Obviously, the Credentialed Media is soft handing this, where, let’s say it was Trump pardoning his child for tax evasion and lying on a gun form they’d be Fire Alarm Category 5
Joe Biden Makes History as First President to Pardon His Criminal Son
President Joe Biden spent his final days in office rolling out a full and complete pardon of his criminal son, Hunter Biden.
“I will not pardon him,” Joe Biden said in June after a jury found him guilty on three federal gun charges.
NBC News reported on the pardon:
The decision marks a reversal for the president, who has repeatedly said he would not use his executive authority to pardon his son or commute his sentence. The pardon comes ahead of Hunter Biden’s Dec. 12 sentencing for his conviction on federal gun charges. Hunter Biden also is set to be sentenced in a separate criminal case on Dec. 16, after pleading guilty in September on federal tax evasion charges.
Here’s Joe

If he wasn’t Joe’s son the IRS would have prosecuted years ago. They might not have found the lying on his gun form, but, he would have been in big trouble for failing to pay taxes. Of course, if he wasn’t Joe’s son involved in the graft he wouldn’t have been making all that money. Joe had to do this quick because sentencing was scheduled for December 12. Interestingly, the pardon is backdated to 2014, even though his crimes were between 2016 and 2019. What happened in 2014? Hunter started working for Burisma in 2014.
But, this opens up a big can of worms: what about other people who committed the same crimes: do they get pardoned? Why do people who committed much less tax fraud get convicted and possibly spend time in jail while Hunter doesn’t?
More importantly, this means that Trump should pardon all the J6 folks, particularly those who never committed any violence.
It was inevitable. I suspect the autopen in the white house has had a stack of pardons loaded ever since Trump won. I also suspect the 25-year olds in the White house has been making them as novelty gifts for their friends.
If Biden had not done this, Trump should have. In America we need to recognize that the term “No one is above the law” was only ever a campaign slogan against Trump. Lots of people are indeed above the law and it has been that way since the founding of our country. It is a rational step to conclude that some people, because of their notoriety, and increasingly because of political party, simply cannot receive a fair trial. Thus, it makes no sense to waste the resources to go through the farce of investigations and trials when the outcome is already predictable and has nothing to do with justice being done. Even when someone is obviously guilty, the taint of corruption ruins everything, including the possibility of a fair trial.
Joe Biden was irredeemably corrupt and he got away with it. Just like with Hillary, no jury would convict her. And in DC and NYC, no notable Republican will ever be found innocent.
Commenter: Joe Biden was irredeemably corrupt
By all means point out President Biden’s corruption…
LOL. Compared to Don Trump, Rudy Giuliani, Paul Manafort, Matt Gaetz, Steve Bannon, Roger Stone, Musk, Kashyap Patel, Trump U, Trump Foundation…
In many ways Biden’s dishonesty and corruption is not too dissimilar from the Rimjob’s.
Bwaha! Lolgf!
MAGA47 Motherfucker!
New sheriff coming to town.
Hunter Biden was only prosecuted because he WAS President Biden’s son. This would have been handled easily if Hunter had been any Joe Bloe.
President Biden lied when he said he would never pardon Hunter, but as we all know, lies don’t count during a presidential campaign.
Of course the President is going to protect his family from Donnie the Mob Boss who has immunity from any crimes he commits as prez. That said, expect Fat Donnie to order AG Pam Bondi to go after Hunter anyway. Her putative subordinate, FBI Director Kashyap Patel, will help her. “I am your retribution”, says Fat Donnie. “That’s a nice country you have there, would be a shame if somethin’ were to happen to it”.

“Fat Donnie” is an allusion to “Fat Tony”, aka Don Marion Anthony D’Amico, the mob boss in Homer Simpson’s Springfield (voiced by Joe Mantegna). Also Anthony “Fat Tony” Salerno, Genovese NYC mob family boss during the ’80s. But mostly the Homer one.
Chicken Little Hamas Karen Man (??)
Biden has pardoned Hunter because he was fearful that Hunter, when faced with an actual investigation, would turn on him and cut a deal, telling the truth about Daddy’s actions.
But there is the brother, and others, so the investigation is not over.
We can see the reason you alluded to Fat Tony on the Simpsons and Fat Tony Salerno since Trump isn’t fat he’s over weight. You’re fat! Plus Trump has dego black hair all greasy and slicked back, has olive skin, shoots people, he’s I-talian, and all the other attributes of a full on Mafia boss.
Now that Trump won by a landslide you think he’s gonna do to you corrupt bums like you did to him. I doubt it but it’s so cute to hear you whine about being a victim even before the guy is inaugurated.
We are gonna have so much fun during the next twelve plus years. You have all gone totally insane as if you weren’t already there. LOL
CarolAnn,
We’ve never met, but I suspect you are as physcially ugly as Fat Donnie and as your typings.
Trump did not win by a landslide, please stop lying. It was a very close race.
But keep gloating. Trump has two years. The Dems will definitely win the House in a landslide in 2026. Trump is guaranteeing that. The Dems may win back the Senate in 2026. It’s unlikely Supremes are as extreme and vengeful as Fat Donnie.
Keep gloating, but you gravely underestimate Americans. They did not elect MAGAnazism. They voted for cheaper gas and groceries and fewer immigrants. We can’t blame Fat Donnie for taking advantage of this opportunity to dismantle American governance, since he has nothing to lose. “The DOJ and FBI raided his home with a shoot-to-kill order and sniffed his wife’s underwear”. If he lives long enough, he’ll be president until 2029. After that, he gives less than a shit. All his legal troubles are disappearing.
That’s correct, we have never met but I have seen your picture therefore I know that you are fat. There is no call whatsoever to call me physically ugly. And “fat Donnie” isn’t fat he’s thick. Can you tell the difference? Nor is he ugly. In fact he has always been a nice looking man.
I’m sad you find it necessary to strike out personally at everyone who makes a comment or observation you don’t like but that’s what immature people do. We all realize you’re tied up in knots because after all the cheating and lying your god still lost the election by a landslide. Tough for you. I guess now after insulting and attacking LG Brandon in such vile and filthy ways it has become my turn. Okay, whatever.
As long as you dems keep acting the way you are you aren’t going to win crap back. Just keep disrespecting the majority of Americans and see how far it gets you. People like you have taken the Democrat party from a party of winners to a party of pathetic haters and losers and that’s where you should be.
See you in 2026.
A fitting final note to the most corrupt administration in recent history. Joe claims Hunter was picked on, but he pled guilty to the tax charges- afraid all the dirt about $20M, laundered through fake corporations, family involvement, and God-only knows what else would come out at trial. Thanks to those two determined IRS investigators we know what this family was all about. And so will future Americans.
A question for my peers.
Can a president pardon someone for a crime that has not been charged/convicted?
I think the USSC may become involved.
James, I’m certainly no peer, but what I know… (and is easily discovered)
Article II, Section 2, Clause 1 of the U.S. Constitution: The President … shall have Power to grant Reprieves and Pardons for Offenses against the United States, except in Cases of impeachment.
For example, President Gerald Ford pardoned Richard Nixon for any federal crimes he may have committed related to the Watergate kerfuffle. But this pardon was never examined by SCOTUS.
But pardons cannot extend to potential crimes not yet committed. A pardon for a murderer doesn’t apply to a future murder! It’s unsettled whether a president can self pardon.
Pardons can be rejected by the subject!
Current norms are in President Biden’s favor, but it IS entirely possible that Mr Trump’s Supreme Court could decide it’s time to limit pardons by Democratic Presidents! Given the motivation, legal eagles can always find something. They can always reverse their decision if it impacts Trump’s pardons in 2028.
More silly excuses from the Rimjob. Biden lied to you.
Ah yes! Biden shoved it up the media’s ass too!
Good and hard!
Bwaha! Lolgfy!
MAGA47 Motherfuckers!
