The leftist rush to defend President Joe Biden’s pardon of his own son has not disappointed.

Despite selling Biden as a man of honor and integrity who would never use the power of his position to help his own son avoid the consequences of his actions, the media is now looking for ways to justify the pardon of Hunter Biden.

During a CNN panel on the subject, Scott Jennings went up against some rather interesting mental gymnastics from Leigh McGowan:

“What the other side has been saying for years, what you guys ran on for president, was multiple lies. Eric Holder said it right, I think, he said ‘If Hunter’s name was Joe Smith, this case probably would never even have gone to trial. Right?” McGowan said. “It was always a political witch hunt.”

“But to Scott’s point, I mean, wasn’t it a lie? I mean, you can defend it, but wasn’t it a lie that he was not going to pardon [Hunter]?” host Abby Phillip cut in.

“No! I believe the circumstances have changed. I believe we now have a president coming into office who’s talking about firing squads, who’s talking about running people around the country and making sure that everyone who is his enemy is going to be punished, and Hunter Biden lied about his drug use on a government form when he was buying a gun,” McGowan argued. “And he failed to file and pay taxes when he was a drug addict. He paid back those taxes with interest. Donald Trump himself was indicted for 17 counts of criminal tax fraud, more than Hunter, and he’s going to be the president of the United States.”
