MODERATORS
Must be awesome to have a powerful dad, get a super high paying job in Ukraine, smoke crack, shoot guns, drive around recklessly with guns and crack then get pardoned. Then have liberals insist it had nothing to do with the current war and that the US isn't the most corrupt country on earth.
"As a Biden voter this is so fucking stupid. THIS is where we use the Republican’s moves against them? For his dickhead kid!? Not for the Supreme Court or pushing legislation through? Fuck, man.
Giving credence to their “Biden is corrupt” mantra and that both sides do it for their voters while solving nothing for common Americans at this really crucial time. It’s so insulting and such a bad move."
- the one non-shit comment in r/poltics about this
How many downvotes does it have?
This is the second funniest thing he could have done on his way out and the third one already happened (welcoming Trump to the white house and posing with him). Let's hope for a hat trick!
Is the first one releasing the Epstein files?
he could die, initiating the prophecy of the Year of Four Presidents and making kamala the 47th president

Real talk though, how is the ability to pardon anyone and everyone not the most “authoritarian” 
action a president can take
But we have democracy!!!!!!
Death to America
I mean in genealogy of morals Nietzsche makes it clear mercy is the mark of power
This self-overcoming of justice: one knows the beautiful name it has given itself – mercy; it goes without saying that mercy remains the privilege of the most powerful man, or better, his – beyond the law.
It's literally the dialectical self overcoming of justice (sich selbstaufhebung).

This is the day that Biden became presidential
I will not pardon Hunter
I mean it was clear that he would do this the moment that Trump won, and honestly helping his son like a normal person is like the only human thing I've seen this ghoul do.
I have no sympathy for powerful ghouls who abuse their power only to help their own.
I don’t care how “human” it makes him.

Don't vote for any Democrat in 2028 who doesn't repudiate Nate Silver within 48 hours
This is an appropriate litmus test, but genocide is just being "childish" "entitled" and "priveleged"

Remember when he wen to court and libs were like "He'll go through the process, no special treatment"
Now they're like "Well Trump and Trump but Trump trumped trump trump"
even dark brandon said he would never pardon

well we certainly can't have anyone well-connected facing real consequences for their actions. that's not what this country is about
To think Trump came really close and now they're like "lol nope" and Biden is probably going to pardon him anyway. Same shit with Biden's failson, but yeah man, tell me about democracy and all that sounds lovely.
Is hiring hunter best return on investment in history?
Ukraine got like 150 billion out of it
And 150k less unemployed people!
Biden definitely thought the cancer took the wrong one, at least once. You know he has.
Boromir would have snorted all of coke!
Edit: Beauromir. 
Joe doesn’t remember how Beau died, just that he was The Other Biden 
Didn't he try and claim he was killed in Iraq or something like that?
Edit: Found it about 50 seconds in he claims he lost his son in Iraq lmao

A great day for failsons everywhere
I guess I can stop being surprised Biden hasn't pardoned Hunter. I just expect this level of corruption from government officials and it's nice to be proven right
When will Ranger Biden and Beastmaster Biden be pardoned
I AM SUPREME MAGUS BIDEN 
THEY HAVE ALREADY BEEN PARDONED AND SENT TO THE GRAN CRYSTAL PALAIS IN THE OVERREALM
I know the Supreme Court can't block a presidential pardon, but it'd pretty funny if they did it anyway.
no more half measures walter
the one time he finally decides to do something cool with the last few months in office, out of all the cool things he could have done, he does this?

Biden can't do anything good, but he'll sure pardon his son!
Oh thank god. America’s precious son Hunter is safe
He’s gonna pardon Trump I bet
that would be the funniest possible option, let me on the lathe
I-uh uh I love you, uh, Fat, er, I mean Drumpf, so I hereby pardon you of your murder, you killed your wife, right? 
Thanks Crooked Joe for the pardon, y'know I never liked you, you're such a sucker, I totally fucked you over and you're too stupid to realize that, folks, he's a real loser. LOSER. 
Uh t-thanks Drumpf and God Bless Israel.

this is to funny to me
fuck him, but this is probably the closest thing to human biden has ever done
At least we get more Hunter Biden headlines
and here i thought that obama was the most narcissistic president
third most narcissistic out of the last 3
see, i think there's something much more insidious in obama and biden's facade of public service and respectability. trump's general proposition is "trump good." that's all on the surface with him. he's telling you that. i think you have to be much much more of a narcissist to convince yourself that your own personal apotheosis constitutes an emancipatory movement unto itself.
