Hunter Biden Convicted on Gun Charges in Historic Trial, Impact on Biden's Campaign

Hunter Biden, the son of President Joe Biden, has been convicted in federal court on three felony counts related to drug use during the purchase of a handgun in 2018. The Republican Party has seized upon the verdict to launch renewed attacks on President Joe Biden's integrity, while Democrats argue that the case demonstrates the independence of the justice system.

Hunter is also facing separate tax-related charges in California. The sentencing for the gun case is expected later this year.

The conviction has raised questions about its potential impact on Biden's reelection campaign and his ability to rally his base.
