President Biden’s hypocrisy on full display: Pardons his own son after making a point about ‘independent’ justice"

In a move that’s being hailed as a “full and unconditional” pardon, President Joe Biden has announced that he’s granting his son Hunter Biden a free pass for all federal charges related to his time between 2014-2024. Just 50 days before leaving office, Biden had previously declared that he wouldn’t be making the move, stating he’d abide by the jury’s decision. But now, it seems he was just playing a different tune.

TL;DR

President Biden pardoned his son Hunter Biden, who was facing up to 25 years in prison for lying on a federal form about his drug addiction. This comes after months of saying he wouldn’t make the move, and is being met with criticism from politicians and others who called him out on his earlier stance. A case of “my family is more important than I am” - how about keeping your promises for once?

    If he hadn’t been related to Joe Biden he wouldn’t have had the lifetime of cushy boardroom and lobbyist jobs to lead to being persecuted.

        Oh no, the millionaire was prosecuted for breaking the law.

        Oh and don’t forget the unpaid taxes they were after him for as well.

        Why is everyone so mean to the millionaire presidents son, he has it rough.

            That I should feel bad that the millionaire son of a president was targeted for breaking the law?

            No, I didn’t miss it. It’s a pointless point.

                Like I said, it’s a pointless point.

                I don’t give a fuck if he the only reason he got a bit of justice is because he was targeted due to his father. Scum getting justice is scum getting justice regardless.

                Instead of clamouring to defend millionaire for being singled out, why don’t you spend your energy arguing for every other one to get the same treatment?

                  No that’s the thing, you can’t say it’s a pointless point if from the beginning you never managed to grasp what the point was in the first place because your never actually took the time to reread what you said and then read what I said properly.

                  If he hadn’t been related to Joe Biden he wouldn’t have had the lifetime of cushy boardroom and lobbyist jobs to lead to being persecuted.

                  You’re saying that his cushy life lead to him being persecuted, but regular folks that lie when buying a firearm (and who commit other crimes) also get persecuted and prosecuted so there’s nothing exceptional about Hunter Biden.

                  Hell, you can’t even hold a thought because you were the one saying he got persecuted because of who his father is so YOU were the one defending in the first place!

      You’re not going to solve nepotism by showing a picture of Hunter’s dong in Congress.
