ABC and CBS both featured segments on Tuesday morning to break the news of Hunter Biden’s guilty plea to two federal charges of tax fraud in his current criminal investigation. Both shows then proceeded to praise his father, President Joe Biden, for his closeness to his son Hunter, and bemoaned the investigation’s negative effects on the President because of this close connection.
ABC News Live’s Diane Macedo brought ABC chief White House correspondent Mary Bruce onto the show to discuss the President’s “close relationship with his son.” Bruce spoke about how the President “believes that his son, Hunter, did not break the law, that he did nothing wrong,” because of this “close relationship.”
