President Biden pardons son Hunter

After years of claiming he would not do so, President Joe Biden issued a pardon for his son's felony gun and tax convictions on Sunday. 

Hunter Biden was convicted of three felonies in June. The president's son was found to have lied to a licensed gun dealer and on an application form about his status as a drug user when purchasing a gun in 2018. A third felony found Hunter Biden guilty of possessing a gun while using drugs. Hunter Biden had also pleaded guilty to several tax-related charges in September. President Biden's pardon clears his son of all charges.
