Biden pardons his son Hunter despite the previous statements that he will not do so.
WASHINGTON (AP) — It is now public knowledge that President Joe Biden has pardoned his son Hunter. This pardons the younger Biden who is facing the possibility of going to prison after being found guilty of federal felony gun charges and tax evasion and goes against the president’s previous statements that he will not use his presidential powers to benefit his family. The Democratic-sitting president earlier commented that he will not pardon his son or pardon his sentence following the Delaware and California trials. The move comes weeks before Hunter Biden was to be given his punishment following the trial in the gun case as well as the plea bargain in the tax case and less than two months before Donald Trump is to come back to the White House.
