    Froma Harrop: Where do we file Hunter Biden in our mindless politics?

    I have no interest in either defending or condemning Hunter from a legal standpoint. He is now facing a special counsel investigation after a plea agreement on tax and gun charges fell apart. Let the wheels of justice roll. Let the legal authorities take it from here. If Hunter has been turning his life around, that's nice but not relevant.
