Joe Biden Lied: Pardons Son Hunter Despite Previous Promises Not To
President Joe Biden’s decision to pardon his son, Hunter, is a devastating blow to his own Justice Department and a stark reminder of his campaign promise to not pardon his son. Despite repeatedly vowing not to pardon Hunter, the President has done exactly that, leaving his detractors to cry foul play.
President-elect Donald Trump, who also pardoned several political allies during his first term, was quick to react to the news, tweeting, “Does the pardon given by Joe to Hunter include the J-6 hostages, who have now been imprisoned for years? Such an abuse and miscarriage of Justice!”
Prominent Republicans are calling Biden a liar, citing his repeated denunciations of the Justice Department. Trump himself was quick to react to the news, saying, “I think most people assumed that a father wouldn’t let his son go to jail. And if the president had explained it in those terms, he might have garnered some public sympathy. But he did not.”
Despite his initial promise not to use his platform to benefit his son, Hunter has been the subject of widespread controversy, with many accusing him of using his father’s connections to land lucrative deals. Hunter has admitted to making mistakes during his “darkest days of addiction,” but has also acknowledged that his connection to his father helped him land high-paying jobs.
Critics of the pardon argue that it sets a dangerous precedent, using the power of the presidency to personally benefit one’s family members. Trump, who has a history of using his own power to pardon political allies, is expected to continue to take action against the Justice Department following the news.
The decision has also sparked a media firestorm, with some critics attacking the move as an abuse of power while others have defended it as a necessary action to clear Hunter’s name. As the debate rages on, one thing is clear: Joe Biden has lied to theAmerican people once again, and the consequences will be far-reaching.
