President Joe Biden previously had pardoned his son Hunter Biden, who had been convicted in a criminal gun case and pleaded guilty in a tax case.

No further info in the article as it’s breaking news. NBC broke into the inauguration to announce it.

Biden pardoned his entire family and their spouses as Trump directly threatened all of them.

      “The Repbulicans under Trump will end Democracy! Vote for us!”

      “How about you use your legal powers to prevent a threat to Democracy? How about you run on a popular platform?”

      “Yeah no, we don’t do that. Also we got Dick Cheney on board. Look at all the ghosts of Iraqi kids he murdered glooming behind him. Aren’t they cute? Also we will enact more policies for the good billionaires. #Vibes.”

          As the Democrats have declared there is good billionaires and bad billionaires, it should be obvious that they are two sides of the same oligarchy.

          If you want anything to improve you need to get rid of the oligarchy as a whole. But the oligarchy has successfully spend a lot of money on gaslighting people into fighting over which oligarchs to support instead.
