Biden Faces Backlash Over Hunter's Pardon Amid Credibility Concerns
TL;DR Summary
President Biden faces pressure to issue more pardons after controversially pardoning his son, Hunter. With only 26 pardons and 135 commutations granted since taking office, Biden lags behind predecessors like Trump and Obama in clemency acts. As his term ends, Biden is expected to increase pardons, a common practice for outgoing presidents. The decision to pardon Hunter has sparked criticism, reminiscent of past controversial pardons by presidents like Clinton and Ford.
