On Wednesday, a federal judge delivered an unexpected blow to Hunter Biden’s legal team, rejecting his attempt to appear virtually at an October arraignment. Hunter Biden “should not receive special treatment in this manner – absent some unusual circumstances,” federal Judge Christopher Burke wrote in his ruling. The younger Biden will have to appear in person for his arraignment on October 3rd, according to reports from The Hill.
