President Joe Biden Moves to Pardon Son Hunter Biden Just Days Ahead of Sentencing

President Joe Biden got a little emotional when he discussed his son’s soon to be released memoir “Beautiful Things,” which discusses his substance abuse battle.

During an interview with CBS News’ Norah O’Donnell on Sunday, the president said Hunter Biden’s memoir gave him hope that his “boy is back” and that he is “proud of him.”

The memoir is set to be released on April 6. Hunter, 51, opens up about his “descent into substance abuse” struggles with alcohol and his “tortuous path to sobriety.”

“You know, I’ll bet there’s not a family you know that doesn’t have somebody in the family that had a drug problem or an alcohol problem,” the president said.

Biden also told the reporter that his son’s openness on his struggles had a deep impact on him. “The honesty with which he stepped forward and talked about the problem and the hope that it gave me hope reading it,” the former vice president said.

“It was like my boy is back… you know what I mean?” Biden continued as he began to get emotional.

Biden has long acknowledged his son’s struggle and long journey of using drugs but says, “He’s fixed it, he’s worked on it.”

“I’m proud of him,” he said. “I’m proud of my son.”

Hunter has also talked multiple times over the years about his personal life—addiction and the loss of his older brother Beau Biden from brain cancer–and past business dealings. He called his refers to those tough times as a moment of “darkness” and spoke of his father’s unwavering support.

“I was in that tunnel — it’s a never-ending tunnel. You don’t get rid of it. You figure out how to deal with it,” he told The New Yorker.

Hunter does not have an official role at the White House and did not help his father with his presidential campaign.

Gallery Books will publish a book and has released an excerpt: “I come from a family forged by tragedies and bound by a remarkable, unbreakable love.”
