Going after Hunter Biden was purely political. Republicons did this to a senator and his son back in the ‘50s. The republicans tried to get the senator to resign because his son was charged with an indecent act. Would not have today btw. They put so much pressure on this father that he shot himself. Pure disgusting conservative politics!! If Biden thought about it more good for him! He would have been throwing his son to the wolves when T gets in. And please don’t compare that shady disgusting president elect and his sham of pardons he made to President Biden. Griw up and read your history.
Its not going to work…….. there all going to fall …
There you go leftist … a rapist ,extortionist Kabal was pardoned don’t you all look foolish now… rules for theee but not for meee

Classic Liberals. Lie steal cheat. Great Job.

Isn't this the time of year when Biden pardons turkeys?
He didn’t pardon his son. He pardoned his business partner and his shady dealings with foreign countries that the Big Guy had a piece of
Didn't realize this was an issue impacting Canadians! lol
Anything to report on foreign interference? SDTC corruption?
No one above the Law???? Tell that to Trump and Maga !! RIGHT ON PRESIDENT BIDEN !!💙 Hello to Hunter and Family!!💕 fr: 🇨🇦

The SHAME that Joe Biden has brought to the Office of the Presidency will forever be etched in the minds of American Citizens across the Country and throughout the World.
His political Corruption is a Stain on our Country. He will go down in History as the Most Corrupt and Grossly-Incompetent Liberal Democrat politician ever to be installed in the White House. He is a Total Embarrassment to our Nation!!!
Talk about conflict of interest ???
Trump pardoned Jared's jail father…pretty well the same thing…move on…cry babies
fathers protect their famlies
Biden’s family stole from us tax payers.
The President is above the law? Remember? Trump and SCOTUS designed THAT.
Trump will fix this.
Not to worry, Hunt will be testifying against Big Guy in a year or so.
Are you all surprise? It is a given! The Elite has different laws apply to them. Money and power always speak louder than words!!!

Hey, remember when Trump was convicted of 34 felonies. How did that work out.
What do you expect from the Hypocrite Democrat liars
PARDON TRUMP ?!
So happy I voted for trump never again will I ever vote democrat EVER
They use pardon Powers to cover up crimes
On average Dems are less crooked than repubs, but not by all that much. In the end they serve the same masters. Sorry if this upsets your delusions, but take a good look at what's happened to America in the last 45 years.
Must be nice to be a presidents party kid.
Pathetic cowards. Every crime for the past 10 years without exception…C'mon man.
This is Ignorant…Teump Is a Criminal thru and thru and No Media
calls him on his Crimes and Who Trump pardoned…please shit tge feck up already
Convenient…
Hopefully, Trump can get them for their crimes … it should be illegal to pardon this weasel…
wow globe really sugar coated this . i surprised they didnt say he read bedtime stories to orphaned children when his wings were out for cleaning
Another reminder we live in a completely different existence from the wealthy elite. But ya'll will fight tooth and nail defending them.
Tax evasion, unregistered gun possession, numerous drug charges. Money laundering, taking political bribes from Ukrainian corporations, and others. Also, lying to police, and federal prosecutors. These are merely the things we know of.
Only now does the media want to play whataboutism after all those years of saying lock him up when Trump was charged with demonstrably false accusations. The charges which were laid required only verdicts and no pardons despite the enormous money and effort mobilized against him.
We always knew the politicians were dirty and unaccountable. But now everyone knows the media are mouthpieces for crooks and conmen. They are clearly doomed to an imminent future of collapsed relevance and audience share. That’s just the least they deserve in terms of consequences. In a more just world, some of these talking heads would do some jail time.
In a few months Trump will pardon HIMSELF. So yeah… don't blame Biden so quickly..
Well I guess the Democratic party can't do anything then Trump give out his PARDONS
if it was barrack obamam son he wouldnt of gotten pardoned
I am ,we are Above the Law. anyway , we’ll go on a vacation 😂
$1.4 million unpaid taxes , no sweat . I owed taxes , the IRS is after my worn out shoes.🤬🤬🤬
The law is for everyone – equally
The Crime family is discussing.
Put a sock in it! Trump pardoned his daughter's father-in-law and will be pardoning every one of his co-January 6th conspirators and himself. This pardon pales in comparison.
