Special Counsel David Weiss, who investigated President Joe Biden’s son Hunter, issued his final report Monday, Jan. 13. In the 280-page report, Weiss criticized the president for making “gratuitous and wrong” accusations that politics tainted his years-long case.
Weiss charged Hunter Biden with tax and gun crimes, but the president pardoned his son this past fall.
Weiss pointed to Joe Biden’s words when pardoning Hunter, claiming Hunter was the victim of an “unfair” prosecution and a “miscarriage of justice.”
He said while other presidents have pardoned family members in the past, none have “taken the occasion as an opportunity to malign the public services at the Department of Justice based solely on false accusations.”
Weiss said he ignored political opinions during his investigation and that his decisions were “based on the facts and the law and nothing else.”
