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.
Didn’t say they should play nice. But a bit of nepotism definitely won’t contribute to getting out of fascism. Nor will justifying things based on whether the fascists are doing worse or trying to copy their oppenent’s tactics. All that will do is making people lose faith in their movement.
People have already lost faith in the Dems… Why do you think so many people stayed home?
