Special Counsel David Weiss blasted Joe Biden in his final report on Hunter Biden.
David Weiss ripped Joe Biden over his decision to pardon Hunter Biden.
Last month Joe Biden issued a full and unconditional pardon to his son, Hunter Biden, absolving him of any federal crimes committed between 2014 and 2024.
Hunter was facing federal tax fraud charges in California and felony gun charges in Delaware stemming from David Weiss’s investigations.
Joe Biden gave his son a blanket pardon after repeatedly claiming he wouldn’t.
In Biden’s statement about his son Hunter’s pardon, he insisted the cases were purely political and attacked the Special Counsel.
Hunter did nothing wrong according to Joe.
“No reasonable person who looks at the facts of Hunter’s cases can reach any other conclusion than Hunter was singled out only because he is my son – and that is wrong. There has been an effort to break Hunter – who has been five and a half years sober, even in the face of unrelenting attacks and selective prosecution. In trying to break Hunter, they’ve tried to break me – and there’s no reason to believe it will stop here. Enough is enough,” Biden said in his statement.
David Weiss defended his investigation and ripped Joe Biden claiming his prosecutions were politically motivated.
“Politicians who attack the decisions of career prosecutors as politically motivated when they disagree with the outcome of a case undermine the public’s confidence in our criminal justice system,” Weiss wrote, according to NBC News. “The President’s statements unfairly impugn the integrity not only of Department of Justice personnel, but all of the public servants making these difficult decisions in good faith.”
NBC News reported:
The Department of Justice on Monday released a final report from the special counsel who charged Hunter Biden with gun and tax crimes before President Joe Biden pardoned his last surviving son.
In the report, Special Counsel David Weiss said that the president could not “rewrite history,” suggesting that Biden’s criticism of the case against his son when announcing his pardon decision had maligned “the public servants at the Department of Justice based solely on false accusations.”
Biden described the prosecution of his son as a “miscarriage of justice” in the official White House statement announcing the pardon, which prosecutors working for Weiss disputed in a later court filing.
