Hunter Biden, the son of US President Joe Biden, has struck a deal with federal prosecutors that will likely keep him out of jail. He agreed to plead guilty to two misdemeanor tax charges while avoiding prosecution for possessing a firearm as a drug user.
                
Investigators were looking into Hunter&#039;s failure to file taxes on time in 2017 and 2018. They say he earned more than 1.5 million dollars. And they say he illegally bought a handgun in 2018 despite being addicted to drugs.
                
An attorney at a federal court in Delaware released details of the agreement on Tuesday. It says Hunter will plead guilty to two misdemeanor tax offenses and enter a so-called &quot; diversion agreement&quot; on the gun charge. Prosecutors often use such agreements to drop a charge if the defendant agrees to treatment programs.
                
A judge will ultimately decide the penalties, but Biden is unlikely to go to trial or serve time in jail.
                
The president&#039;s Republican rivals lashed out at the deal. They say it represents a &quot;double standard of justice.&quot;
                
House Speaker Kevin McCarthy said the Department of Justice is trying to put the president&#039;s leading political opponent, former President Donald Trump, in jail while the president&#039;s son gets a &quot;sweetheart deal.&quot;
                
Trump wrote on social media the deal shows the justice system is &quot;broken.&quot; He himself is under indictment for hiding classified documents in his home and refusing to return them. He has pleaded not guilty to all 37 counts.
