, President Joe Biden's only surviving son, faces three charges tied to the possession of a gun while using narcotics. He has

"No," Biden said. Wise asked Naomi if she put any drug paraphernalia in the truck herself, to which she responded"no" in a hushed voice.Naomi Biden hugged her father as she walked past the defense table when the court broke for lunch, but it was a quick hug — not the regular big Biden family embraces we’ve been seeing up until now.

The messages were not entered into evidence, but were offered to refresh Naomi’s memory. Wise asked her if she remembered receiving a text from her dad shortly before midnight on Oct. 17 asking if she was awake.She didn’t respond until much later, closer to 2 a.m., and said she had fallen asleep earlier. Hunter Biden then responded, asking if her now-husband, Peter, could bring the truck to 57th and 5th Ave. to swap cars.

After Hunter Biden's 2 a.m. text asking for the truck, Naomi Biden replied “right now?” he didn’t respond after that, Wise said.Prosecutor Leo Wise began cross-examination of Naomi Biden and asked when she first became aware that her dad was struggling with addiction. Naomi Biden testified that her dad seemed “hopeful” when she saw him in New York in October 2018, the month he bought the gun. After their visit they switched cars — Hunter Biden taking his truck back and his daughter keeping Joe Biden’s Cadillac. She testified that at the time she borrowed the truck, the interior was in good condition and wasn’t messy.Lowell asked if there was any drug paraphernalia strewn about the Cadillac when she used it. “No,” she said.

Ron Palimere is on the stand. He’s been the owner of Starquest Shooters for 12 years. His responsibilities, he’s testified, including general operations, sales, ordering of products. He never makes sales, he said. “You’re trying to set a time frame — that’s not gonna happen,” Turner told Lowell, accusing the defense attorney of not understanding “how gun shop life is.”When Lowell asked him to walk through all of his actions after running the background check, Turner said he filled out the form with the rest of the information, which can only be filled out after the background check is run.
