Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) has so far stayed silent on the decision by President Joe Biden to give a wide-ranging pardon to his son Hunter. The development is likely a tough pill to swallow for the lawmaker, who had publicly celebrated a verdict against Hunter earlier this year as an illustration of Democrats "willing to accept" negative legal outcomes, unlike their Republican counterparts.
Back in June, AOC said that the conviction of Hunter Biden on charges related to lying on a mandatory gun purchasing form showed that "if anything, this shows the difference that Democrats are willing to accept when our justice system works."
