<p>As President Joe Biden publicly swore he wouldn’t pardon his son, Hunter, he was reportedly discussing that very pardon behind the scenes.</p>
<p>Hunter was convicted in June on three felony counts of lying on paperwork to purchase a gun and owning the firearm as a drug addict, The Daily Wire <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/hunter-biden-guilty-on-all-counts-in-gun-case" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a> at the time. Before Hunter’s conviction, President Biden publicly announced that he <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/biden-claims-he-wont-pardon-his-son-if-hes-convicted-on-federal-gun-charges" target="_blank" rel="noopener">would not pardon</a> his son if he were convicted on the federal charges. Biden <a href="https://x.com/tylerpager/status/1800558268013498870" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reaffirmed this position</a> after Hunter was convicted.</p>
<p>But according to a Sunday <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/joe-biden/joe-biden-issue-pardon-son-hunter-biden-rcna182369" target="_blank" rel="noopener">report</a> from NBC News, during this same period, Joe Biden had private discussions about pardoning his son.</p>
<p>“The president has discussed pardoning his son with some of his closest aides at least since Hunter Biden’s conviction in June, said two people with direct knowledge of the discussions about the matter. They said it was decided at the time that he would publicly say he would not pardon his son even though doing so remained on the table,” the outlet reported.</p>
<p>On Sunday, Biden did, in fact, issue <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/president-biden-pardons-hunter-claims-son-was-singled-out" target="_blank" rel="noopener">a sweeping pardon</a> for his son, absolving him for any crimes “he has committed or may have committed or taken part in during the period from January 1, 2014, through December 1, 2024, including but not limited to all offenses charged or prosecuted (including any that have resulted in convictions).&#8221;</p>

<p>In 2014, Joe Biden was vice president of the United States, and Hunter, without any experience or credentials, was appointed to the board of a Ukrainian energy company. Hunter’s status on that board has led to accusations of Biden family corruption – and the president’s involvement in his son’s business practices.</p>
<p>In 2016, while still vice president, the elder Biden <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/45438/vice-president-joe-biden-bullied-ukraine-firing-ashe-schow" target="_blank" rel="noopener">successfully pressured</a> Ukraine into firing a prosecutor who was investigating a company with ties to Hunter, Burisma Holdings. Biden would go on to brag about the prosecutor’s firing without mentioning the investigation involving his son.</p>
<p>Following up on this reporting, The New York Times <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2019/05/01/us/politics/biden-son-ukraine.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a> in 2019 that Hunter “lacked any experience in Ukraine and just months earlier had been discharged from the Navy Reserve after testing positive for cocaine” and that Burisma Holdings paid him “as much as $50,000 per month in some months for his work for the company.”</p>
<p>Hunter’s dealings in China also brought scrutiny. An uncovered email showed that in May 2017, in a message about receiving a 10% stake in a deal with CEFC China Energy, Hunter wrote, “held by H for the big guy.” “The big guy” was long believed to be Hunter’s father, Joe, and earlier this year, he confirmed that to be the case, The Daily Wire <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/hunter-biden-confirms-joe-biden-was-the-big-guy-referenced-in-message-about-chinese-business-deal" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a>.</p>
