On July 10, 2025, new developments emerged regarding Hunter Biden, son of former President Joe Biden, as reports surfaced about ongoing legal and financial challenges despite a recent pardon. On December 1, 2024, Joe Biden issued a full and unconditional pardon covering all offenses Hunter may have committed between January 1, 2014, and December 1, 2024, including federal gun and tax convictions that carried potential prison sentences. The pardon came weeks before Hunter’s scheduled sentencing, which was set to address three felony gun charges and tax evasion involving $1.4 million owed to the IRS. However, a new lawsuit filed by the law firm Winston & Strawn claims Hunter owes over $50,000 in unpaid legal fees from prior representation, highlighting his financial struggles. Additionally, a court filing from March 2025 revealed Hunter is mired in debt exceeding several million dollars and lacks a permanent residence after his $4 million Malibu rental home was deemed unlivable due to California wildfires in January 2025. The Treasury Department recently appointed two IRS whistleblowers, who previously raised concerns about Hunter’s tax investigation, to new roles to investigate IRS wrongdoing, potentially impacting future scrutiny. No new criminal charges have been filed, but the situation remains under observation as legal and financial proceedings continue.
