On Sunday, U.S. President Joe Biden announced he had pardoned his son, Hunter Biden. In a statement issued by the White House, he explained, “Today, I signed a pardon for my son Hunter. Since taking office, I have upheld my commitment not to interfere with the Justice Department’s decisions, even as I witnessed my son facing selective and unfair prosecution.” Biden expressed hope that Americans would understand the rationale behind his decision, both as a father and as the President.
