Americans everywhere are still reeling from Joe Biden pardoning his son Hunter on Sunday night. This came as a massive shock, as Joe had sworn for years that he would never do this.
In pardoning his own son, Joe showed that he is a shameless liar who can’t be trusted. As recently as June, Joe replied with an emphatic “yes” when asked if a pardon for Hunter had been ruled out.
“I abide by the jury decision. I will do that and I will not pardon him,” Joe said at the time as Hunter was facing trial in the Delaware gun case.
Now, Joe’s wife, Jill, has broken her silence. What she had to say is interesting, given the fact that many believe that she has been the one pulling the strings in Joe’s White House.
From Yahoo News:
President Joe Biden’s decision to pardon his son Hunter may have drawn bipartisan criticism, but it doesn’t seem to be causing nearly as much controversy at home. First lady Jill Biden told reporters Monday that she fully supports her husband’s action.“Of course I support the pardon of my son,” Dr. Biden said in response to shouted questions from reporters at a White House holiday party.
Check out Jill’s full comments on this in the video below.

Joe Pardons Hunter
Meanwhile, this comes after Joe signed a “full and unconditional pardon” for Hunter. This pardon applies to any federal crimes that he may have committed between January 1, 2014, and December 1, 2024. Hunter had been found guilty in a gun case back in June. A jury ruled that Hunter was guilty of counts included making a false statement in the purchase of a gun.
The second charge Hunter was found guilty of was making a false statement related to information required to be kept by a federally licensed gun dealer. The jury also found Hunter guilty of possession of a gun by a person who is an unlawful user of or addicted to a controlled substance. Hunter has an extensive history of drug and alcohol abuse.
Hunter was also facing trial over three felony tax offenses and six misdemeanor tax offenses. This was related to his failure to pay at least $1.4 million in taxes.

Joe Claims Hunter Was Unfairly Targeted
In issuing his pardon, however, Joe claimed that Hunter was being unfairly targeted.
“People are almost never brought to trial on felony charges solely for how they filled out a gun form,” Joe said. “Those who were late paying their taxes because of serious addictions, but paid them back subsequently with interest and penalties, are typically given non-criminal resolutions.”
“It is clear that Hunter was treated differently,” the president added.
When talking about the legal cases against Donald Trump, Joe has frequently said that “no one is above the law.” In issuing this pardon for Hunter, however, Joe is showing the world that his own family is above the law.
In the end, this all proves that the entire Biden family is as crooked as they come. We can’t get them out of the White House soon enough!
