President Joe Biden announced Sunday that he has pardoned his son Hunter Biden, who faced sentencing this month on gun crime and tax convictions, marking a reversal as he prepares to leave office.
“Today, I signed a pardon for my son Hunter,” the president said in a statement. It is a “full and unconditional pardon,” according to a copy of the executive grant of clemency.
This official grant of clemency cannot be rescinded by President-elect Donald Trump.

Good.
And anyone who thinks this will “justify” Trump doing wild pardons, please remember this:
1. He has already did it at the end of his first term;
2. His cabinet nominees lets us all know exactly what is second term is going to be like;
3. He was going to do wild pardons anyway;
4. He just nominated Charles Kushner to be ambassador to Framce. Kushner is a man who tried to honeypot his own brother in law and send the tape to his sister.
4a. Guess who pardoned Charles Kushner?
