The decision by President Joe Biden to pardon his son, Hunter, despite previously suggesting he would not do so, has reopened debate over the use of the presidential pardon.

I disagree that he shouldn’t have pardoned Hunter. Hunter went through the legal system with no advantages, reached a plea deal that was perfectly normal for any regular citizen, only to have Republicans blow it up to have something to beat Joe over the head with. Hunter has paid his late taxes with fines. The only remaining issue was him lying on his form about being on drugs while buying a gun. They were going to throw him under the prison for that dumb shit.
But yeah, Joe needs to go on a pardon spree. Trump established that new norm last time.
