Biden probably didn’t really care about the gun and tax charges, he knew that most likely Biden would get a light sentence and maybe even pardoned by Trump.
What he was worried about is OTHER charges that could be brought against him that would involve the whole influence peddling scheme, that is why he got a blanket pardon for everything from 2014 onwards.

-If this is true, especially since it is RubyRed So Dakota, get a better Republican Senator from that state.
Unless you are a Liz-Cheney-Republican, no way you can say that Wray is “a good man” when speaking about his performance as FBI director. You couldn’t even say good woman, good person, or even good llama-lover.
He has been terrible, the FBI has too many times said something like “we had him under surveillance” AFTER a person commits a heinous crime, and the FBI under his watch has been hostile to whistleblowers.
