A federal grand jury in California has indicted Hunter Biden on nine charges, including three felonies, for failing to pay his taxes, understating his income, and exaggerating his expenses on tax returns between 2016 and 2019. The president’s son could face two criminal trials next year as his father runs for reelection against Donald Trump, who himself is facing four criminal cases. He is also facing separate criminal charges against him pending in Delaware for illegally possessing a gun. The Hunter Biden cases were brought by special counsel David Weiss, the Delaware prosecutor who has long supervised the federal probe into the president’s son. The new charges include tax evasion, filing false returns, failure to file returns on time, and failing to pay federal taxes. They carry a maximum possible prison term of 17 years, although defendants typically get shorter sentences under federal guidelines.   Each of the tax charges accuses Biden of acting “willfully,” somethi...

However, they have been frustrated in their efforts to tie down the player who has a £150m price tag. Writing in his Daily Briefing on Thursday, Romano stated, “Despite what Napoli are saying about Victor Osimhen and a new contract, I’m not sure they are that close to signing a new deal. Napoli president De Laurentiis has shown many times that he likes to use the media also to put some pressure, so it’s also normal.  “Napoli are trying, Napoli are trying with the best proposal in their history to Osimhen – it’s a high...
