Federal prosecutors accuse Hunter Biden of accepting payments from a Romanian businessman "to influence U.S. government agencies" while his father was vice president.

      And that way, without Senate confirmation, is the same way in which David Weiss was appointed special counsel in the Hunter Biden case.

      So, are you defending/citing the work of an illegal appointee? And if so, shouldn’t we also care about Jack Smith’s charges?

          What do you see as the difference that made one appointment legal and the other illegal? (Other than one is investigating a Biden and the other is investigating trump.)

              Huh, so in other words Jack Smith was appointed in the exact same manner as Nicolas Bua, Malcolm Wilkey, and Frederick Lacey.

              But, I am glad you get the silly technicality that has been rejected by every other judge who has heard this nonsensical defense.
