Donald Trump Jr. ripped into President Joe Biden on Friday for issuing a pardon to a Chinese national who pleaded guilty to possessing tens of thousands of images of child pornography.
On Thursday, Biden issued an executive grant of clemency to Shanlin Jin, a Chinese national who pleaded guilty to possessing 47,000 images of child pornography on his computer. He was arrested in January of 2021 while studying for a Ph.D. at Southern Methodist University in Texas.
"Why on earth would Joe Biden commute/pardon a Chinese national in jail for possessing 47,000 child porn images? Oh, unless the Chinese Communist Party has a lot more info on the Biden crime family?!? There's so much more to this that needs to come out," the president-Elect's son posted on X.
According to local police investigators, an internet protocol address linked to Jin's residence had used a peer-to-peer network to share a video of "sexual assault of an infant by an adult male" along with other child porn.
Sin was sentenced to eight years in prison in 2022. Trump Jr. has implied that the commutation was linked to Biden's alleged connection to high-ranking Chinese government officials. Court records showed that an agent testified that Jin's family was connected to "influential members of the Communist Party in China."
China hailed the released of their countryman in an official response. "This once again demonstrates that China will never abandon its compatriots under any circumstances, and the motherland will always be their strong support," said foreign ministry spokesperson Mao Ning.
In November of 2023, House Committee on Oversight and Accountability Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., alleged that President Biden received $40,000 in laundered Chinese money from the account of his brother, James Biden, and his sister-in-law, Sara Biden, in the form of a personal check. In July of 2017, Hunter Biden sent a message to Raymond Zhao — a CEFC associate — demanding a $10 million capital payment and claimed his father, Joe Biden, was sitting in the room, according to Comer's investigation.
As his half-century long career in politics winds to a close, Biden has chosen to use what's left of his presidential power to commute the sentences of hundreds of people. On Thursday, Biden issued commuted sentences to roughly 1,500 convicted felons and full pardons to 39 U.S. citizens convicted of nonviolent crimes.
