Summary
President Joe Biden pardoned his son Hunter Biden, prompting strong backlash from Republicans.
GOP lawmakers criticized the move as an abuse of power and an attempt to avoid accountability, with figures like Rep. James Comer and Sen. Chuck Grassley calling it hypocritical and corrupt.
Biden defended the pardon, citing “selective prosecution” and claiming Hunter was unfairly targeted due to their family connection.
Hunter faced convictions for federal gun and tax charges.
I saw an excellent analogy on here. The Republican Party is a dad molesting their kid. The Democrats are the mom turning a blind eye. One of those is objectively better than the other, but the kid should be seperated from both. Cheering for blatant political corruption is disgusting regardless of which side does it.
