President Biden personally signed only one pardon during his final days in office—the one for his son Hunter. Thousands of others were stamped automatically by machine. This special treatment for family shows where the president’s real priorities lay.
Hunter Biden had been convicted of serious gun crimes and dodged taxes on over a million dollars. Yet his father pardoned him after promising not to interfere. This broke a direct promise to the American people about keeping justice independent.
The Justice Department approved using autopens for mass pardons to save time. But Biden made sure to put his own pen on Hunter’s pardon document. He didn’t show that personal care for anyone else he let off the hook.
Over 1,500 people got pardons that day through autopen machines. Only Hunter deserved Dad’s signature. This looks like a father protecting his son instead of a president being fair. It sends a terrible message about equality.
Other pardons raised eyebrows too. Biden let Dr. Fauci off for possible COVID wrongs and shielded the January 6 committee members. But Hunter’s pardon stood out because it was done by hand when others weren’t worth the effort.
During his presidency, Biden repeatedly said he wouldn’t get involved in his son’s legal troubles. Then he did exactly that. This flip-flop made many Americans lose trust in his word. It was a classic political move.
The pardon covered every crime Hunter committed between 2014 and 2024. That includes guns and taxes. The president could have helped everyday Americans but focused on family first. Our leaders should put country before kin.
This special treatment for Hunter shows the elite play by different rules. Regular citizens face consequences while powerful families protect their own. It’s a sad example of Washington corruption that needs fixing.
