Biden reserves the “Last Grace” for his family!
Moments before the end of his presidency on Monday, Joe Biden granted preemptive pardons to members of his family.
Those pardoned include his brother and sister-in-law, James B. Biden and Sara Jones Biden; sister and husband, Valerie Biden Owens and John T. Owens, and other brother, Francis W. Biden.
In a statement he said that:
My family has been the subject of relentless attacks and threats, motivated solely by a desire to harm me: the worst kind of partisan politics. Unfortunately, I have no reason to believe these attacks will end.
I believe in the rule of law and am optimistic that the strength of our legal institutions will ultimately prevail over politics. But baseless, politically motivated investigations destroy the lives, safety and financial protection of targeted individuals and their families. Even when people have done nothing wrong and are eventually exonerated, just being investigated or prosecuted can irreparably damage their reputations and finances.
For this reason, I avail myself of the constitutional power to pardon James B. Biden, Sara Jones Biden, Valerie Biden Owens, John T. Owens, and Francis W. Biden. The granting of a pardon should not be interpreted as an acknowledgment of having committed a wrongdoing, nor should the acceptance be misconstrued as an admission of guilt for a crime.
In the moments before leaving office he issued a series of pardons to people, such as Fauci, Milley, Cheney, who had clearly acted against President Trump. Last month he pardoned his son Hunter for tax crimes and illegal gun ownership.
Pardoning political friends so easily marks a new level of decadence never before seen in the US. Among other things, Biden had promised that he would never pardon members of his family, when it was believed that Trump would do so for his own at the end of his mandate.
Why did Biden feel the need to grant these pardons anyway? Are they all neat and clean?
