NEW YORK: US President-elect Donald Trump´s attorneys sought to dismiss his historic criminal fraud conviction in a new filing released late on Tuesday -- arguing President Joe Biden used similar reasoning to pardon his son, Hunter Biden.
The Democratic lame-duck president pardoned his son on Sunday, after Hunter was convicted earlier this year of tax evasion and illegally possessing a firearm, arguing he was “selectively, and unfairly, prosecuted” by the Department of Justice (DOJ) “only because he is my son.”
