Sleepy Joe Biden granted a sweeping pardon to his son, Hunter Biden, covering all potential federal offenses from 2014 to 2024. The unprecedented move, which shields Hunter from further prosecution for gun and tax crimes, drew sharp criticism from opponents who argue it underscores systemic favoritism.
Biden defended the decision, claiming Hunter was “singled out” due to their relationship, and accused his political adversaries of weaponizing the justice system. Critics, including incoming President Donald Trump, labeled the pardon a miscarriage of justice and vowed further scrutiny of Biden family dealings.
