A while ago, I was asked on air whether President Biden would pardon his son Hunter. My response was straightforward, if not obvious. “He repeatedly claims he won't, but that means he will.”
The question was easy. Biden always intended to forgive his son. No one should be surprised that he lied about it repeatedly for months. Although his record in Washington is marked by many failures, it is his penchant for fraud, fabrication, and grandiose lies that is so pronounced.
They date back to 1988, when Biden plagiarized speeches and brazenly lied about his educational background, forcing him to withdraw from the presidential race. Since then, fables, fables, and falsehoods have become so vast that they consume vast amounts of printed matter. He ranks at the top of the DC Liars Hall of Fame for his shadyness.
Biden pardons son Hunter Biden before leaving White House
Biden's pardon novel was months in the making and politically motivated. As NBC reports, the possibility of a pardon was discussed when Hunter was first convicted on gun charges in Delaware last June. However, the White House has decided to “publicly say that[the president]will not pardon his son even if it remains on the agenda.”
In the run-up to the presidential campaign, Biden has repeatedly declared that he respects the judicial system and will let convictions stand. When Mr. Hunter entered a guilty plea on tax charges in Los Angeles, Mr. Biden doubled down on a promise he had no intention of keeping.
Knowing that a pardon would ignite a campaign fire, Biden and his staff intentionally deceived the American public because revealing the truth would hurt the Democrats' chances of retaining the presidency. I chose. The ends of power justified immoral means. It makes fun of Biden's assertion that “no one is above the law.”
But it's actually worse than that.
With the stroke of a pen, Biden went far beyond expunging his son's convictions in both Delaware and California. The president issued a broad and indecent disciplinary action against his son for all other crimes he “committed or may have committed” during the decade in which he is suspected of spreading influence that made the Biden family tens of millions of dollars in wealth. granted a conditional pardon.
The sad outcome of the Biden corruption scandal is that Americans can no longer trust that our legal system is fair and impartial. The ideal of equal justice under the law appears dead and buried.
That bit of information was conveniently omitted from Biden's presidential statement accompanying the pardon document itself. As if no one would notice.
This turned out to be the same blanket exemption Hunter had requested last year in his father's infamous sweetheart deal with the Justice Department and the U.S. attorney in Delaware. It infamously imploded when a federal judge began asking uncomfortable questions about favoritism.
President Biden's sweeping pardon means Hunter will not be charged with a variety of federal crimes that prosecutors should have charged in the first place, including bribery, conspiracy, money laundering and foreign lobbying crimes.

In what could be the largest public corruption case in U.S. history, there is compelling evidence that Mr. Hunter ran corrupt financial schemes with Ukraine, China, Russia, Romania, Kazakhstan and other foreign adversaries. There is a good chance that the next Department of Justice will reconsider these charges based on this.
The presidential pardon was not only beneficial to the son, but also self-serving. There is substantial evidence that Joe Biden actively aided and abetted Hunter's plan to sell the promise of access and influence. Blocking any future charges against the son would prevent further investigation into the father.
Hunter's laptop turned out to be a treasure trove of incriminating evidence suggesting that Joe Biden was part of a secret deal to profit from his office as vice president. One email warned employees: “Please don't mention anything Joe is involved with.” Personal wealth and engraftment continued unabated.

The infamous Burma case in Ukraine had all the elements of a classic quid pro quo: giving a son benefits in exchange for millions of dollars spent lavishly. About $5 million in pay-to-play deals with China were lost after Hunter threatened a Beijing businessman that his father was sitting next to him and that he would take revenge if the cash was not paid. We gathered. It happened.
The Biden administration's Justice Department repeatedly ignored clear evidence of wrongdoing. IRS whistleblowers reveal how prosecutors tipped off Hunter's lawyers, canceled a legitimate search warrant, forbade any questions about Joe's involvement, and purposefully passed the statute of limitations for the most serious crimes. He talked about it in detail.
By protecting Hunter, they were protecting the President.
In his pardon announcement Sunday night, President Biden absurdly claimed that his son had been “selectively and unfairly prosecuted.” The opposite is also true. Hunter benefited from preferential treatment. He is not a victim, he is a perpetrator. Anyone not named Biden would have felt the full force of federal law.

Biden's statement explaining the presidential pardon is a stunning fraud. He incorrectly states that tax delinquencies are typically resolved outside of criminal cases. This would come as quite a surprise to the hundreds of tax evaders with different surnames who are criminally prosecuted every year. Biden also claims that people will never be brought to trial on the same types of gun charges brought against his son. That too is clearly false.
“I believe in the justice system,” Biden insists, even as he gets whipped into the head. However, in the same sentence he denounced the result as a “miscarriage of justice.” His cognitive dissonance shows that Joe Biden is nothing but a pathetic hypocrite. His litany of lies continues.
The sad outcome of the Biden corruption scandal is that Americans can no longer trust that our legal system is fair and impartial. The ideal of equal justice under the law appears dead and buried.

During his four years in office, Joe Biden attempted to imprison his political opponents in an unconscionable legal campaign while abusing his power to protect himself and his family from criminal liability.
There is no greater oppression than when justice is denied and oppressed.
