Hunter Biden plea deal reeks: How could THIS take five years?

How does it take five years to come up with this?
As we’d long feared, the five-year Hunter Biden investigation is wrapping in a plea deal over charges the Justice Department simply couldn’t avoid bringing — because the public record established Hunter’s guilt on them long ago.
It reeks — because if this were truly all Hunter is guilty of, it wouldn’t have taken this long, or be shrouded in so much mystery.
Hunter basically admitted guilt on the tax-avoidance counts years ago, when he (or, rather, a wealthy “friend”) paid the back taxes. And he effectively confessed to the gun charge in his autobiography, writing up his vast drug use at the very time he applied for a gun license without mentioning it.
And we know the Secret Service retrieved the gun after his then-inamorata tossed it in a public trash bin.
But other obvious and apparent crimes didn’t get charged: He never registered as a foreign agent, even as his laptop and other evidence shows he was lobbying. He was blatantly peddling influence — the only possible explanation for the millions he scored in Ukraine and China is his last name.
Nor do prosecutors seem to have followed up on clear indications of money-laundering (money moved through a vast network of accounts to other members of the family) or even sex-trafficking (again, the laptop alone shows ample payment for hookers of all kinds).
