Hunter Biden is running short on both time and money when it comes to his looming federal trial for allegedly lying about his drug use when he purchased a revolver from a Delaware gun store in 2018. U.S. District Judge Maryellen Noreika has scheduled the trial to start on June 3rd, while POLITICO has reported that Biden’s financial lifeline is tapped out and unable (or unwilling) to advance him any more money to pay for his legal bills.
