Joe Biden granted his son Hunter Biden a sweeping pardon on Sunday covering any possible crimes between Jan. 1, 2014, and right up through Dec. 1, 2024. This despite lying and saying he would not do such a thing. It shows you just how much Joe Biden's word means. His action is truly unprecedented in its breadth. But that may not be all -- there may be more coming from Joe Biden between now and Jan. 20. //

The pardon wasn't just for the things to which Hunter had pled guilty, which Joe claimed involved "selective prosecution." That was a nonsense claim to begin with. If anything, the "selectivity" was in not prosecuting him for years for all the behavior that was revealed on the laptop. It meant there would be no prosecution for any federal crime including the alleged foreign influence questions that could touch Joe Biden. Notice the pardon started from Jan. 1, 2014. Hunter joined the Burisma board that year. It also covers all the time that Joe Biden was occupying the Oval Office up until Dec. 1 and Biden meeting or talking with Hunter's business associates. //

But what Biden has done is made it impossible to criticize any pardon that President-elect Donald Trump might give, when Biden is willing to go this low with his son and lie about it. This is true, especially if Biden pardons himself. Not that the MSM wouldn't go after Trump anyway for pardoning J6ers or any other pardon. Of course they will, and they'll talk about how it's destroying all the norms -- that Biden already imploded.

They will have no credibility in doing so, and Biden is going to cost the Democrats even more damage to their brand with his actions.
