Boosie Badazz thinks Joe Biden‘s Department of Justice reissued a gun charge on his case.
On Wednesday (Jan. 22), the Baton Rouge artist took to X/Twitter with a couple of grievances aimed at Biden’s DOJ, General Merrick B. Garland, who he claims has put a gun charge on his case that was “dismissed.”
Boosie used his post to beg President Donald Trump to examine his legal information to see what’s going on, as he feels that Biden’s administration improperly hit him with the same charge that Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, was pardoned for before the 46th president left office. Later in his post, Boosie claims to have been “targeted” in this case.
“Trump CHECK MY CASE OUT MY CASE WAS DISMISSED BUT BIDENS DOJ RECHARGED ME WITH THE SAME GUN CHARGE BIDEN PARDON HIS SON OF,” he typed. “I WAS TOLD I AM THE ONLY PERSON IN THE COUNTRY FACING THAT CHARGE NOW. PRESIDENT TRUMP, I ALREADY WAS GIVEN A 10 YEAR SENTENCE N STATE N 2009 FOR 3 rd offense MARIJUANA ( grams ,grams,grams ) I NEVER WAS EVEN OFFERED REHAB STRAIGHT TO PRISON. TRUMP IM BOOSIE IM A RAPPER/ FILMMAKER FROM BATON ROUGE .I WAS TARGETED.. MY MOUTH N THINGS I STAND ON GET ME N ALOT SH*T BUT IM REAL! My lawyer MEGHAN BLANCO can explain this case. She knew the charges n against you were bad she even spoke about it on radio.”
This isn’t the first time Boosie has begged Donald Trump to do something about his gun charge. In November 2024, a day after the election, the “Wipe Me Down” rapper uploaded a post to X/Twitter where he asked the then-incoming commander-in-chief to “pardon” him on his “fed case.” The charge in question found the artist being indicted in early 2024.
“@realDonaldTrump CAN U PARDON ME ON MY FED CASE ? i’m a NON VIOLENT FELON. THE COURTS RULED THAT a NON VIOLENT CANNOT BE CHARGED WITH A 922g .THE JUDGE DISMISSED MY CASE BUT THE RULING HAS BEEN APPEALED SO ONCE AGAIN I WAS INDICTED IM FIGHTING THIS CASE THIS IS THE EXACT CASE to US VS DUARTE THAT WAS RULED UNCONSTITUTIONALoh one more thing can u sit down with me n talk about U GIVING POLICE immunity. I THINK THIS WILL MOTIVATE OFFICERS TO COMMIT DEADLY CRIMES. ‘PLEASE DONT DO THIS’ anyway congratulations on your win LETS GET THIS MONEY N DROP THESE TAXES’ sh*t killing me.”
In June 2023, the entertainer, né Torrence Ivy Hatch Jr., was detained in San Diego after law enforcement discovered two weapons in a vehicle he was riding in. For that incident, Boosie was charged with “being a felon in possession of a firearm.” This charge against him was ultimately dismissed under the Biden Administration, per NOLA.com.
However, Hatch Jr. was then hit with an indictment for a second time on federal gun charges in July 2024 after law enforcement uncovered new evidence in the dismissed San Diego case.
