While January 6 political prisoners rot in the gulags for trespassing and a former president may get arrested next week for a misdemeanor, crack-smoking, influence-peddling, illegal-gun-buying Hunter Biden is a free man. Why? Perhaps the bigger question is why are so few in conservative media asking about Hunter Biden’s free pass.
The topic pops up every now and again. Some politician makes a comment. Some journalist posts a Tweet. But it certainly feels as though the people who could do something about Hunter Biden such as politicians or law enforcement aren’t doing much at all while those who should be exposing his crimes, namely conservative journalists, are acting like the story is dead.
Until Hunter Biden is behind bars (along with the vast majority of members in his crime family), this story isn’t dead. It should be repeated over and over again because it’s the most blatant example of the protected political class thumbing their collectivist noses at the rest of us.
Here’s an article by Bob Unruh reporting on Congressman Tom Tiffany asking the questions that should be hammered home every day until the right answer is given…
Congressman Asks Why Hunter Biden Escaped Prosecution for Gun Form Offense
Joe Biden’s son Hunter signed a form when buying a gun a few years back affirming that he was not a user of illegal drugs. Then he admitted in his book he was.
So now the question of why he has not been prosecuted for violating a statute requiring truthful answers during the federal procedures to purchase a handgun has come up in Congress.
JUST IN: GOP Rep. Tom Tiffany asks why Hunter Biden is not in prison for lying on his background check to obtain a gun.
Great question! What happened to ‘equal justice under the law’?pic.twitter.com/O6ohnBhWNF

It was Wisconsin Rep. Tom Tiffany who asked, during a hearing on guns, “Why hasn’t Hunter Biden been prosecuted for the crime that he committed?”
When the witness, Rob Wilcox, of the group called Everytown for Gun Safety, responded that he wasn’t aware of the facts of the case and couldn’t comment, Tiffany followed up with the next logical query.
“Who do we talk to to see why this case is not being prosecuted?” he asked.
Just the News reported Hunter Biden’s apparent lie on the federally required form to buy a gun came back in 2018.
But he had been removed from the military for drug use, and afterward came out with a book confirming that he repeatedly used illegal drugs.
Tiffany pointed out, “He said very clearly in his book that he used drugs.”
Someone else on the committee tried to derail his questioning, and he noted, “I understand why you do not want Mr. Wilcox to answer that question because there’s a dual system of justice in America that’s what’s going on right now. And everybody’s talking about it across America. There’s two standards of justice that are going on.”
WND previously has reported on the scandal, one of the lesser scandals that have beleaguered the Biden family in recent years.
The New York Post reported that in October 2018 Hunter Biden’s sister-in-law-turned-lover, Hallie Biden, allegedly tossed Hunter’s .38-caliber revolver in a dumpster outside a grocery store in Wilmington, Del.
Hallie, who had been married to Hunter’s late brother Beau Biden, reportedly claimed in text messages that she was afraid her boyfriend would “use” the gun, the report said.
The issue is that when Hunter bought the gun he stated he was not using illegal drugs, even though that happened at the height of his self-admitted drug bingeing.
Government watchdog Judicial Watch has reported getting 487 pages of records from the U.S. Secret Service regarding that scandal.
The watchdog noted that Secret Service officials openly discussed media reports of the agency’s involvement, with one finding it “odd” the Secret Service was involved at all.
It’s because Joe Biden and Hunter Biden were not getting Secret Service protection at the time.
Another official noted, “Maybe we were asked for a favor?”
Judicial Watch said it is looking into “whether and how the Secret Service intervened for Hunter Biden in an incident involving a gun allegedly owned by him. In September 2022, Judicial Watch filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit for records or communications about the reported purchase, possession, and disposal of a firearm owned by Hunter Biden found in a Delaware dumpster in October 2018.”
The details about the scandal were passed back and forth among Secret Service officials, with one commenting, “Oh dear…”
The responses included one that said, “It’s kind of odd that we were involved in the missing gun investigation when neither Hunter or Joe were even receiving USSS [Secret Service] protection at the time? Hmmm,” and another that said, “Maybe we were asked for a favor?”
Secret Service officials notified about the events included James Henry, then in charge of the Philadelphia office, Michael D’Ambrosio, assistant director, Steven Stanford, deputy assistant, and Leonza Newsome III, deputy director.
The agency did confirm agents “visited StarQuest Shooters & Survival Supply and asked to take possession of the paperwork Hunter had filled out to purchase a gun there. The FBI also had some involvement in the investigation.”
But the agency also released a statement about the same time that its agents “had no involvement” in the situation.
The gun shop operators have reported federal officials asked for the paperwork regarding the gun sale.
At one point, a Politico report said it was “curious” that Secret Service agents tried to take control of the paperwork from the gun purchase.
Further, Judicial Watch reported, text messages from Hunter Biden’s abandoned laptop confirmed, “She stole the gun out of my trunk lock box and threw it in a garbage can full to the top at Jansens [sic]. Then told me it was my problem to deal with.”
National Review reported when Hunter Biden answered “no” to the question, “Are you an unlawful user of, or addicted to, marijuana or any depressant, stimulant, narcotic drug, or any other controlled substance?” he may have committed a felony.
The question was part of a background check in order for him to purchase the gun.
The report confirmed, “Hunter Biden has battled drug addiction through much of his adult life, and was discharged from the Navy in 2014 after failing a drug test. The president’s son was stopped by police with a crack pipe in his car in 2017, and an assailant aimed a gun at him while he was trying to purchase cocaine in Los Angeles in 2016.”

Why Bullion Beats Numismatics and Collectible for Your Safe or IRA
Precious metals continue to attract Americans seeking reliable ways to protect their wealth amid inflation, geopolitical risks, and stock market swings. Whether stored in a home safe or held inside a self-directed IRA, physical gold and silver deliver tangible value that paper or digital assets often lack. Yet investors must choose carefully between bullion—pure bars and coins valued mainly for their metal content—and numismatics or collectibles, where rarity, history, and collector demand heavily influence pricing.
Advisor Bullion serves as a dependable source for straightforward, high-quality bullion. The company specializes in physical gold, silver, platinum, and palladium, emphasizing transparent pricing and products that deliver maximum metal content for every dollar spent. This approach makes it ideal for both personal holdings and retirement accounts.
Bullion consists of refined precious metals in standard forms like one-ounce coins (American Gold Eagles, Silver Eagles, Canadian Maple Leafs) or bars. Their value tracks closely to the current spot price of the metal. A typical gold bullion coin trades near the live gold spot price plus a small premium. This structure keeps costs clear and predictable.
Numismatic coins and collectibles add substantial value from factors such as age, rarity, minting errors, or historical significance. A pre-1933 U.S. gold coin or graded proof piece can carry premiums of 30%, 50%, or even 200% above melt value. While this appeals to hobbyists, it creates complexity. Pricing depends on subjective grading, collector trends, and auction results instead of daily spot prices.
For investors focused on wealth preservation and retirement security rather than building a collection, bullion often delivers better results.
Lower Costs and Better Liquidity for Home Storage
When keeping metals in a home safe or private vault, liquidity and efficiency count. Bullion offers clear benefits:
- You acquire more actual gold or silver per dollar invested. Numismatics divert a large share of your money into rarity premiums and massive sales commission, reducing your metal exposure.
- Selling bullion involves tight bid-ask spreads, so you recover nearly full spot value with minimal fees. Collectibles require finding the right buyer and may sell at a discount if demand for that specific item weakens.
- Bullion prices remain transparent and update with global spot markets. You can track gold near current levels or silver accordingly and know exactly where your holdings stand. Numismatic values are priced by the Gold IRA companies with hefty margins applied.
- Standardized coins and bars store efficiently and divide easily for partial sales. Rare coins often need protective slabs and controlled conditions, adding hassle and expense.
- Bullion enjoys worldwide acceptance. A 1-oz Gold Maple Leaf or Silver Eagle sells quickly to dealers anywhere. Niche numismatic pieces may appeal only to limited buyers, slowing liquidation when speed matters.
In times when quick access to value becomes important, bullion’s simplicity stands out.
Stronger Fit for Precious Metals IRAs
Precious metals IRAs continue gaining traction as investors diversify retirement portfolios beyond stocks and bonds. IRS rules permit certain bullion products in self-directed IRAs if they meet purity standards (.995 fine for gold, .999 for silver) and are held by an approved custodian. Eligible items include American Gold and Silver Eagles plus many generic bars and rounds from recognized mints.
Numismatic and most collectible coins generally face heavy scrutiny from custodians due to valuation disputes and elevated markups. These higher premiums mean less actual metal ends up working inside the account.
Bullion avoids these issues. Its value links directly to verifiable spot prices, which simplifies reporting and lowers the risk of regulatory challenges. More of your IRA contribution purchases real metal instead of dealer profits or speculative upside. Over time, owning additional ounces that appreciate with the metal itself can create meaningful outperformance compared with high-premium alternatives that deliver fewer ounces.
Regulatory guidance from the CFTC and state securities offices repeatedly cautions against aggressive sales of expensive numismatics or “semi-numismatic” coins for IRAs. For retirement planning, transparent bullion from established providers reduces risk and aligns better with long-term goals.
How to Get Started with Bullion
Begin by clarifying your goals. Are you protecting savings in a safe, or moving part of a retirement account into a precious metals IRA? Focus on the number of ounces you can acquire at current prices rather than chasing marked-up collectibles.
Diversify sensibly: use gold for core preservation and silver for its blend of industrial and monetary qualities. Mix coins for easier divisibility with bars for lower per-ounce costs on larger buys. Arrange secure storage—whether at home with proper insurance or through professional facilities.
As economic uncertainties linger and faith in conventional assets erodes, bullion continues proving its worth as a dependable store of value. Its direct approach avoids the hype that sometimes surrounds collectible markets and keeps the focus on the metal itself.
For investors prepared to strengthen their portfolios, Advisor Bullion supplies the expertise and selection needed to acquire high-quality bullion efficiently. Whether building personal holdings or integrating metals into an IRA, their emphasis on transparent, investment-grade products helps secure more ounces today that support greater financial security tomorrow. In a complicated financial landscape, bullion’s clarity and reliability make it the smarter foundation for protecting what matters most.
Justice ultimately finds you, no matter who you are. We just aren’t always around to see it.
