Hunter Biden is making every attempt possible to have three criminal charges related to his 2018 purchase of a handgun thrown out by a federal judge at Delaware, going so far as to make the grandiose argument that he — like the murdered Romanov children during the Russian Revolution and the infant son of Prince Hector, who was thrown over the walls of Troy — is guilty only of being the child of a prominent political figure.

In a series of motions to dismiss the gun charges brought against Mr. Biden, his attorney, Abbe Lowell, argues that Special Counsel David Weiss has it out for the first son and is doing the bidding of the GOP.
