In short:
Outgoing US President Joe Biden has pardoned his son Hunter Biden, saying “raw politics … led to a miscarriage of justice”.
Hunter Biden was convicted of gun charges and tax evasion and was facing sentencing hearings scheduled for mid-December.
Joe Biden said he made the decision over the weekend while spending the Thanksgiving holiday with his family.
You’re right, and often I do, but I just don’t see the point in putting that effort into the US political spectacle. Thanks for the details.
