President Joe Biden may have been sleeping at the wheel when it came time for him to protect the American people. However, Hunter Joe Biden became wide awake when it was time for him to pardon his son, Hunter. On June 11, 2024, a federal jury convicted Robert Hunter Biden on Three Felony Tax Offenses and Six Misdemeanor Tax Offenses.
According to the United States Sentencing Commission (.gov), “nearly two-thirds of tax fraud offenders were sentenced to imprisonment (63.9%). The average sentence length for tax fraud offenders was 15 months.”
The jury also convicted Hunter Biden on drug charges. There are 64,543, 44.1% serving time in state and federal prisons on drug crimes.
The 54-year-old Biden was scheduled to be sentenced by the judge who oversaw the case on December 16, 2024.
Weeks after the June 11 verdict, the President said he would not commute or pardon his son. Aldo, in June, the President issued a statement that said he would accept the outcome and “continue to respect the judicial process as Hunter considers an appeal.”
Biden said his son Hunter’s prosecution was politically motivated. President Biden appointed U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland, who brought the case against Hunter Biden.
As expected, Congress on both sides of the aisles has taken divergent stances based on party lines.
Eric Holder, the attorney general under President Obama, said, “The case against Biden should not have been brought in the first place.”
Hunter has also faced three felony charges related to the purchase of a revolver in 2018.
During the trial, Hunter Biden’s ex-wife and a former girlfriend testified about finding his crack pipes and other drug paraphernalia.
Hunter Biden had faced up to 25 years in prison.
Biden’s statement to the American people read in part, “Today, I signed a pardon for my son Hunter,” It is a “full and unconditional pardon.”
Republican lawmakers have attacked Biden as a liar, saying that he promised that he would not pardon his son, Hunter Biden. If they believed that promise, then they are idiots. Every one of those hypocrites who are complaining about the pardon would have done the same thing if they were in Joe Biden’s shoes.
