Former Obama-Era AG Says Hunter Biden Should Be Treated Like ‘Any Other American Citizen’

Published on

Former Attorney General Eric Holder said Sunday that Hunter Biden should be treated “just like any other American citizen” by federal authorities reportedly probing his business dealings abroad, The Hill reported.

“The defendant should not be treated any more harshly because of who he is, who he is related to or given breaks because of who he is or who he is related to,” Holder said of the president’s son while appearing on CBS’s “Face the Nation.”

“He should be treated, just like former President Trump, should be treated just like any other American citizen,” Holder added.

“If there is culpability, that person should be held liable for his or her acts. And if there is not a basis for a case, a case should not be brought,” he said.

Holder, who led the Justice Department during the Obama administration, said the case will likely reach the attorney general’s desk before any decision is made about charges.

“That’s certainly the way I would have run the Justice Department. And my guess is also that that would be something that [Attorney General] Merrick Garland will be doing as well. That determination will be made I suspect in Washington, D.C.,” Holder said.
