Joe defended the pardons claiming his family had been subjected to "unrelenting attacks and threats" motivated by partisan politics. However, critics argue that the pardons serve as a tacit admission of wrongdoing, particularly given the Supreme Court's longstanding position that accepting a pardon implies an acknowledgment of guilt.
So this seems to set the precedent that prosecution or expected prosecutions motivated by partisan politics is reason for pre emptive pardons. In other words, all prosecutions of a president and a president's family since there are always motivations because of partisan politics with any president.
Now Trump can do the same with his family, exactly why democrats hated the idea of pre emptive pardons when Trump was considering them in his first term. Biden paved the way for Trump to do the same.

Kinzinger and Schiff have both claimed in the past that accepting a presidential pardon would amount to an admission of guilt, but both have been quiet after receiving their own preemptive pardons. Just two weeks ago, Kinzinger said on CNN that he didn’t want a pardon because “the second you take a pardon, it looks like you’re guilty of something.”
Biden has now preemptively pardoned his son, Hunter, his brothers and sister and their spouses, and political allies who investigated Trump. The pardons come years after Biden himself suggested such pardons were something he would never grant.
“Now in terms of the pardons, you’re not going to see in our administration that kind of approach to pardons,” Biden told CNN in 2020.

First, a presidential pardon only wipes the slate clean for federal crimes—it offers no shield against state or local charges. This gap in protection is precisely how Donald Trump found himself entangled in criminal cases across four jurisdictions: New York, Georgia, Florida, and the District of Columbia. Each of these jurisdictions operates independently beyond the reach of presidential clemency, underscoring the limits of federal immunity.
Secondly, presidential pardons leave the door open to civil penalties. Federal or state governments, as well as private parties, can pursue restitution or damages through civil courts, even in the absence of criminal penalties. Individuals who receive pardons may still face a range of lawsuits and financial claims, including those initiated by the federal government.

Even James Carville threw Biden under the bus for the corrupt pre emptive pardons.

Democrats like sonhouse will defend the pardons on this forum, but behind closed doors they are ashamed of Biden for the pre emptive pardons because they know it is an abuse of power. They said so.

The pardons were absolutely necessary.

“The president’s reportedly asking his staff whether he can issue pre-emptive pardons for himself, his family members, Rudy Giuliani,” Schumer said in 2020 in prepared remarks on the Senate floor. “There’s a simple answer: No. No, Mr. President, that would be a gross abuse of the presidential pardon authority.”
“But I have a more important question: Just how long are our Republican colleagues going to indulge the president in this nonsense?” Schumer continued.

A very true statement…only it is biden and the democrats that did this.
ITS OVER HUN…DEAL WITH IT!
Maybe you should follow raskin and get some mental help.
@Cliff-Mashburn saidWhen you say "phony LLCs" are you referring to shell corporations?
All of Biden's 20 or so extended family members are millionaires with dozens of phony LLC's in their names. They have been used for nothing but funneling money from Joe. This has been going on for FIFTY YEARS, so of course Joe had to grant them immunity.
@Mott-The-Hoople saidStill sticking to the idea that the DoJ was "weaponized" under Biden? What a fool.

I already told you after the election, NOW we'll see what weaponization of federal agencies actually looks like.

@Mott-The-Hoople saidHunter was given a pre emptive pardon for a reason alright. He is linked to fraud in multiple ways. Joe pardoned other family members too. It really does look like it is a crime family.

Not that I don't think Trump pardoning Charles Kushner is any better though. And it is fair to ask why Saudi Arabia paid Jared money. It looks like they are all corrupt. Doesn't matter which party. I don't like the Kushners.
The post that was quoted here has been removedNecessary to avoid being held accountable for crimes. That is what Chuck Schumer said when he thought Trump might do that. Lots of democrats said that until Biden did it. Now you don't want to talk about it.
Biden screwed up & admitted he’s complicit in war crimes.
https://www.bitchute.com/video/vIMooK03Wis
Biden's admitted definition of a war crime means Obama was committing war crimes with his drone strikes.
https://harvardpolitics.com/obama-war-criminal/
Biden's dementia is the gift that keeps giving. He admits to everybody's war crimes without knowing it. Let him keep talking. Give that man a mic.
