Whoopi Goldberg Defends Biden's Pardon for Hunter

During a recent episode of 'The View', Whoopi Goldberg defended President Biden's decision to pardon his son, Hunter Biden, despite previous denials of intent to do so. Goldberg argued that pardoning is a common presidential action, citing past pardons by Donald Trump, and emphasized that Hunter's addiction should be considered in the context of his crimes. Co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin criticized Biden for what she perceived as dishonesty regarding the pardon, highlighting that many Americans face consequences for their actions without the benefit of political connections. Griffin's personal connection to addiction issues added weight to her argument that the powerful often operate under different rules. The discussion reflects ongoing tensions surrounding political accountability and the implications of pardons in the U.S. legal system.
