Biden White House Isn’t Blaming Trump for His Pardon of Hunter. It’s Blaming This Guy Instead

Robert Spencer

So there you have it: don’t blame Old Joe for pardoning his son and reinforcing the idea that there is a two-tier justice system in America, one for leftists and one for patriots. It’s not Biden’s fault, it’s James Clyburn’s. Feel better now?


"Old Joe Biden is deeply proud of being a member of the Biden clan, as he has made clear on numerous occasions when he has guaranteed the veracity of some statement (usually a whopping lie) by following it up with “My word as a Biden.” In reality, however, being a Biden has come to mean the total evasion of responsibility, and the determination to blame someone else for one’s failures when not denying outright that they were failures at all. This is, actually, a general tendency on the left. On Friday, Biden’s chief propagandist, Karine Jean-Pierre, found a new person to blame for the pardon Old Joe just gave to his son and bag man, Hunter Biden.

"Oddly enough, Jean-Pierre did not blame the man whom the left regards as the focus of evil in the modern world, Donald Trump, for the Hunter pardon. Would that have been too much of a stretch even for the dwindling number of true-believing Bidenites to accept? Instead, she blamed Rep. James Clyburn (D-Trump Is Hitler). What Clyburn has done to offend the Biden crime family remains a mystery, but the New York Post reported that Jean-Pierre claimed that Old Joe had a hard time making up his mind about whether or not to pardon Hunter, and that it was Clyburn who pushed The Big Guy over the edge into naked, gleeful, my-family-is-above-the-law corruption.

"Jean-Pierre couched it all, of course, in soothing rhetoric about what a devoted family man the senescent corruptocrat in the Oval Office is, and how his corrupt decision grew out of that devotion: “You heard this president say this many times before, he believes when it comes to his family, when it comes to how he moves forward, about thinking about his family, they’re the beginning, the middle and the end. And he wrestled with this. It was not an easy thing for him to decide.”

"Enter Clyburn. Jean-Pierre recounted that a couple of weeks ago, the viciously partisan representative appealed to Old Joe on Hunter’s behalf, urging him to break his repeated promise not to pardon Hunter: “This is Clyburn’s words: ‘The president was reticent’ when he tried to encourage him to pardon Hunter.… I think that’s important to note.” . . .

Joe Biden Just Got Some Devastating News About His Legacy    "Joe Biden has long considered himself a successful and consequential president. He boasts about creating jobs that he didn’t actually create, claiming credit for more job growth than any president in history, despite most of those jobs simply returning after the COVID shutdowns. He presents himself as the leader who ended the war in Afghanistan, conveniently overlooking the disastrous withdrawal that allowed the Taliban to reclaim control. 

"Perhaps most of all, he views himself as the only Democrat capable of defeating Trump — even if the circumstances surrounding that victory remain questionable. However, regardless of how Biden perceives his legacy, voters have a very different view of him and his presidency." . . .

Poll: Americans think Biden was a terrible president  Who wouldn't?

. . ."Biden is unique in that he deliberately created the circumstances that made his presidency so disastrous. It was his affirmative, proudly touted policies that drove inflation, opened the border, and led to so much American weakness on the world stage that two potential “WWIII starting points” erupted. It was his values, his weaknesses, his corruption, and his senility that got moved events.

"I sincerely hope that history is incredibly cruel to Biden. He will have left the White House 50 years after setting his sights on it, but I want his legacy to be tarnished in his own mind. Anyone who has wreaked such terrible havoc on this once proud nation deserves to be horribly aware of the disdain in which his countrymen hold him."

The Much Awaited End of KJP   . . ."In the view of many observers, the daily double-talk from the White House podium by KJP came on like a come-on from a carnival barker: instead of presenting straightforward, unvarnished truths from the briefing room lectern, listeners were subjected to a daily diet of kaleidoscope logic.

"The main reason her versions of events worked for as long as they did was that the briefing room was populated by a band of willing accomplices, happily lapping up the White House spokesperson’s blather.  Based on years of softball questions that the White House legacy media corps put forth, it was apparent that the majority of the reporters were content to run with KJP’s falsehoods in order to maintain their access to “unnamed, high level Administration sources.” . . .
