As we wait for the jury's next move here in
New York V Trump,
President Biden is in Delaware.
That's ahead of Hunter Biden's federal gun trial that starts
on Monday.
And team Biden will reportedly be,
quote, deliberately low key as they watch the trial for
any moments that could be challenging for the president's campaign.
White House correspondent Peter Ducey reports from the North Lawn.
Hey, Peter and Shannon, this trial is a little bit
different because President Biden is not being charged with anything,
but it could reveal some very unflattering details of the
Biden.
Family dynamic when you look at the filings from the
government about text messages that they would like to admit
in this trial beginning on Monday,
one of them has Hunter's ex-wife texting him.
I also found a few crack pipes.
I took them out because our daughter was driving the
car.
There's another text from Hunter,
2 Bose widow, then his girlfriend Hallie.
It says I'm a liar and a thief and a
blamer and a user and I'm delusional and an addict
unlike anything beyond and above all other addicts that you
know. And I've ruined every relationship I've ever cherished.
Hallie, who was on the receiving end of that text,
is expected to take the stand on behalf of the
government's case.
Hallie Biden is a key government witness who allegedly disposed
of a gun that Hunter is accused of buying illegally.
President Biden was at her house this week.
I think the American people should also be told the
full breadth of this.
He visit her days before the anniversary of the passing
of his son.
So they did not talk about her testimony.
This was not about that.
Republican critics, though, are not satisfied with that answer.
We're going to talk about the the rather astonishing fact
that right before the Hunter Biden trial,
Joe Biden decided a little witness tampering is a good
way to start that trial.
President Biden is in Delaware right now.
There's no distance between him and his son,
the defendant. On Monday. They were together on Marine One
today,
Shannon.
All right, Peter Ducey at the White House.
Peter, thank you very much.
