Attorney General Merrick Garland and President Joe Biden's Justice Department have been sued for failing to require Hunter Biden to register as a foreign agent.
While Garland is defendant in the lawsuit, the America First Legal (AFL) allegations go back to former President Barack Obama's administration, when Hunter Biden directly represented Ukraine energy company Burisma in dealings with the Obama White House. It is a violation of Foreign Agent Registration Act (FARA) under 22 U.S.C. § 611(b), according to the complaint.
"As detailed in our complaint, the record is quite clear," AFL VP and General Counsel Gene Hamilton wrote in a statement. "Hunter Biden appears to have used his unique access and position to the benefit of multiple foreign principals. Any other American would have been criminally prosecuted for failing to register as a foreign agent for this conduct — but not under Merrick Garland's Department of Justice, which continues to go out of its way to help President Biden, his family, and his radical liberal allies.
