President Biden paid a visit to his daughter-in-law, Hallie Biden, on Sunday night, just days before the ninth anniversary of the passing of his son, Beau Biden, who was married to Hallie. The president's brief visit holds significance as Hallie is expected to testify as a witness in her ex-partner Hunter Biden's upcoming gun crime trial next month.

The first son, Hunter Biden, is facing charges of making false statements on a federal form during the purchase of a firearm in 2018. A police report from October 23, 2018, revealed that Hallie had discarded a gun owned by Hunter in a dumpster near a school. The incident forms a crucial part of the case, making her likely to be required as a witness during the trial.

While President Biden's visit raised eyebrows due to its timing, his allies argue that there was nothing inappropriate about the gesture. However, a reporter from NBC News faced heavy criticism for drawing attention to Hallie's connection to the trial on social media.

The trial proceedings for Hunter Biden held their final hearing recently, before jury selection is set to begin on June 3. Previous reports from Fox News stated that prosecutors plan to present evidence from Hunter's book and laptop, including photos, in an effort to prove his guilt regarding false statements made while purchasing the firearm.

Judge Maryellen Noreika clarified that Special Counsel David Weiss must establish that Hunter Biden was addicted to drugs, but not necessarily using drugs on the day of the firearm purchase. In response, Hunter Biden's defense attorneys filed a "motion in limine," requesting the exclusion of certain personal details from the trial, including his child support proceedings in Arkansas and his discharge from the Navy. These details pertain to his out-of-wedlock child with Lunden Roberts, an ex-stripper, who is also President Biden's grandchild.

The defense team acknowledges that some evidence, such as purported drug-related transactions and the purchase of the revolver, may be relevant to the case. However, they argue that references to money spent on "adult entertainment, online chat rooms, or escort services" are not related to the charges and should be excluded to prevent unfair prejudice.

As the trial date draws near, the legal battle surrounding Hunter Biden's actions continues, with his family members navigating their own involvement in the proceedings. The country remains eager to see how the trial unfolds and if it will have any implications for the President himself.
