Well, the fallout continues from Joe Biden, pardoning his own son for pretty much every crime for a decade, those that have been charged and those that remain uncharged. We'll get to that in a moment first. If you haven't heard, DailyWire Plus is 50% off right now. It is our best deal of the year. That is one full year of uncensored shows, exclusive series, documentaries, and more. Do not wait. The deal ends soon. Head on over to DailyWire.com slash cyberweek and join the fight today. All right. So, as we know on Sunday evening, President Joe Biden decided

0:26.8

to give a blanket pardon to his son Hunter for any and all activities. There's a scene in the

0:32.1

three musketeers in which the Cardinal Richelieu decides that he is going to give one of his henchmen a prospective

0:38.9

pardon for anything that he or she is going to do at any point. The note says the bearer has done

0:45.3

what has been done. That's essentially what Joe Biden did with his son Hunter. He essentially wrote

0:50.3

him a pardon brief that allowed him any crime for about a decade, which is an amazingly

0:56.0

broad pardon. In fact, it's almost unprecedented in American history. The only precedent that

1:00.4

anybody can find, that is, this broad, is the Gerald Ford pardon of Richard Nixon, which was

1:05.1

specifically designed to basically quiet any and all problems surrounding Watergate and any sort of ancillary legal issues

1:12.2

that would have arisen therefrom with regard to Richard Nixon. The goal was get that off the

1:15.8

American people's table and let them move on to the next thing. That is not true with regard to

1:20.3

Hunter Biden. This is the president of the United States pardoning his son for any and all crimes,

1:25.9

including those that were never charged. Now, why is he doing that?

1:28.9

He is doing that because he believes that the incoming Trump DOJ is going to look into Hunter Biden's

1:34.8

financial improprieties. We're going to look into the Biden family corruption. And so it's not just

1:40.4

about Hunter. It really is about Joe. In fact, you could say that the Richard Nixon precedent is maybe the best precedent here, because really what is Joe Biden doing here? He's attempting to pardon himself. He can't pardon himself because he hasn't been charged with any crimes, and he wants to pretend that he's not guilty of any crimes. What he's really doing here is he is getting Hunter off the table to get himself off the table. That is the goal. I mean, there's really no other way to explain this. According to Margaret Love, U.S. Pardon attorney from 1990 to 1997. This is very broad. She called it unprecedented except for the Richard Nixon pardon. She says, quote, it does not pardon specific offenses, but rather takes a rather broad time span and pardons anything, any crime that may have been committed during that

2:17.6

time span. Mark Osler, professor of law at University of St. Thomas, said, quote, this is very unusual.

2:23.4

It's unusual enough to grant clemency in a case where there hasn't yet been a conviction.

2:26.6

It's rare still to have the breadth of this one. And that's right. I mean, this is an insanely broad

2:31.8

pardon. And it's meant to cover everything from violations

2:35.2

of the Foreign Agent Registration Act to further tax crimes to the possibility of bribery. It's meant

2:41.3

to cover pretty much everything for a decade-long period. Now, Joe Biden is not answering questions
