I'm Daily Wire Editor-in-Chief John Bickley. It's Tuesday, June 11th, and this is your Morning Wire Afternoon Update. Hunter Biden, son of President Joe Biden, has been found guilty on all charges related to him lying on paperwork and owning a gun while addicted to drugs. Daily Wire senior editor, Kabbit Phillips, has more.

The verdict was reached after roughly three hours of deliberations over two days. The conviction could land the first son in prison for up to 25 years. Though given his lack of prior offenses, a shorter sentence or probation is more likely. Over the course of the trial, we heard emotional testimony from several members of the Biden family and inner circle, including his daughter and sister-in-law turned girlfriend. Prosecutors built their case around proving that Hunter lied on a federal firearms form in 2018 when he claimed that he was not addicted to any drugs at the time of the purchase. Here's Special Counsel David Weiss after the verdict was announced.

No one in this country is above the law. Everyone must be accountable for their actions, even this defendant. However, Hunter Biden should be no more accountable than any other citizen convicted of this same conduct. The prosecution has been and will continue to be committed to this principle and to the principles of federal prosecution in carrying out its responsibilities.

Meanwhile, the defense did not dispute Biden's well-documented history of drug abuse, but instead attempted to prove that he did not consider himself an addict at the time of the purchase. President Biden previously stated that he would not pardon his son in the event of a conviction.

Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg and prosecutor Matthew Calangelo will testify publicly before the House Judiciary Committee next month. The hearing is expected to happen on July 12th, just one day after President Trump's sentencing hearing. Calangelo worked on Trump lawsuits during his time in the New York attorney general's office in 2018. He left that office on the first day of the Biden administration in 2021 and joined the DOJ. Then in 2022, Calangelo joined Manhattan district Attorney Alvin Bragg's office. Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan has been demanding that Garland turnover records related to Calangelo's employment at the Justice Department. Former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo appeared today before the select subcommittee investigating the coronavirus pandemic. Daily Wire investigative reporter Moreta Lordy has the latest.

The closed-door testimony focused on Cuomo's handling of the pandemic as governor after a damning 2022 report found that Cuomo's Health Department understated the number of nursing home deaths by as much as 50% during certain points during the pandemic. In 2020, Cuomo issued an advisory that forced nursing homes to readmit patients who had been hospitalized with COVID with no requirement to test them first. The former New York governor has previously refuted those allegations, saying the Health Department was following federal health guidance. Cuomo spoke to reporters today and again defended his handling of COVID.

If you had said that to me in year one of COVID, when we had the highest infection rate in the nation, when we didn't know what hit us, and it turns out that we're number 39, only 11 states had a higher pro-rata death. It just vindicates everything New Yorkers did. They isolated, they followed the science. The first responders were masterful, and that's what the facts show.

Meanwhile, subcommittee chair Brad Windstrip says the committee hopes to uncover the circumstance that led up to so many nursing home deaths. He said the following on CNN last month.

The governor wants to say that he followed CMS guidelines, but if you follow the dates, he did not. The guidelines came out in March 13th, 12 days before he issued his mandate for the nursing homes to accept COVID-19 patients.

In a previously unreleased video from January 6, 2021, Democrat Nancy Pelosi appears to take, quote, responsibility for law enforcement's lack of preparedness that day. In the video, a frustrated Pelosi says the following to her chief of staff while being evacuated in a car from the capital complex.

We have responsibility, Terry. We did not have any accountability for what was going on there, and we should have.

The video was posted on X by a House Republican Panel, they say the clip undercuts Pelosi's assertions that Trump was to blame for the January sixth riot. Georgia Representative Barry Lautermilk accuses the J6 Committee of hiding evidence that contradicts Democrat and anti-Trump narratives. And the Biden administration is reportedly considering a proposal that would protect undocumented spouses of US citizens from deportation. According to four anonymous officials, no final details have been ironed out, and the exact details of such a policy are still unknown. The potential program could provide some of these spouses an easier path to citizenship. This all comes on the heels of Biden's executive order last week, which would supposedly lower the number of migrants crossing into the country.
