The pardon extends beyond Hunter Biden’s recent convictions for gun and tax charges and spans an 11-year period, covering activities dating back to 2014. At that time, Joe Biden was vice president and tasked with overseeing U.S.-Ukraine relations, while Hunter Biden held a lucrative position with a Ukrainian energy company despite lacking relevant experience.

Pirro’s Criticism of Biden’s Actions

Pirro alleged that President Biden has been complicit in covering up his son’s actions, citing his repeated denials of involvement in Hunter’s business affairs.

“Joe Biden started this presidency by claiming, ‘I know nothing about my son’s businesses,’” Pirro said. “And now he’s ending it by lying again and pardoning his son.”

She noted that the pardon encompasses the years when David Weiss, the special counsel overseeing the case, allowed statutes of limitations to expire on Hunter’s highest-earning years, further raising suspicions about the handling of the investigation.

Details of the Pardon

The pardon covers Hunter Biden’s recent convictions, including lying on a federal form about drug use when purchasing a handgun and failing to pay $1.4 million in taxes between 2016 and 2019.

Pirro argued that the decision to issue such a broad pardon reflects fear within the Biden administration. “They’re afraid of the Trump Justice Department being weaponized to pursue charges David Weiss ignored,” she said.

Concerns About Justice and Accountability

Pirro criticized the lack of accountability, emphasizing that Hunter Biden has not served any jail time despite being convicted of two felonies.

“If Hunter Biden is being singled out because he’s Joe Biden’s son, as the president claims, then why hasn’t he taken action against Merrick Garland or the Justice Department?” she asked. “Joe Biden claims no one is above the law, but Hunter is a glaring example of someone who has avoided accountability.”

She added that most pardons are granted after individuals have served their sentences and paid their debts to society, making Hunter’s case an unusual exception.

Closing Thoughts

Pirro concluded by highlighting the broader implications of the pardon. “This isn’t about justice. It’s about protecting Hunter and covering up Joe Biden’s lies. The president is ending his term just as he began it—by deceiving the American people.”

The controversial pardon has reignited debates over accountability and selective justice, with critics questioning the Biden administration’s commitment to upholding the rule of law.
