Congress to Probe Biden's 'Shocking' and 'Disgusting' Last-Minute Family Pardons for Non-Violent Offenses
Jan 22, 2025, 05:42 PM
House Speaker Mike Johnson has announced that Congress will launch an investigation into former President Joe Biden's last-minute pardons of his family members, including James Biden, Sara Jones Biden, Valerie Biden Owens, John Owens, and Francis Biden. Johnson described the pardons as 'shocking' and 'disgusting,' emphasizing that they were issued for more than a decade of non-violent offenses. The pardons were criticized by Johnson as potentially validating the notion of the 'Biden crime family.' He contrasted this with the reaction to similar actions implied by former President Donald Trump, noting the outrage expressed by Democrats at the time. Johnson's comments suggest a forthcoming scrutiny of these actions by Congress.
