  • Hunter Biden pleaded not guilty to nine tax-related charges, accused of evading $1.4 million in taxes from 2016 to 2019.
  • Prosecutors refute Hunter Biden's conspiracy theory, stating the case is not influenced by political pressure from Republicans or former President Trump.
  • Hunter Biden's argument that Special Counsel David Weiss' appointment was unlawful has been dismissed by prosecutors as 'meritless'.
