Former Biden White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki made some comments about the possibility of Joe Biden pardoning Hunter have come back to haunt her.
During an episode of her MSNBC show back in June of this year, Psaki talked about how much Joe Biden respects the American justice system.
Surely, he would never abuse the trust of the American people by pardoning his son. Oops.

FLASHBACK: MSNBC’s Jen Psaki gushed that Biden’s pledge to not pardon Hunter showed true character
MSNBC host and former White House press secretary Jen Psaki previously claimed in June that President Biden would not pardon his son because he believed in the American justice system.
“His decision not to pardon his son is not an expression of restraint or removal in any way from what his son has gone through and is continuing to go through, but of principle,” Psaki said on June 16, the same week his son was convicted on federal gun charges and his father reiterated he would not pardon him.
However, on Sunday, Biden announced that he would in fact pardon his son just weeks before he leaves office in January, a complete reversal of his earlier pledge.
“Because the justice system that convicted his only surviving son is the same justice system he vowed to protect,” Psaki continued in the June segment. “If that doesn’t tell you who Joe Biden is, I don’t really know what does.”
“Joe Biden’s character as a public servant is what drove him to make clear that the law applies to everyone,” Psaki said of Biden.

Like most of the people on MSNBC, Jen Psaki is a professional liar. Is there any wonder why the network’s ratings have cratered?
