The pardon covers offenses Hunter Biden "has committed or may have committed or taken part in during the period from January 1, 2014 through December 1, 2024."

Nearly all pardons target specific allegations or charges, making Hunter Biden’s unusual. The only other precedent was President Gerald Ford’s highly controversial move in which he pardoned “all offenses against the United States” that Nixon “has committed or may have committed” over the course of his presidency.

In a stunning reversal, President Joe Biden announced Sunday that he pardoned his son Hunter Biden, who was convicted of gun and tax crimes.
