In an unexpected turn of events, GOP presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy has ignited a buzz within political circles by revealing his contemplation of issuing a series of pardons should he secure the presidency, with an eventual prospect of extending pardons to members of the Biden family.
At the heart of Ramaswamy’s ambitious plan is his vision for national revival over division, symbolizing his aspiration for a united America. The 38-year-old biotech millionaire envisions a future where political motives no longer impede justice, aiming to provide relief to those he believes have suffered from politically motivated persecution, including individuals associated with the January 6 protests and former President Donald Trump.
In an exclusive interview with The Post, Ramaswamy shared, “After the I am leading the great revival. After we have shut down the FBI, after we have refurbished the Department of Justice, after we have systemically pardoned anyone who was a victim of a political motivated persecution — from Donald Trump and peaceful January 6 protests — then would I would be open to evaluating pardons for members of the Biden family in the interest of moving the nation forward.”
Ramaswamy is advocating for a comprehensive transformation of the justice system, which he believes will contribute to the nation’s revitalization rather than its division. He sees this bold pardon proposition as an integral part of his broader vision for an American resurgence.
This stance is not entirely new for Ramaswamy, who had previously advocated for a special counsel to investigate the Biden family’s activities. He asserts, “I am calling for a special counsel to investigate and publish all findings relating to Hunter Biden and Biden-family business dealings.” His persistence in this matter is rooted in his belief in the necessity of a balanced justice system.
Ramaswamy’s plea for a special counsel is aligned with his conviction that both sides of the political spectrum should be held accountable. He emphasized the importance of avoiding a two-tiered justice system, asserting, “There cannot be a two-tiered justice system in this country. If there is going to be a Trump-related special counsel, there must be a Biden-related special counsel.”
The whirlwind of attention around this proposal has also put the spotlight on Hunter Biden’s legal situation. After a prolonged six-year investigation by the Department of Justice, Hunter Biden faced minimal consequences as he agreed to plead guilty to two misdemeanor charges related to tax evasion. Ramaswamy’s stand, however, remains firm as he continues to champion the call for an impartial inquiry into Biden family matters.
As the 2024 election landscape evolves, Ramaswamy’s striking stance on pardons and special counsel investigations has undoubtedly ignited spirited conversations within the Republican party. While his ideas may be bold and ambitious, their ultimate impact on the GOP race remains to be seen.
