Analysis by WorldTribune Staff, August 7, 2024 Contract With Our Readers
Joe Biden for months had insisted he was in the Democrat 2024 presidential race to stay.
Biden has also long insisted that he was never remotely involved with nor did he benefit financially from his son Hunter’s network of business ventures with foreign interests that arguably compromised U.S. national security while bringing in millions of dollars to Biden family coffers.
More to the point Biden has publicly vowed he would not pardon his son Hunter Biden for tax and gun-permit crimes.
Over the years, Biden has said many things that were documented false. But can he and his family slide into political oblivion with impunity and enough money to pay the bills?

Following is an Aug. 7 letter to the editor in the Wall Street Journal:
…. We can’t know what President Biden may or may not do in his remaining months in office. But there is one thing that he will certainly do: He will pardon Hunter Biden for the gun-permit crime for which he has been found guilty and for the tax-evasion charges for which he faces trial. The president probably won’t pardon his son until after Election Day, so voters can’t take it out on the Democratic nominee for president.
Yes, Mr. Biden said flatly not long ago that he wouldn’t pardon his son. But the president also said repeatedly, for many months, that he had never discussed Hunter’s foreign business dealings with him, which is demonstrably false. He said a lot of things that weren’t true.
You can count on it: Hunter Biden will be pardoned before Joe Biden leaves office.
