The possible charges are two misdemeanor counts for failure to file taxes, a single felony count of tax evasion related to a business expense for one year of taxes, and the gun charge, also a potential felony.

NBC News does let us know that there's "growing frustration" inside the FBI because both FBI and IRS investigators finished with their Hunter investigations around a year ago and nothing has been done.

The Washington Post previously reported that federal investigators believed they had gathered enough evidence to charge Hunter Biden with tax crimes and a false statement related to a gun purchase.

The decision on which charges to file, if any, will be made by U.S. Attorney David Weiss, who was appointed by President Donald Trump and retained by the Biden administration to continue the Hunter Biden investigation. There are no indications a final decision has been made, said the two sources familiar with the matter. -NBC News

In short - the DOJ is lagging on Hunter's slap on the wrist.

We're sure the above reporting was triggered by the IRS whistleblower - the guy in charge of the agency's Hunter Biden investigation - who came forward earlier this week in a letter to lawmakers, accusing the DOJ of 'mishandling' the Hunter Biden case. What's actually notable here is that the story is big enough that the NY Times can't avoid reporting on it.
