The decision, which was first reported by NBC News, is a reversal for the president, who repeatedly said he would not use his authority to pardon his son or commute his sentence.

Summary

President Joe Biden pardoned his son Hunter Biden, reversing his prior stance against using executive clemency.

The pardon covers Hunter’s federal gun conviction and tax evasion guilty plea, sparking political controversy.

Biden cited political attacks and a “miscarriage of justice” as reasons for his decision, emphasizing his son’s recovery from addiction and the targeting of his family.

Critics argue the move undermines the judicial process, while supporters view it as within Biden’s constitutional powers.

This decision shields Hunter from potential prison time as Biden nears the end of his presidency.

    It’s not.

    Democrats have always been held to a higher standard. So it’s SUPER SHOCKING when they do something corrupt, even if it’s minimal like this.

    What you’re seeing is a bunch of whiny bitches complaining about Democrats while Republicans get off scott free like always. It’s the American way.

    These are the same whiny bitches that voted 3rd party because they didn’t like Biden’s actions regarding Palestine, so they became single issue voters, and now Trump is our president because of it.
