Former President Joe Biden "truly changed his mind" on pardoning his son Hunter — who was convicted on federal gun and tax charges in 2024 — according to former first lady Jill Biden.
Shortly after Hunter's conviction, President Biden publicly said "I will not pardon him" and then-White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre repeatedly told the press that a pardon or commutation was off the table. But in the final weeks of his presidency, Biden signed a full and unconditional pardon for his son.
On NPR's Newsmakers video podcast, Jill Biden told All Things Considered Host Scott Detrow that then-candidate Donald Trump's rhetoric about Hunter's criminal cases eventually led her husband to change his mind and pardon their son, who faced prison time.

“On NPR’s Newsmakers video podcast, Jill Biden told All Things Considered Host Scott Detrow that then-candidate Donald Trump’s rhetoric about Hunter’s criminal cases eventually led her husband to change his mind and pardon their son, who faced prison time.” Were you and Joe afraid of something Jill?
How can we miss them if they won’t go away???
Gropin’ Joe should tell the story himself - not some secondhand account from the help.
‘Were you and Joe afraid of something Jill?’
Most likely.
“So I just decided to do it”, said Jill.
So because orange man bad said some things many others were saying (and worse) thats the excuse they offer up for pardoning their son.
Sure. We all believe this whole story. Massive crock of crap.
One of the few pardons he signed himself rather than having the White House staff feed it through the autopen without having to wake him like the rest of the pardons.
I’ve got a bridge to sell you. It’s well built, and it’s in Brooklyn.
This woman is an even bigger liar than HRC & that is saying something.
Well... duh.
Joe’s mind was so lost, that he couldn’t find it to change if he wanted to.
Give her a break. They need money since the bribes and assorted grifts dried up. Let her pimp her book in peace
Joe cannot tell the story, he was "not there".
You can be assured, however, that Jill had a firm grip on the autopen the minute Joe fell asleep or was incoherent, that the power the pen gave her included protecting her family was uppermost on her mind.
I’m sure he did. And I’m sure you claim it’s on Trump. A complete assessment of the Biden Cabal.
Presidential children are virtually untouchable for the simple that is called retribution.
There is no statute of limitation on retribution and when a President is sick on his death bed, his agony can be enhanced by retribution against his kids
Are these the only choices?
A. Michelle Obama’s constant complaining about her life and marriage.
B. “Dr.” Jill’s constant explaining about her life and marriage.
**If either First Lady was a piece of laundry, she would be set on a Rinse Cycle that Never Seems to End!!
Is there no retreat, no ‘farm’ to send them to?
“...changed his mind...”
When you pull the strings of a puppet, it’s not hard to do. She was running the country to the ground, the last three years of the coup. Her and the other puppet master should have been executed for stealing the election from the rightful winner Donald J Trump. But the day is still young.
