BREAKING NEWS: Biden pardons his son

After repeatedly saying he would not pardon Hunter, he has just done so.
Thoughts?

I think this is either the 4th or 5th thread on this same topic easily visible right on the New Topic column on the front page.
 
Well, if Trump really wants, I'm sure he can still have charges filed against Hunter again for something.
After the four cases against Trump, it has been proven that they can indeed indict a ham sandwich. 🥪
NOPE he cannot. The pardon is a BLANKET PARDON for anything and everything from 2014 through 2024.
 
That would be the rules that Hunter got pardoned for. The president can issue a pardon at any point after a crime is committed and before, during or after criminal proceedings have taken place. Doesn't that kind of tacitly admit one or more crimes were actually committed? Else why do the pardon if there was no crime?
Not really. The acceptance of the pardon by the convicted, pretty much does, as you said tacitly admit his own guilt. A presidential pardon only pardons convictions or in some cases acts know or unknown, such as possible crimes, not yet prosecuted.
 
Now Joe is prepared to be 25th by Kamala and co.


Ain't gonna happen, that would do nothing for her, if he resigns, that's another story. But I don't think jill would allow that.

Cry me a river, and I will kayak down it, laughing at you. The Biden pardon stands. But hey, at least the government gets to keep the back taxes and penalties already paid before it got to court.;)
Good to know you think tax evasion is a laughing matter, and penalties should be based on political connections.

This is what he pled guilty to:

And what of the unregistered gun?

The "GUN CONTROL!!!" folks suddenly don't seem to care.

Like I said: Intellectually dishonest hypocrites.
 
Trump as President already has the power to pardon who he wishes.

I wasn't even speaking to the gun charges, which at least are somewhat weak (as far as it goes to jailing someone over it, anyway).

I made the comment that Hunter should have received the same sentence as Cohen, since they both pled guilty to the same crime of tax evasion.

White6 thought that was funny, but I would say it is just equal application of the law...

Sorry you do not see Biden Pardons similarly to all other Presidents, but it does not change thing. You can be happy in the fact, he had paid the back taxes and penalties prior to trial, hoping it would be dropped, and the treasury gets to keep the money. Most of the pardons, I have read about, included huge sums in fines and restitutions, never paid, that were wiped clean by presidential pardon. Cheer up.:cool:
 
I love USMBcon Karens' outrage. It's so genuine.
 
He is the lamest of lame ducks, eh? If there were ever a time and place where a U.S. President has no need to give a shit what anyone thinks or says, this is it.

I would wager that if he had asked DJT, Trump would have agreed to pardon Hunter, but I can see why Biden didn't want to put himself in that position, or to make Trump look gracious. It goes against the Hitler Narrative.
I would have taken that bet. There is no concern with trump being gracious. It's not in his nature. The pardon protects Hunter from a politicized future prosecution. Besides, if his name wasn't Biden he wouldn't have been prosecuted in the first place.
