Reason and emotion! President Biden reverses his commitment and decides to pardon his son before leaving the White House.
US President Joe Biden has pledged not to pardon his son, but this is the only way to keep Hunter Biden out of prison after he leaves office.
On December 2, President Joe Biden unexpectedly announced that he had signed an executive order granting his son, Hunter Biden, a “full and unconditional pardon.” President-elect Donald Trump will not be able to revoke this official pardon.
President Biden said he decided to pardon Hunter Biden because his son was “unfairly prosecuted” and “treated differently” than others who committed similar crimes.
