Hunter Biden's federal trial for lying on a gun background check form is set to begin with opening statements on Tuesday. President Biden expressed support for his son while maintaining his distance from the case as president. Hunter Biden's struggles with drug addiction will be discussed openly in court and scrutinized publicly. Hunter Biden faces another federal trial in September for alleged tax evasion of over $1.4 million. The trials will be a distraction for President Biden's reelection campaign and the White House. If convicted, Biden could pardon his son but that would be politically damaging. Details of Hunter Biden's personal life and relationships will be publicly disclosed through evidence.
