Show notes

In this excerpt from the CAFE Insider podcast, Preet Bharara and Joyce Vance discuss Hunter Biden’s expected guilty plea on two federal tax charges, and his agreement to enter a pretrial diversion agreement on a gun charge.

In the full episode, Preet and Joyce break down developments in the Donald Trump cases:

– The Washington Post report that the FBI and DOJ resisted opening an investigation into Trump’s involvement in January 6th;

– The “no-contact order” imposed in the Mar-a-Lago documents prosecution that bars Trump from discussing the case with the co-defendant and witnesses; and

– Trump’s interview with Fox News’s Bret Baier, in which he criticized the Mar-a-Lago documents indictment, denied that he improperly retained national security materials, and appeared to admit that he delayed complying with a subpoena to return documents.
