Transcript Highlights

The following is transcribed from the video audio:

• Look, we are just getting a statement from President Joe Biden
• He’s saying that today he signed a pardon for my son Hunter and he goes through the reasoning why, of course, Hunter is facing a sentencing later this month
• But this is a really a monumental moment for President Biden
• He said several months ago in June, when he was still seeking a reelection that he would not pardon Hunter Biden
• And let’s just read through this statement quickly together
• He said, today I signed a pardon for my son Hunter
• From the day I took office, I said I would not interfere with the Justice Department’s decision making
• And I kept my word, even as I watched my son being selectively and unfairly prosecuted
• So this is a fairly long statement about the four or five paragraphs from President Biden, but really going through why he is making this decision
• He said, no reasonable person who looks at the facts of Hunter’s cases can reach any other conclusion than Hunter was singled out because he is my son and that is wrong
