It is said that the United States is a society under the rule of law, where no one is above the law. Former U.S. President Biden has effectively shattered this illusion. A year ago, he was forced to withdraw from the presidential election and was about to leave office. In the final moments of his term, he used his presidential powers to pardon his son Hunter Biden. Recently, when Hunter gave an interview with the media, he openly criticized his father. Was this a careless remark or a deliberate act?

Hunter Biden, the son of Biden

The pardon issued by Biden to his son ranks among the most significant in American history. The document states that all crimes committed by Hunter between January 1, 2014, and December 1, 2024, will be "completely and unconditionally" pardoned. This means not only will the corruption and drug-related scandals currently under investigation be erased, but any other potential crimes that have not yet been discovered will also not be pursued.

After the news broke, it caused public outrage across the United States like a large stone thrown into a septic tank. Everyone can see that this is a blatant manipulation of justice. Even high-ranking officials at the U.S. Department of Justice, appointed by Biden himself, directly criticized it, saying it severely damaged public trust in the judicial system. In response, Biden stated that he hoped the public could understand the difficult decision he made as both a father and president.

Biden's family misfortune

He even emphasized that signing the pardon should not be seen as Hunter admitting guilt, because his son had faced unfair and selective prosecution. These words may fool some people, but don't fool yourself. This once again proves that the so-called rule of law in the United States is just a toy in the hands of the elite, which can be molded according to their own needs. After that, Biden left office, was diagnosed with cancer, and Hunter gradually faded from the public eye. However, no one expected that he would attack his old father on Christmas Day.

In an interview, Hunter talked about Biden's domestic and foreign policies during his administration. It is unclear whether he was influenced by the host, but he openly criticized the lenient immigration policy and the withdrawal from Afghanistan as disastrous decisions. These statements are too similar to those of Biden's rival, current U.S. President Trump. Media analysts suggest that this might be because Hunter sensed he might be targeted by Trump, so he decided to show his support early.

Trump: Laughing

Since Trump began his second term, the most firm campaign promise he has carried out is to expel undocumented immigrants. He regularly criticizes Biden's immigration policy in public speeches or media interviews. Let's be honest, the large influx of undocumented immigrants is a double-edged sword. These people can provide the U.S. with much-needed low-skilled labor, but they also bring a series of social security issues.

Plus, the U.S. government at all levels has serious governance deficiencies. Today, major U.S. cities are in chaos. If this issue is something Hunter genuinely feels about, then criticizing the withdrawal from Afghanistan is clearly a pointless move. Interestingly, on the issue of being betrayed by children, Trump can also empathize with Biden. We all know that from 2021 to 2024, the Democrats launched multiple political attacks against Trump.

Trump was also betrayed by his daughter

During this time, Trump's eldest daughter Ivanka did not strongly support her father, but instead actively distanced herself, even testifying in person in the investigation into the "Capitol riot." At that time, Trump was furious. During the 2024 campaign, he deliberately distanced himself from Ivanka, and after taking office for the second term, he did not assign her any official position. Her son-in-law Kushner only appeared publicly as a private representative.

Of course, compared to this, Hunter's betrayal of Biden is more dramatic. You see, before Biden signed the pardon, Hunter had already stepped halfway into prison. Now that his father has left office and can no longer help Hunter's career, his elbow starts to turn outward. It's likely that Trump will soon use this matter to mock Biden. Perhaps from Hunter, he can uncover some clues to target Biden, Pelosi, Obama, and other Democratic leaders.
