The White House reaffirmed Friday that President Joe Biden will not pardon first son Hunter Biden if he is convicted on the felony charges filed against him this week.

The younger Biden was indicted on Sept. 14 in a federal court in Delaware on two counts of making false statements on federal forms and one count of unlawful possession of a firearm while addicted to a controlled substance.
