President Joe Biden issued a pardon for his son, Hunter Biden, addressing federal felony gun and tax convictions. The move marks a reversal of Biden's previous stance against using presidential powers for personal family matters.
In a statement, Biden justified the decision, citing political interference in the legal process: "I believe in the justice system, but as I have wrestled with this, I also believe raw politics has infected this process and it led to a miscarriage of justice."
