Tucker Carlson released Episode 5 of “Tucker on Twitter”, the monologue successor to his former Fox News program, scorching the Biden administration and its Department of Justice for giving Hunter Biden what conservatives are calling a “sweetheart deal” that will see the president’s son avoid jail, NARA charges, and firearms charges.
Carlson released the episode this afternoon after his producer, Justin Wells, foreshadowed its release earlier in the day.
“President Biden’s inept son, Hunter Biden, gets a sweetheart deal from the DOJ,” wrote Wells. “Tucker responds today, right here, in a new episode of Tucker on Twitter.” He sardonically added, “No cable or laptop repair shop required to watch.”
President Biden’s inept son, Hunter Biden, gets a sweetheart deal from the DOJ. What a joke.
Tucker responds today, right here, in a new episode of Tucker on Twitter. No cable or laptop repair shop required to watch.

Carlson uploaded the episode this afternoon in a tweet captioned, “As in the most developing world, it’s safer to be the president’s son than his opponent.”
“This morning, Hunter Biden pleaded guilty to pretty much nothing,” Carlson launched. “Biden pled to two misdemeanor tax evasion charges, then entered a diversion on a federal gun charge. That’s it.”
“As far as Merrick Garland’s Justice Department is concerned, Hunter Biden is done. There was no pre-dawn raid, carried live simultaneously on CNN. There was no perp walk, no handcuffs, no press conference. Above all, there was no felony.” Carlson continued, “Hunter Biden, who broke federal gun laws, can still carry a gun. It’s like it all never happened. In fact, the Justice Department just baptized Hunter Biden. A lifetime of sins washed away in an instant.”

“For the children of the people in charge, there are no penalties. There are only upsides. They’re princelings. They can do what they want. You are not. Therefore, you can’t. So don’t get any ideas about cheating on your taxes or violating federal gun laws, unless you want to celebrate next year’s Father’s Day through the glass in the visitor’s room. The rules definitely apply to you, including rules you don’t yet know exist.”
Carlson also turned his ire to Biden Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre – who has repeatedly reminded the media that she is the first black lesbian with an immigrant background to hold the job – noting that she recently declared herself a “historic figure.”
“I’m a historic figure? Imagine saying that,” Carlson mocked. “And she says it in a burst of sincere self-congratulation, marked by her signature bad grammar. Illiterate but proud! Of course she’s proud. Karine Jean-Pierre is now a historic figure. Just like Hunter Biden is now an important artist. It makes you feel stupid for going to work.”
