Trump's criticism, expressed on Sunday night, centered on what he perceives as a stark contrast in the treatment of the January 6th (J6) protesters, who he believes are victims of a "miscarriage of Justice."
"Does the Pardon given by Joe to Hunter include the J-6 Hostages, who have now been imprisoned for years? Such an abuse and miscarriage of Justice!" Trump questioned, as reported by The Post Millennial. This statement was in response to Biden's assertion that "politics" had interfered with justice, leading to a "miscarriage of justice."
Biden's decision to pardon his son, Hunter, came after years of insistence that he would not do so. Hunter Biden, who had previously pleaded guilty to tax evasion charges in September and was convicted on gun charges, was due for sentencing in December. The pardon issued by Biden shields his son from any crimes or potential prosecution over a decade.
Trump, on the other hand, has pledged to pardon all non-violent offenders prosecuted by Biden's Department of Justice for crimes related to the J6 protest. This protest, which took place on January 6, 2020, saw Trump supporters storm the Capitol Building in an attempt to halt the certification of the electoral votes for Joe Biden, thereby confirming him as the 46th president. A significant number of these supporters were subsequently tried for trespassing.

In his pardon statement, Biden maintained, "From the day I took office, I said I would not interfere with the Justice Department's decision-making, and I kept my word even as I have watched my son being selectively, and unfairly, prosecuted." He further added, "Here’s the truth: I believe in the justice system, but as I have wrestled with this, I also believe raw politics has infected this process and it led to a miscarriage of justice – and once I made this decision this weekend, there was no sense in delaying it further. I hope Americans will understand why a father and a President would come to this decision."
TRUMP'S FAMILY CIRCLE LOOKS DIFFERENT THIS TIME AROUND!
Trump's promise to pardon J6 protesters, including grandmothers, first-time offenders, and rioters, has been met with criticism. Some have contrasted this with the lack of prosecution for the Black Lives Matter and Antifa rioters who attempted to set federal buildings ablaze in the summer of 2020 following George Floyd's death in Minneapolis, causing billions of dollars in damage.
