I don’t honestly care about it that much. Biden is correct that these specific specific charges are rarely brought to court, and if Hunter were anyone else, they wouldn’t have been. There WAS political interference by the Republicans ONLY because it was Biden’s son, he was targeted for political reasons, not because of the laws he broke.

The pardon power SHOULD be used in situations of injustice. Individuals being targeted because of who they are related to, race, gender, identity, etc. instead of the merits of the charges themselves. Or where extenuating circumstances provide a lot more context. Law enforcement has a lot of leeway with determining when to arrest and prosecute, and jury nullification exists for context situations at the peer level already. Laws are written by man, and many laws on the books are unjust, some by design. There are situations where something illegal probably shouldn’t be, or the context surrounding it needs to be considered. Sometimes the end does justify the means. Government whistleblowers being targeted for instance.
