Hunter Biden's Filings in His Plea Deal Lay Out Just How Much He Received from Ukrainian, Russian, and Chinese Interests... in 2017 Alone
His American Business Income? $666,666

I have a strong suspicion that this detailing of how much money he raked in in the form of foreign bribes is what his lawyer lied to the court to get pulled from his file.

Clarification: This is his foreign income from 2017 alone.

Hunter Biden's proposed plea deal on two misdemeanor tax charges shows the president's son earned millions from foreign sources in 2017.

During calendar year 2017 -- one of the years Hunter Biden is charged with failing to pay taxes in their entirety -- the president's son earned "just under $1 million from a company he formed with the CEO of a Chinese business conglomerate; $666,666 from his domestic business interests; approximately $664,000 from a Chinese infrastructure investment company; $500,000 in director's fees from a Ukrainian energy company; $70,000 relating to a Romanian business; and $48,000 from the multi-national law firm," the memorandum of the plea agreement read, Politico first reported Wednesday.

"He further negotiated and executed contracts for business and legal services that paid millions of dollars of compensation to him and/or his domestic corporations, Owasco, PC and Owasco, LLC," the plea deal stated.

In more news from the A Father's Undying Love Department, the judge in the Hunter Biden case wasn't buying his excuse -- is this even an excuse? -- that he couldn't pay his taxes because he was too busy spending all of his money on hookers and blow. She noted that he supposedly got sober in 2020 -- so what's been his excuse since then?

CNN correspondent Kara Scannell, who was present in the courtroom, said Judge Maryellen Noreika confronted Hunter as the plea deal fell into jeopardy during the hearing. Noreika refused the initial plea deal to his tax misdemeanor charges agreed upon by the Department of Justice and Biden's legal team, leading to a revised plea deal.

"We did hear a little bit about part of these charges that he's pleading to is when he had told the judge he was already sober and she said to him, 'You were sober, so why didn't you pay your taxes?' and he essentially said he had just become sober, his life was an enormous mess, he was trying to pick up the pieces and put it together, and that essentially fell through the cracks," Scannell said.

Someone will have to explain to me how it's some kind of a defense to tax evasion to say "I was so busy violating federal drug law and shipping hookers across state lines in violation of the Mann Act that it just totally slipped my mind. Muh bad, your honor."
