Former top Senate Judiciary Committee aide Garrett Ventry told Breitbart News that newly appointed special counsel David Weiss is compromised by the “sweetheart” plea deal he tried to give Hunter Biden.
Attorney General Merrick Garland appointed Weiss special prosecutor on Friday after years of investigating the president’s son for tax and gun violations as the U.S. Attorney for the District of Delaware.they expected the case against Hunter Biden to go to trial, indicating they wanted to try the case elsewhere, outside Delaware and away from Judge Maryellen Noreika. Last month, Hunter Biden’s and Weiss’s irregular plea deal broke down upon legal scrutiny from Judge Noreika.
“Not only did he try to give him a backdoor pardon and blanket immunity, they tried to give him zero jail time — no jail time for hundreds of thousands of tax fraud and illegal possession of a firearm. He’s proven to be someone who will protect the Biden family at all costs,” he said. “I think that’s why they pick him.”
“It defeats this whole Democrat talking point that Trump advocated for U.S. attorney [Weiss] when these Democrat senators have a veto,”“They can hold up a confirmation, saying, ‘Nope, we’re not returning blue slips on this nominee.'” “It’s this clear double standard of justice,” he said. “It’s particularly skewed, it seems, towards Trump and conservatives. If your name is Biden or Clinton, you’re fine.”
