Jean-Pierre, speaking to reporters on Air Force One, asserted that "no reasonable person" could have arrived at a different conclusion, given the circumstances surrounding the case.
According to Breitbart, Jean-Pierre had previously stated, as recently as November, that the President would not pardon his son. This stance was echoed by Biden himself. However, on Monday, Jean-Pierre shifted her position, arguing that Hunter Biden would not have faced prosecution if he did not bear the presidential surname. She further claimed that he had been "singled out politically."
"The president wrestled with this decision, he made the decision this weekend, and he decided to move forward with pardoning his son," Jean-Pierre stated. This statement sparked a flurry of questions from journalists, who queried whether the Department of Justice was politicized and, if so, whether the President was to blame due to his appointees. Jean-Pierre sidestepped these inquiries, instead emphasizing that President Biden would not call for Attorney General Merrick Garland's resignation over the alleged political targeting of his son.
Jean-Pierre also refuted the notion that Biden agreed with President-elect Donald Trump's claim that the justice system has been weaponized. "He believes in the Department of Justice," she said, while acknowledging that "politics infected the process."

The press secretary also highlighted the collapse of the plea deal negotiated by Hunter Biden's attorneys, which critics lambasted as overly lenient. The judge presiding over the case questioned an immunity clause that would have shielded Hunter Biden from future prosecutions, a clause that had been hidden from the court.
