The Hunter Biden debacle continues, and many Democrats are having a real hard time coming to grips with it. Many are even lambasting the President for his decision. But why?
I’ll tell you this, it’s not because it’s violating their shared sense of justice. It’s not a rejection of nepotism. And It’s not because Biden repeatedly lied about his decision to pardon Hunter. It’s because they see it as something that benefits Donald Trump.
In essence, they fear the old adage, “What goes around comes around.”
There’s been so much backlash from former DOJ and FBI officials throughout the entire Hunter Biden episode, and at almost every turn Democrats did backflips and somersaults to suck the air out of the story and keep it off the front page. Now, the full extent of their actions may surface.
You hear democrats listing their “concerns” for the incoming Trump administration and its plans to thwart the American judicial system. To me, this just points to the fact that they have something to hide.
They are shaking in their boots over the potential Kash Patel appointment to FBI Director because the pardon gives him a huge reason to make all the public records available to show just how much work went into the deflection and protection of President Biden’s son. Without the pardon, you could’ve let sleeping dogs lie in jail.
The DNC clearly has a lot of heartburn right now, and there’ll be a lot of resigning and seeing folks run for the hills.
In matters like these—it doesn’t matter if we’re on the city, state, or federal level. Whenever you see people trying to dodge hard lines of questions, it’s a clear sign of a cover-up. Where there’s smoke, there’s fire. And there’s smoke a-plenty coming from the DOJ and DNC right now.
But the funny thing is that these Democrats are so scared of Trump’s so-called disruptors he’s bringing into his administration, and they’re making accusations before they’ve even had a chance to do anything. But they also don’t understand that they can’t just immediately shake things up upon arrival. I’ve worked within and on the outskirts of these bureaucracies for 40 years. I can tell you that they don't move very fast and they're not easily influenced—especially if your ideology contrasts that of the existing bureaucracy.
Now the Dems are gearing up for a battle, but I see it as nothing but political posturing. They’re trying to deflect and deny everything while blaming Trump as some boogeyman who is on his way to raise as much hell as possible come January 20th.
In this case, they’re making Trump out to be some maniacal, vindictive villain when really all he can do is release internal documents and look at the emails. Then the courts can decide whether or not there was foul play as they find out who did what. And if folks are stupid enough to have done what I think they did, they’ll be called to account for their actions.
It’ll be interesting to see this play out and what I think will be the big reveal of the cover-up. That’s human nature for you.
My last thoughts are that—regardless of what the Biden administration and the left might say—a pardon is an act of grace that exempts the individual on whom it is bestowed from the punishment of the law inflicted for a crime he has committed. I don’t want us to misconstrue what happened here.
That’s what a pardon is. And here’s what a pardon is not. A pardon is not an expungement of guilt or a nullification of a judgment of conviction. The pardon also does not erase a judgment of conviction or its underlying legal and factual findings. In other words, your criminal record remains intact. Hunter just won't face any penalties, including prison time, but he is still in the wrong. It’s interesting because those on Biden’s side are asking for a whole lot in trying to get the indictment dismissed on the grounds of selective prosecution. But it's good to see that the special counsel is stepping up and saying no to the court. It wouldn’t be right and there’s no legal precedent.
