The White House isn't ruling out a potential commutation for Hunter Biden, the president’s son who was convicted on three federal gun crimes.
This position is a shift from what it said in September, when Jean-Pierre was asked whether the president would “pardon or commute his son and She said no.”
Hunter Biden was convicted of lying on a mandatory gun purchase form by saying he was not illegally using or addicted to drugs, and illegally having the gun for 11 days.
The three counts carry up to 25 years in prison. But whether the president’s son actually serves any time behind bars will be up to U.S. District Judge Maryellen Noreika.
