He could have faced prison time, but now, of course, he has been pardoned. So what's the explanation for this? What has President Biden said?

And he says that he kept his word on that, even as his son, he says, was, quote, being selectively and unfairly prosecuted. President Biden says Hunter was charged only after Republicans in Congress. He says instigated the prosecutions to try to hurt the president politically.
