In short:
Outgoing US President Joe Biden has pardoned his son Hunter Biden, saying “raw politics … led to a miscarriage of justice”.
Hunter Biden was convicted of gun charges and tax evasion and was facing sentencing hearings scheduled for mid-December.
Joe Biden said he made the decision over the weekend while spending the Thanksgiving holiday with his family.
If we have to live under Trump’s weaponized justice department, Joe Biden’s kids should too.
I understand the sentiment, but having hunter biden getting tortured by trump’s DoJ isn’t gonna make our suffering any less bad.
Like I’m not exactly “happy” that he did that, nor am I “angry” about it. I just look at this and go “understandable, I would’ve done the same in his shoes”.
