Hunter Biden Pleads Guilty, Charging School Shooters’ Parents, GOP Senate Outlook

Subscribe to 3 Martini LunchSubscribe

Join Jim and Greg for three complicated martinis to close out the week. They discuss Hunter Biden deciding to plead guilty to federal tax charges, whether parents of school shooters ought to face criminal charges, and the forecast for this years U.S. Senate elections.

First, they focus on Hunter Biden abandoning his plan to go to trial and a subsequent plan to plead guilty without admitting guilt on federal tax charges. Now that he's simply pleading guilty, what does that mean for sentencing, the chances his father pardons him and more? Jim says it's all further proof of one thing - that the critics of Hunter Biden were right and Joe Biden and a lot of other Democrats and media apologists were wrong or flat-out lying.

Second, they examine this week's horrific, deadly school shooting at a Georgia high school and mull over whether officials are right to charge the shooter's father with two counts of second-degree murder and four counts of involuntary manslaughter for failing to keep guns away from his 14-year-old son who had already been evaluated as a possible threat. Are charges like this a good way to keep parents more vigilant and accountable for their kids' actions and for their own actions or does criminal blame belong solely with the killer?

Finally, they examine the U.S. Senate map this year. And while odds look favorable for Republicans to reclaim a slim majority, there are several other seats held by Democrats that should be vulnerable. But so far the GOP challengers are consistently trailing.
