"The Constitution provides the President with broad authority to grant reprieves and pardons for offenses against the United States, but nowhere does the Constitution give the President the authority to rewrite history."
Special Counsel David Weiss on Monday blasted President Joe Biden in the final report on his investigation into first son Hunter Biden, over accusations that the first son's criminal cases were politically motivated and confirmed Hunter Biden capitalized on his family name to secure lucrative deals.
The report, which was reviewed by Just The News, slammed the president for accusing prosecutors of being political when he pardoned his son.
Weiss has denied allegations that the prosecution was politically motivated, arguing that multiple judges have ruled that the prosecution was not vindictive, after attorneys for the younger Biden made the same argument in legal filings.
"Calling those rulings into question and injecting partisanship into the independent administration of the law undermines the very foundation of what makes America's justice system fair and equitable," Weiss wrote. "It erodes public confidence in an institution that is essential to preserving the rule of law."
The president previously claimed people are not usually prosecuted for falsely filing out a gun form without aggravating factors, or for being late in filing taxes because of addiction when they've paid all the fees back with interest and other penalties.
"Those who were late paying their taxes because of serious addictions, but paid them back subsequently with interest and penalties, are typically given non-criminal resolutions," the president said at the time. "It is clear that Hunter was treated differently."
Weiss said the president's accusations do not just harm prosecutors, but also the Justice Department and other public servants.
"Politicians who attack the decisions of career prosecutors as politically motivated when they disagree with the outcome of a case undermine the public's confidence in our criminal justice system," Weiss wrote. "The President's statements unfairly impugn the integrity not only of Department of Justice personnel, but all of the public servants making these difficult decisions in good faith."
Weiss also posited that Hunter Biden took advantage of his last name while Joe Biden was vice president in order to secure lucrative business opportunities, and willfully chose not to pay over $1.4 million in taxes, despite making more than $7 million between 2016 and 2020.
"Mr. Biden made this money by using his last name and connections to secure lucrative business opportunities, such as a board seat at a Ukrainian industrial conglomerate, Burisma Holdings Limited, and a joint venture with individuals associated with a Chinese energy conglomerate," Weiss wrote.
The special counsel added that the money was earned while doing "limited work."
The admission from Weiss comes after Republicans have long accused Hunter Biden of taking advantage of his last name in order to secure high-paying jobs.
Weiss further accused President Biden of attempting to "rewrite history."
"The Constitution provides the President with broad authority to grant reprieves and pardons for offenses against the United
States, but nowhere does the Constitution give the President the authority to rewrite history," he wrote.
The release comes as Special Counsel Jack Smith is expected to release his investigation into President-elect Donald Trump. Federal Florida Judge Aileen Cannon ruled on Monday that she would not block Smith's release.
Yup, we told y'all: The Bidens are corrupt. Now predictably and laughably, USMB leftists will start screeching "TRUMP!! TROOOOOMP!!!"
Just acknowledge your were wrong and shut up. Actually, since you never acknowledge you're wrong, just shut up.
