A spokesman for the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms (CCRKBA) explains why this will leave a stain on the President’s legacy.
Earlier this week, President Joe Biden went against his word to the American people by pardoning his son Hunter Biden from criminal actions over the past decade. And, as expected, the decision has left many up in arms, questioning the very power behind his legacy.
That includes the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms, who were quick to speak up on the matter.
“This pardon is an affront to all the people who have been convicted and or served prison time for falsely filling out the same federal form that Hunter Biden did,” said CCRKBA Chairman Alan Gottlieb. “Especially those who committed a non-violent crime as a young adult and were never told that they lost the right to own a gun and had no intention of lying.
“President Biden lied when he said he would not pardon his son Hunter. To use a famous quote from Biden himself, the President is ‘a lying dog face pony soldier.’”
The group believes that the move “still amounts to a political and legal sucker punch,” and one that could define what remains of Biden’s shattered Presidential legacy.
“Joe Biden’s exercise of his pardon power is an outrage,” Gottlieb said. “He will leave office with his reputation in tatters, and his only lasting legacy will be one of deceit. His history of dishonesty is well established, so not even his most faithful allies will be able to gloss this over in the months and years ahead.
“The man who declared in his pardon message that he has followed a simple principle throughout his career to ‘just tell the American people the truth,’ has shown he’s nothing more than a pathological liar. Hunter Biden’s unconditional pardon is an insult to millions of American gun owners who have endeavored to follow increasingly restrictive gun laws which Joe Biden championed while his son violated them.”
A spokesman for the group joins us now to discuss the situation further.
