Biden's Hunter faces harsh criticism in Weiss' final report.

Special Counsel David Weiss criticized President Biden in his report on the investigation into Hunter Biden, stating that the commander-in-chief's portrayal of the probe was incorrect and unjustly tarnished Justice Department officials. Additionally, Weiss acknowledged that the presidential pardon made it inappropriate for him to discuss whether any additional charges against the first son were justified.

Weiss's final report on Hunter Biden was obtained by Planet Chronicle Digital following his years-long investigation.

The Justice Department transmitted the report to Congress on Monday evening.

In his report, Weiss criticized President Biden for pardoning his son on Dec. 1, 2024, for nearly eleven years of conduct, including both convictions obtained by the special counsel.

Special Counsel David Weiss' investigation led to Hunter Biden being convicted of three felony firearm offenses, and he also pleaded guilty to federal tax crimes for failing to pay at least $1.4 million in taxes.

President Biden pardoned his son on all charges, sparing him from serving up to 17 years behind bars.

In the report, Weiss criticized both the president's decision to pardon and the press release that portrayed the prosecution of his son as "selective," "unfair," "infected by raw politics," and a "miscarriage of justice."

"In his report, Weiss wrote that the statement made by the president was unnecessary and incorrect. While other presidents have pardoned family members, none have used the opportunity to criticize the Department of Justice officials based on unfounded accusations."

Judge Mark C. Scarsi stated that while the Constitution grants the President broad authority to grant reprieves and pardons for offenses against the United States, U.S. Const. art. II, § 2, cl. 1, it does not give the President the authority to rewrite history.

"Weiss stated in his report that the prosecutions were the result of thorough, impartial investigations and not influenced by partisan politics. He also mentioned that eight judges across various courts have rejected claims that they were the result of selective or vindictive motives."

Weiss stated that challenging the impartiality of legal rulings and introducing political bias into the administration of justice weakens the principles of fairness and equality in America's legal system. This erodes public trust in an institution that is crucial for upholding the rule of law.

In the report, Weiss stated that due to the presidential pardon, he is unable to make any further charging decisions and it would be inappropriate to discuss whether additional charges are justified.

"Politicians who criticize the decisions of career prosecutors as politically motivated when they disagree with the outcome of a case erode the public's trust in our criminal justice system, according to Weiss. The President's remarks unfairly question the integrity of all public servants who make tough decisions in good faith."

Weiss stated that the President's characterizations about the case were incorrect based on the facts, and on a deeper level, they were fundamentally wrong.

The federal investigation into Hunter Biden began in November 2018.

In 2023, whistleblowers from the IRS, Gary Shapley and Joseph Ziegler, made allegations of politicization in the federal investigation of Hunter Biden to Congress.

The two claimed that political influence had contaminated the prosecutorial decisions in the federal investigation, which was headed by Trump-appointed Delaware U.S. Attorney David Weiss, who they alleged had sought to become a special counsel.

Weiss was appointed as special counsel by Attorney General Merrick Garland to continue the investigation of the first son, which led to federal charges against him in two separate jurisdictions — Delaware and California.

The Justice Department mandates that Weiss must submit any final report to Attorney General Merrick Garland, who has vowed to make as much of it public as possible.

The Justice Department and Special Counsel Weiss’ office declined to comment.

After months of pledging not to pardon his son, President Biden eventually granted him clemency.

The president issued a pardon for any offenses against the U.S. that Hunter Biden may have committed from Jan. 1, 2014, to Dec. 1, 2024.

"Since taking office, I pledged not to interfere with the Justice Department's decision-making, and I have remained true to my word despite witnessing my son being unfairly prosecuted," Biden stated. "Despite my son's five and a half years of sobriety, he has faced relentless attacks and selective prosecution. In an attempt to break Hunter, they have also tried to break me. There is no reason to believe this will stop now. It is time for enough."

Biden stated, 'I hope Americans will comprehend why a father and a president would make this choice.'
