In short:
Outgoing US President Joe Biden has pardoned his son Hunter Biden, saying “raw politics … led to a miscarriage of justice”.
Hunter Biden was convicted of gun charges and tax evasion and was facing sentencing hearings scheduled for mid-December.
Joe Biden said he made the decision over the weekend while spending the Thanksgiving holiday with his family.
Hunter Biden was convicted and will be sentenced under Biden’s DOJ. I don’t see what Trump’s election has to do with it.
After a trump appointed judge killed the plea deal.
Yeah, appointed by Trump in 2018.
Yeah, they killed the deal in July.
So again, I can’t see how Trump’s inauguration in January, and any ‘weaponising of the DOJ’ that would occur after that, could have any bearing on Hunter’s conviction earlier this year, and sentencing this month.
Trump appointed judges are likely to be loyal to trump, like that loose cannon which delayed trumps document case. So pressure from the trump team derailed the plea deal and and made it impossible for hunter to get a fair trial, especially under a trump doj. If he wasn’t joe bidens son he probably would have never gone to trial.
The comment I was originally responding to said:
That is what I was responding to.
So your responses, correct or not, are not relevant to my comment or the comment I was responding to.
You said:
If that is what happened, it happened before Trump got elected.
Hunter has already been convicted, and will be sentenced this month under a Biden DOJ.
