Donald Trump calls President Biden’s decision to pardon his son Hunter a “miscarriage of justice.” Reacting to yesterday’s news in a Truth Social post, the president-elect asked if the pardon includes what he calls the “January 6th hostages who have now been imprisoned for years.” The announcement from the president marked a major reversal from his past comments about his son and his federal gun and tax evasion charges as he had vowed not to extend a pardon to him.
After the announcement, several Republican lawmakers highlighted a post on X from earlier this year in which the president had asserted, “No one is above the law.”
“You’ve been lied to every step of the way by this Administration and the corrupt Biden family. This is just the latest in their long coverup scheme. They never play by the same rules they force on everyone else. Disgraceful,” Rep. Steve Scalise, R-La., declared in response to the old Biden tweet. Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Tx., tweeted, “This aged like fine milk.”
