Biden's Pardon Sparks Debate Amidst Political Tensions
TL;DR Summary
President Joe Biden pardoned his son, Hunter Biden, to protect him from political opponents, a move that has sparked criticism from both Republicans and some Democrats who argue it undermines trust in the judicial system. Hunter faced charges related to tax offenses and firearm possession, which Biden claims were politically motivated. The pardon has also prompted Donald Trump to suggest clemency for January 6 rioters, further fueling political tensions.
