U.S. Senator Katie Britt Releases Statement on President Biden Pardoning Hunter Biden

“Self-serving slap in the face to everyday Americans”

WASHINGTON, D.C., December 2, 2024 – U.S. Senator Katie Britt (R-Ala.) released the following statement following President Joe Biden’s pardon of his son, Hunter Biden:

“This is yet another blatant broken promise by President Biden and exemplifies why he has been the most unpopular president in modern U.S. history. From concerned parents at school board meetings to President Trump, the Biden Administration has spent four years weaponizing the justice system to target its political adversaries. But President Biden sees one victim of lawfare: his own family. This blanket pardon is a self-serving slap in the face to everyday Americans and is an example of the type of two-tiered justice that the American people are sick of. The incoming Trump Administration has an electoral mandate to get politics out of the DOJ and restore blind justice under the law. President Trump has nominated a cabinet that is eager to fulfill that mandate and transparently deliver the change that hardworking American families want. I look forward to ensuring the Trump Administration can hit the ground running to accomplish these goals. January 20 can’t come soon enough.”
