Ever since Justice Clarence Thomas wrote a solo concurrence in the Trump v. United States immunity case and inspired Judge Aileen Cannon to throw out Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago indictment on Appointments Clause grounds, Hunter Biden’s defense has embraced the rationale to challenge the validity of special counsel David Weiss’ cases against him, whether the California tax case that has yet to go to trial or the Delaware felony gun case that is in post-conviction status.

On Tuesday, Biden’s lawyers once again lauded the argument that “nothing” special counsel David Weiss has done in that “capacity” is “valid,” urging U.S. District Judge Maryellen Noreika to decide on the merits whether she agrees with Thomas and Cannon — and dismisses the gun indictment for lack of jurisdiction — or whether she agrees with Weiss and allows the case to proceed toward sentencing in November.

The defense began by accusing Weiss and prosecutors on his team of “bend[ing] over backward” in a “telling” way to argue against Noreika’s consideration of the issue of the special counsel’s authority.
