Biden Pardon Reeks of Hypocrisy, Deceit and Self-Protection
There is a lot to consider about the broad presidential pardon granted to Hunter Biden this past week but virtually all of it involves lies and hypocrisy.
First, President Biden lied, yet again, when asked if he would pardon Hunter for his crimes. He flatly said “no” and that he would “abide by the jury’s decision.” However, millions of us believe he said that only to keep the prospect of a family pardon from becoming an election issue. However, it’s not the pardoning of his son, in and of itself, that offends.
It’s the fact that in his pardon message Biden states he sought to correct a “miscarriage of justice” and blamed his so-called “political opponents” in Congress for Hunter’s problems. That is just laughable! We may forgive a father for protecting a son—particularly one who has struggled with addiction and other personal problems as his son has—but Hunter’s problems were caused by Hunter! He is a criminal.
Further, in his pardon message Biden also stated that “no reasonable person who looks at the facts could reach any other conclusion.” That’s an astounding statement. Many Americans have drawn very different conclusions about Hunter’s conduct and the legitimacy of this pardon.
For context, let’s look at some other Biden whoppers.
He denied meeting Hunter’s business associates or having knowledge of his overseas business dealings. (In fact, it’s never really been determined whether Biden, “the big guy,” actually received money himself from his son’s business dealings). False, he did meet them as revealed on a number of calls and emails with Hunter’s business associates. Biden also endorsed and repeated the total fabrication by the 51 dishonorable former intelligence officials that the damning information on the Hunter Biden laptop was “Russian disinformation.” Biden fully knew that the claim was false at the time.
That lie likely changed the course of American history because a full 17% of those who voted for Biden in 2020 said they would not have done so had they known of the contents of the laptop. Given the very narrow margin Biden won by, Trump would likely have won the electoral college and the presidency. However, voters did not know of the laptop’s contents just before the 2020 election because national media and major social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter were complicit in completely suppressing that information.
What’s really difficult to swallow about the pardon doesn’t really have anything to do with Hunter himself. It has to do with other Americans like the J6ers, most of whom have been treated terribly by their government and their president. They would never be offered a pardon. This is also reminiscent of the fact that the “Summer of Love” 2020 rioters and looters were never arrested or brought to justice for the billions of dollars of damage and great harm they caused. This is what is called a “two-tiered” system of justice.
Again, with Biden attempting to justify his pardon due to his “political opponents” the hypocrisy is rich and deep. In the persecution by lawfare—and near assassination, twice, of Trump, Biden demonstrated the very worst actions of a so-called “political opponent.” He also allowed the ugly and unprecedented raid of Trump’s Mar-A-Lago home over some documents that Trump alone had the power to declassify in the first place.
As Miranda Devine points out in the New York Post, “What’s surprising is that anyone is surprised that Joe Biden is a liar. He has lied his way into office. He is renowned in his life as a plagiarist; … he was even caught plagiarizing when he was at university back in 1965. And one of his presidential bids failed due to his plagiarism,” Devine said. “And so, it’s fitting that he’s lying on his way out of office about whether or not he was going to give Hunter a pardon.”
We really shouldn’t be surprised if the next Biden pardons go to Jim Biden and other corrupt family members.
All of this contributed to President Trump receiving the overwhelming victory and mandate that he received in the election. The Bidens may not have a bottom regarding the depths to which they will sink for personal or political gain, but the American people certainly have a limit to their tolerance of it.
Thank God for Trump and let us all pray that the Secret Service is not so corrupted that his life is again placed in mortal danger.
