Congress Faces Fall Deadline To Address Debt Ceiling

A federal jury found Hunter Biden guilty on all three federal felony gun charges he faced. Follow here for the latest live news updates, analysis and more.

CNN's Paula Reid reports on how Hunter Biden and his supporters reacted after a federal jury found him guilty on all three federal felony gun charges he faced, concluding that he violated laws meant to prevent drug addicts from owning firearms.

On Tuesday, a federal jury in Delaware convicted Hunter Biden of three felonies related to federal gun crimes. In 2018, while in recovery, the now-president’s son wrote on paperwork for a gun purchase that he did not abuse illegal drugs. President Joe Biden said last week that he would not pardon his son if he was convicted. During the trial, Biden’s former romantic partners spoke about his struggles with crack cocaine addiction.

By BILL BARROW (Associated Press) ATLANTA — Groups pushing tighter gun laws have been building political muscle through multiple elections, boosted by the outcry following mass shootings at schools and other public places, to say nothing of the nation’s daily gun violence. Now, gun control advocates and many Democrats see additional openings created by hard-line positions of the gun lobby and their most influential champion, former President Donald Trump.

Here's what "the party of the working class" intends to do to the tax system: Republicans in Congress are preparing to not just extend former president Donald Trump’s 2017 tax cuts if they win control of Washington in November’s elections, but also lower rates even more for corporations. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) lowered rates for individuals of nearly all income levels, though it cut taxes most for the highest earners, and slashed the maximum corporate tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent.
