Biden Pardons Hunter: A Controversial End to a Tumultuous Presidency
President Joe Biden issued a full and unconditional pardon to his son, Hunter Biden, for gun and tax-related convictions. This action reverses previous statements by the president that he would not pardon his son, who faced sentencing this month. The pardon covers potential federal crimes committed between 2014 and 2024, encompassing Hunter Biden’s time on the Burisma board. The president cited unfair and politically motivated prosecution as his rationale for the pardon.
