First lady Jill Biden expressed her full backing of her husband’s decision to grant a pardon to their son, Hunter Biden, on Monday, stating that she, “of course,” supports the action.
While revealing the White House’s holiday decorations, Jill Biden told the press, “Of course I support the pardon of my son.”
President Joe Biden, 82, made the announcement of Hunter’s pardon on Sunday evening, asserting that his son had been “selectively, and unfairly, prosecuted”—a claim that remains controversial, particularly considering the leadership of his own appointed Justice Department officials.
Earlier this year, in June, a Delaware jury found Hunter Biden guilty of three gun-related felonies, and in September, he admitted to evading taxes on $1.4 million in foreign income.

The First Lady’s relationship with Hunter Biden has been complicated and strained, given his troubled past.
Since the announcement on Sunday, President Biden has faced widespread backlash, with critics accusing him of political favoritism.
In messages from his abandoned laptop, Hunter, 54, had harshly insulted Jill Biden, calling her a “vindictive moron.”
The decision to pardon Hunter has sparked outrage from some Democrats and clemency advocates who argue that it reflects an unfair double standard. IRS whistleblowers have suggested that Hunter received preferential treatment, while defense lawyers have lamented the more severe punishments their clients face.
