The impending pardon of Hunter Biden can now casually be added to the list of not-so-shocking political spectacles that America has become accustomed to. Editor-in-Chief of Breitbart, Alex Marlow, had already raised the alarm months in advance, predicting that Joe Biden would round up the family drama by pulling out the presidential pardon card for his son, despite a valiant effort from the White House to deny it. With the official announcement now made, it’s clear that the Biden family knows how to play politics in a way that would make even the most seasoned campaign managers envious.
President Biden recently announced his decision to pardon Hunter, arguing that his son was the victim of an “unfair prosecution” related to charges involving a firearm and tax evasion. This was no ordinary press statement; it was practically a family manifesto, straight from the heart of a father who has officially gone full VIP on the justice system, claiming that “raw politics” had tainted the judicial waters. One can’t help but wonder if “fairness” in a criminal justice system is really meant for those with a direct line to the Oval Office.
The White House had been maintaining a stringent front against the notion of a pardon, with press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre firmly asserting that Joe Biden wouldn’t grant one to his son, even under the glaring spotlight of inquiries. Yet, as the announcement rolled out, the communication strategy suddenly seemed less like a well-crafted wall of denial and more like an empty promise made just to hold off the buzz until it was too late.
In case anyone had forgotten, Joe Biden himself claimed less than a year ago that he wouldn’t be granting a pardon to Hunter. It turns out those “no’s” from the White House were as reliable as a weather forecast in the middle of hurricane season. The contradiction in Biden’s past statements and present actions could prompt a game of “spot the lie,” but who’s counting when the paintbrush of punditry has already covered the walls.
Joe Biden is Disgusting, worst President in our history. What a chunk of septic tank scum!
Breitbart Editor-in-Chief Alex Marlow Warned Biden Would Pardon Son Hunter Despite Mass Media Denialhttps://t.co/RbBqsrFziC

Marlow’s early warnings about Hunter’s pardon were not merely speculative; they indicated a keen insight into the machinations of a familial pardon machine operating within the walls of the White House. He advised Republicans to jump off the fence and support impeachment proceedings, hinting that this was not just a symbolic game but a matter of principle against a backdrop of blatant favoritism. Meanwhile, Hunter Biden seemed to be living in an alternate universe, where being the son of the President absolved him of the consequences most Americans would face for similar infractions.
As predictions of Joe Biden’s shield over Hunter become reality, questions abound about the integrity of judicial processes when political connections are involved. Will this pave the way for a new standard in American politics? If so, then buckle up; the ride is sure to be an interesting one. In the end, the headlines may walk hand-in-hand with hypocrisy, but for the Biden family, it’s just another day at the office—one where the rules appear to be written based on who the last name is.
