Conservative commentator Mark R. Levin has sparked controversy by accusing President Joe Biden of potential witness tampering. The allegation arises from Biden’s recent visit to his daughter-in-law Hallie Biden’s home, just days before she is expected to testify in Hunter Biden’s gun trial.
Levin took to Twitter on Tuesday, May 28, stating, “Biden witness-tampering in broad daylight! He should be questioned about his meeting with his daughter-in-law,” in response to reports of the president’s Sunday night visit to Hallie’s house.
Fox News highlighted that the visit coincided with the upcoming 9-year anniversary of the death of Biden’s son Beau, who was married to Hallie before his death in 2015. This timing has raised suspicions, given Hallie’s anticipated role as a witness for the prosecution in Hunter Biden’s federal trial, where he faces charges of lying on a gun purchase form.

A 2018 police report revealed that Hallie, who was in a relationship with Hunter at the time, allegedly disposed of a handgun belonging to him by throwing it into a dumpster behind a grocery store near a school. As someone knowledgeable about Hunter’s gun possession and possible drug use, Hallie is considered a key witness against him.
The White House has denied any wrongdoing, with Biden supporters insisting that the president’s visit was purely familial, marking the somber anniversary of Beau’s passing. However, critics like Levin view the visit as a possible attempt to influence Hallie’s testimony or to dissuade her from testifying against Hunter.
Hunter Biden has pleaded not guilty to the charges, and his defense team is working to exclude certain personal details, such as his Navy discharge and child support issues, from being presented at the trial to avoid prejudicing the jury. Prosecutors, on the other hand, intend to use evidence from Hunter’s memoir, laptop contents, and other sources to prove he lied on the gun form while using narcotics.
With jury selection set to begin on June 3rd, the case is already full of twists and turns. The revelation of President Biden’s visit to a prospective prosecution witness just days before her expected testimony has added another layer of controversy and suspicion to this high-profile matter.
As the trial approaches, the potential impact of this late-hour move by the president remains to be seen. All eyes will be on the courtroom to see how these developments unfold and whether they will influence the proceedings.
