Weiss's Final Hunter Biden Report Criticizes Presidential Pardon, Says Biden Undermines Justice System

Jan 13, 2025, 11:20 PM

The Department of Justice has released Special Counsel David Weiss's 27-page final report on the prosecution of Hunter Biden, criticizing President Joe Biden for undermining the justice system by characterizing the investigation as politically motivated and granting a presidential pardon to his son. The report, sent to Congress, defends the impartiality and thoroughness of Weiss's investigation, stating that the prosecutions were the culmination of thorough, impartial investigations and not the result of partisan politics. Weiss noted that 'eight judges across numerous courts have rejected claims' that the prosecutions were politically motivated and called the President's criticism 'gratuitous and wrong.' The report comes after President Biden pardoned his son before sentencing, following Hunter Biden's guilty plea on tax crimes and conviction on gun charges. Weiss expressed that the President's comments and actions have injected partisanship into the justice system and undermined public confidence. Due to the pardon, Weiss indicated that he cannot comment on or pursue further potential charges against Hunter Biden.
