YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Sen. Bernie Sanders warned Sunday that President Biden’s pardoning of scandal-scarred son Hunter could set a “dangerous” precedent — while urging pre-emptive pardons for the likes of Dr. Anthony Fauci.

“We can all understand Biden trying to protect his son and his family,” the 83-year-old pol (I-Vt.) told NBC’s “Meet the Press.” But “I think the precedent being set is kind of a dangerous one.

“It was a very wide-open pardon, which could, under different circumstances, lead to problems in terms of future presidents.”

Biden went back on his word and issued a sweeping pardon Dec. 1 to his disgraced 54-year-old son, who had been set to face sentencing later this month for tax and gun crimes.

Not only did the Democratic prez’s highly controversial pardon cover his convict son’s gun and tax charges, it also shields Hunter against any other “offenses against the United States which he has committed or may have committed or taken part in during the period from January 1, 2014 through December 1, 2024.”
