Hunter Biden's plea deal and political reactions.

Attorney General Merrick Garland has distanced himself from Hunter Biden's legal issues, stating that he would leave the matter in the hands of the US attorney overseeing the Delaware probe. Hunter Biden reached a plea deal with federal prosecutors on Tuesday over his failure to pay about $1 million in federal taxes and his purchase of a handgun. Critics have accused the Justice Department of a double standard, but Garland deferred questions to the lead prosecutor, who was appointed by the previous administration.
