President Joe Biden's recent decision to pardon his son, Hunter Biden, has sparked significant backlash from both Republican and Democratic lawmakers. Critics argue that the pardon sets a troubling precedent and undermines the integrity of the U.S. justice system, which they have sought to protect against perceived attacks from President-elect Donald Trump. The pardon reportedly covers a decade of potential criminal charges against Hunter Biden, adding to the controversy surrounding the decision. This backlash comes at a time when the Democratic Party is already facing challenges following recent electoral losses, intensifying concerns about the political ramifications of Biden's actions.
