President Biden's son Hunter's iPhone reportedly had pictures and videos of "apparent" cocaine, crack cocaine and drug paraphernalia.

According to the Department of Justice, the president's son took "multiple photographs" of his alleged drug use in November and December 2018.

Tuesday's filing showed photos and text messages from Hunter's iPhone of exchanges with his drug dealer.

"Prior to October 12, 2018 (the date of the gun purchase), the defendant took photos of crack cocaine and drug paraphernalia on his phone," the documents said. '"Also prior to his gun purchase, the defendant routinely sent messages about purchasing drugs."

The correspondents show Hunter asking for "baby powder" and "the really soft stuff."

The filing also revealed that Hunter talked about his drug use with his then-girlfriend, Hallie Biden.

"You have lost your mind hunter. I'm sorry I handled it poorly today but you are in huge denial about yourself and your reality that I just want you to be safe. You run away like a child and blame me for your s---," messages from Hallie said. "It's to be expected that you go, you prove repeatedly that you can't stay and really do work on yourself," she said. "It's easier for you to avoid looking within and cowardly to constantly point the blame on me."

The news comes as Hunter is charged with lying about his drug use on a federal form.

The DOJ showed the images in court to prove that Hunter was allegedly addicted to drugs when he answered "No" to drug use.

The president's son pleaded not guilty to federal gun charges in U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware in October, which accused him of lying about using drugs in October 2018 on a gun purchase form.

He previously acknowledged that he struggled with a crack cocaine addiction during a period in 2018, but his attorneys said he did not break the law.

Hunter Biden has since said he has stopped using drugs and is working to turn his life around.

Hunter Biden was charged with making a false statement in the purchase of a firearm; making a false statement related to information required to be kept by a federal firearms licensed dealer; and one count of possession of a firearm by a person who is an unlawful user of or addicted to a controlled substance.
