FIRST ON FOX: FIRST ON FOX: Special Counsel David Weiss blasted President Biden in his highly-anticipated report on his years-long investigation into Hunter Biden, saying the commander-in-chief's characterizations of the probe into his son were "wrong" and "unfairly" maligned Justice Department officials, while admitting that the presidential pardon made it "inappropriate" for him to discuss whether any additional charges against the first son were warranted.
Fox News Digital obtained a copy of Weiss's final report after his years-long investigation into Hunter Biden.
The Justice Department transmitted the report to Congress on Monday evening.
Weiss, in his report, chided President Biden for his Dec. 1, 2024 decision to grant his son a "Full and Unconditional Pardon" covering nearly eleven years of conduct, including conduct related to both convictions the special counsel obtained.
Hunter Biden was found guilty of three felony firearm offenses stemming from Special Counsel David Weiss’ investigation. The first son was also charged with federal tax crimes regarding the failure to pay at least $1.4 million in taxes. Before his trial, Hunter Biden entered a surprise guilty plea.
The charges carried up to 17 years behind bars. His sentencing was scheduled for Dec. 16, but his father, President Biden, pardoned him on all charges in December.
