Justice in America is supposed to be blind. At least that’s what we’ve all been taught since grade school. But sometimes, the scales of justice get a little help from friends in high places.
The American people have watched for years as certain political families seem to play by different rules. They’ve seen investigations start and stop. They’ve witnessed carefully crafted narratives pushed by mainstream media. They’ve grown increasingly skeptical of a system that appears to have two sets of standards.
Now, a bombshell report from Special Counsel David Weiss has confirmed what many Americans have long suspected. The 280-page document, released Monday evening, provides a scathing rebuke of President Biden’s unprecedented December 2024 decision to pardon his son Hunter and the justification he used to do it.
The Special Counsel Strikes Back
“Other presidents have pardoned family members, but in doing so, none have taken the occasion as an opportunity to malign the public servants at the Department of Justice based solely on false accusations,” Weiss declared in his report. The special counsel, originally appointed by President Trump in 2018, didn’t mince words. He called Biden’s statements “gratuitous and wrong.”
This marks the first time in American history that a special counsel has directly criticized a sitting president’s pardon explanation. The rebuke is particularly stinging coming from Weiss, who was kept on by the Biden administration specifically to ensure the investigation’s independence – a decision that has now backfired spectacularly.
Follow the Money: From Beijing to DC
The report reveals shocking details about Hunter Biden’s earnings. Between 2016 and 2020, the president’s son raked in more than $7 million. Most of this money came from foreign sources. Chinese Communist Party-backed companies paid millions. Ukrainian energy firms added more. All while Joe Biden served as Vice President.
“Mr. Biden made this money by using his last name and connections to secure lucrative business opportunities,” Weiss wrote. He added that Hunter performed “limited work” for these massive payments. The contrast with the DOJ’s aggressive prosecution of Trump associates couldn’t be more stark.
The Whistleblowers Were Right
IRS agents Gary Shapley and Joseph Ziegler risked their careers in June 2023 to expose the truth. Today, their claims stand vindicated. “We should not have had to risk our careers to end the preferential treatment being given to the President’s son,” they stated after the report’s release.
House Oversight Chairman James Comer put it more bluntly: “Let’s be clear: the Biden DOJ was never going to prosecute the Biden Crime Family.” The whistleblowers’ testimony about obstruction and interference now carries even more weight, especially given their sacrifices to bring these facts to light.
Like Father, Like Son?
President Biden claimed his son was treated unfairly. He suggested the prosecution was politically motivated. Weiss’s report systematically dismantles these claims. Multiple federal judges reviewed the case. None found evidence of selective prosecution.
The special counsel’s message is clear: questioning the integrity of career prosecutors undermines public confidence in our justice system. When that questioning comes from the President himself, the damage runs even deeper – particularly when it’s used to justify protecting family members from the consequences of their actions.
Key Takeaways:
- “No President Has Ever Done This”: Special Counsel calls out Biden for undermining justice system by pardoning his son.
- Weiss exposed the $7 million paid to Hunter for ‘limited work’ from China and Ukraine while Dad was VP.
- Career federal agents risked everything to expose the truth have now been vindicated.
