The A.P.'s Michael Kunselman is at the courthouse in Wilmington, Delaware. He's in him of lying to get a gun while he's in the throes of a crack addiction back in 2018. Mr. Biden was charged and convicted of all three counts, which is two counts of making false statements in one count of illegally possessing a gun while he was in the throes of his addiction. Special counsel David Weiss says the conviction show no one is above the law. Everyone must be accountable for their actions, even this defendant. However, Hunter Biden should be no more accountable than any other citizen convicted of this same conduct. The A.P. Sager McGonney reports the convictions have changed the White House schedule. The administration scrapped Spokesom and Karine John Pierre's planned briefing and announced President Biden would head to Delaware to spend the night with his son and family. Instead of coming back here to the White House tomorrow, the president will head straight to Air Force One and a flight to Italy for this week's G7 summit.
