Dec 4, 2024, 03:11 PM

A Delaware judge has accepted President Joe Biden's pardon of his son, Hunter Biden, despite expressing concerns that parts of the pardon may be unconstitutional. This development follows significant political backlash, with House Speaker Mike Johnson labeling the pardon a 'perversion of justice' and indicating that reforms are forthcoming. Johnson criticized President Biden for misleading the American public regarding the pardon, which he argues undermines trust in the justice system. The political discourse surrounding the pardon has intensified, with calls for limits on presidential pardons for family members and accusations of a cover-up linked to the Biden family. The House GOP leadership is expected to address these issues in a press conference following the judge's announcement.
