People Have THOUGHTS When It Comes To Joe Biden Pardoning His Son, Hunter

In an official statement explaining his reasoning, Biden wrote: "From the day I took office, I said I would not interfere with the Justice Department’s decision-making, and I kept my word even as I have watched my son being selectively, and unfairly, prosecuted... No reasonable person who looks at the facts of Hunter’s cases can reach any other conclusion than Hunter was singled out only because he is my son – and that is wrong."

"For my entire career I have followed a simple principle: just tell the American people the truth. They’ll be fair-minded," he continued. "Here’s the truth: I believe in the justice system, but as I have wrestled with this, I also believe raw politics has infected this process and it led to a miscarriage of justice – and once I made this decision this weekend, there was no sense in delaying it further. I hope Americans will understand why a father and a President would come to this decision."
