Biden's Pardon of Son Sparks Debate and Criticism

Following President Biden's pardon of his son Hunter, advocates and lawmakers are urging him to use his clemency powers to address broader injustices in the legal system. They are calling for clemency for federal death row inmates, individuals with marijuana convictions, Indigenous activist Leonard Peltier, those serving lengthy federal prison terms, and immigrants who served in the US military. These groups argue that clemency could correct past injustices and align with Biden's campaign promises on justice reform.
