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.

      Hope this helps!

      It doesn’t. The voters proved that “high road” bullshit is pointless. Therefore they will get what they deserve.

      And holding one side to a standard while letting the other side do whatever they want is also hypocrisy

      Hypocrisy is not a virtue and two wrongs don’t make a right.

      In 2024 America it is and they do.

          Yeah this a real win for the working class and “progressive” politics.

          The working class didn’t vote to win. They voted to lose.

            Yup.

            A few weeks before the election Trump and Musk sat down and had a televised discussion in which they they talked about how they hated unions and didn’t respect worker rights.

            Then working class Americans voted them into power.

            We voted against ourselves in the most blatant election ever. We are not a smart society. We deserve to lose.
