Hunter Biden says pardon 'not good' for US, speaks on father's cancer battle

Hunter Biden recently addressed the controversial presidential pardon he received from his father, former President Joe Biden, stating in a BBC interview that it was "not good" for the United States, the Constitution, or his father's legacy. While acknowledging the criticism surrounding the 2024 pardon, which covered federal charges including a firearms conviction and a tax case, Hunter expressed gratitude, suggesting his father acted out of parental concern and a desire to protect him from potential future legal scrutiny under a new administration.

During the same interview, Hunter Biden spoke emotionally about his father's ongoing health struggles, revealing that former President Joe Biden's prostate cancer has metastasized to his bones, describing the illness as "very painful" and "debilitating." He conveyed that it was "really sad to watch" his father's condition. Hunter also discussed his own past struggles with addiction and indicated he plans to focus on recovery efforts rather than pursuing a career in elected politics.
