I'll do the same if I were in such position.
He dares not leave any family Members to the will of his enemy- Trump,who has even most of the Republican team being surrounded .
He made sense,as Hunter Biden was a politically exposed guy .

it’s hard not to call it nepotism. The guy is literally his son! Would anyone else get that kind of pardon if they weren’t a family member. Fair point, but presidents do have the right to pardon anyone. It’s in the Constitution. Maybe he thought Hunter was unfairly targeted or that the charges were politically motivated.

There’s a difference between pardoning a political ally and pardoning your kid. It feels way more personal, like blurring the line between public service and family business.
But if such happens in any other part of earth. You may be one of the critics that will be screaming abuse of power.

Politicians are the same every where.

America ain't different from Nigeria politics. There's nepotism there also but the country works because of much lessser corruption and love for one another unlike our evil leaders here
Love for one another for where? Identity politics is just as hot if not hotter. I dare say hotter.

Binden would have set up a good example with his own son,why because if those criminal behind the bar,those drug addict are being given same chance they will seek for forgiveness too

It's nepotism. American politics is like Nigerian politics. The only reason why their politicans perform is because most of the country's income comes from tax, and if you start messing around with people's tax...what happened in France in 1792 ad will happen again.....

Otherwise, American politics is very much like Nigerian politics. One American on quora once told a story about a government worker who was being paid for doing nothing. He was not sacked because he was put there by a politican.....lol.
Don't compare United States to Nigeria our leaders are looters, how much did you hear Trump or Biden have looted, or how many of their Governors did your hear did same

So you expect his enemy to facilitate the imprisonment of his son while he has the highest opportunity now..
Those idiots crying foul now have delayed Trump sentencing for a third time now.. Crazy how it seems, even the judges belong to political parties in America..

Re: President Biden Pardons His Son, Hunter Biden by TheChameleon: 7:46am On Dec 02, 2024
There's nepotism EVERYWHERE.

It's just degree that matters.

I try to drum this into the heads of foolish Yoruba. We are the only ones who foolishly shout " meritocracy"

It is nepotism. But this move was made knowing what the next guy coming in would do.

It wasn't Kamala I was referring to. The government worker was a male and was working in their equivalent of our local government area office

Kamala did use bottom power to get to the top , but she was an effective prosecutor either way. ( Not her fan)

Very true..
Re: President Biden Pardons His Son, Hunter Biden by cococandy(f): 7:52am On Dec 02, 2024
Trump pardoned 146 criminals including his in law who he’s now making an ambassador. What a joke!

I’m glad you guys recognize that democrats are way too law abiding that this is making news for you guys.

Not only are you not a politician, you also don’t know what you’re talking about.


Did she sleep with everyone that voted for her? Because every position she occupied was an elected seat and she got voted into it. Unless you’re saying she slept with everyone that voted for her, then you are just parroting misogynistic talking points. Where a woman can succeed unless she slept with someone
