Paying off the tax liability does not safeguard him from charges but could lead to a lighter sentence, as courts tend to go easier on those who paid their dues, experts told the Times.


An investigation into Hunter Biden for tax crimes began in 2018, sources told the outlet, and expanded to include potential violations of foreign lobbying and money laundering rules.

Biden has not been charged with any crime so far, and the Justice Department has refrained from statements on the matter.

If he's fully paid the maximum likely tax, plus penalties and interest, he probably won't be indicted.  The tax division doesn't normally like prosecuting people who fully paid the tax the DOJ claims they evaded before trial; even if the payment was in response to the government's investigation.

Which would keep the rot and corruption out of the headlines...

Had this happened four years ago, things might be very different in America.

Even though the payment does not disqualify the criminal charges against Biden, experts allege it could make it more difficult for prosecutors to win a conviction for the tax-related allegations as juries tend to be more sympathetic towards defendants who have paid their debts.

However, the federal probe spans wider than Biden's tax liabilities. It is also investigating business deals and clients he was involved in while working as a registered lobbyist for domestic interests and during his father's vice presidency.

The probe is searching for criminal violations of tax laws, as well as foreign lobbying and money laundering rules. So far, Biden has not been charged with any crime. ...Daily Mail
