President Joe Biden’s decision to pardon his son, Hunter Biden, for federal felony gun and tax convictions is both a political earthquake and not at all surprising. After years of insisting he would not intervene in his son’s legal troubles, Biden reversed course in a move that some say highlights a 50 year tension between his words and his actions .
Critics will rightly seize on this as a betrayal of his prior statements and a perfect example of liberal logic and hypocrisy. They argue it reinforces perceptions of privilege and undermines the integrity of the justice system. For years crying that Trump is a threat to democracy, this pardon puts Biden in the role of threat to law and justice necessary for a true democracy. The pardon supports any accusations of double standards and political favoritism. Biden’s credibility also suffers as he accuses the Department of Justice under his watch of being motivated by politics.
It’s important to note that most Americans already doubted Biden’s claims of detachment from his son’s challenges. This decision, while shocking, feels almost inevitable. It reflects what many had suspected—that Biden would ultimately protect his son, no matter the political cost.
It is reasonable to think that any parent in Biden’s shoes might have done the same. Most however never would have lied about it in the first place. No one believed Biden’s denials, and this decision only confirms what most believe, blood is thicker than political heat.
