Megyn Kelly cited the loss of her late sister to the opioid crisis in defeating “spoiled brat” Hunter Biden after his father Joe gave him a shocking presidential pardon.
The host of The Megyn Kelly Show spent her Monday show raging at President Biden and lying to the American people for protecting “the Biden crime family” after he let his long-troubled son off the hook.
On Tuesday, Kelly personalized the tragedy she said many families are feeling after losing family members who weren’t able to get the free ride Hunter has.
“Millions of people have this in their families where someone you know and love ended up in the opioid crisis,” she said.
Kelly quoted her older sister Suzanne Crossly, who died two years ago at age 58 after becoming addicted to opioids.
“But my sister actually ended up in the opioid crisis because a doctor told her this thing wouldn’t be addictive, and it was, and the ship never righted.”
Kelly that her own wealth couldn’t save her and that she didn’t have a “presidential connection” like Biden to help her after she fell into the grips of addiction.
“She didn’t have the connection she needed… it wasn’t like a massive bank robbery, but once you get that under your belt, you’re done. She just can never get rid of it.”

Kelly added that her sister’s addiction problems kept her from getting a job even after she got clean and sober, so she and no one else “could care about her problems about your problems.”
‘And they want us to feel sorry for this rich, spoiled brat Hunter Biden who has had a lifetime of privileges as the son of a senator, the son of a sitting vice president, the son of a president who had all the advantages and squandered them all after exploring them at the expense of our country, by hand of his father leading the ship.’
She asked, “And now we’re supposed to feel sorry for these two? Well, not me at all.’
Joe Biden’s rationale for the pardon, which will protect Hunter from January 1, 2014 through December 1, 2024, was to protect his son from what he said was selective and unfair prosecution.
“From the day I took office, I said I would not interfere with the Department of Justice’s decision-making, and I have kept my word even as I watched my son be selectively and unjustly prosecuted,” Biden said in a statement. declaration.
“No reasonable person looking at the facts of Hunter’s cases could come to any conclusion other than that Hunter was singled out solely because he is my son – and that is wrong,” he continued.
Hunter was convicted in June of lying on a federal government form to purchase a gun and possessing the firearm while on drugs. In September, he pleaded guilty to nine felony counts of tax evasion.
He faced a prison sentence of 25 years on the weapons charges and 17 years on the tax charges, although it was likely he would have served far less than under federal sentencing guidelines.

Kelly added that her sister’s addiction issues kept her from getting a job even after she got clean and sober, so she and no one else “gives a damn” about the Biden family’s problems.
Now it is guaranteed that Hunter will not spend a day in jail for these crimes.
Critics claimed it was a broadly written pardon an attempt to cover up his actions on the board of the Ukrainian gas company Burisma.
That’s because Hunter joined Burisma’s board in 2014, the very year Biden extended the pardon.
Hunter was paid millions for his role in the company, despite having no background in the gas or energy sectors.
In 2023, DailyMail.com exclusively revealed that the younger Biden helped coordinate a plan with Democratic strategists to “close all cases against the owner of an allegedly corrupt Ukrainian gas company” and “obtain intelligence” on the country’s top prosecutor’s office the country.
The emails support former Ukrainian Attorney General Viktor Shokin’s claims that the First Son and his father, then vice president, conspired to end Shokin’s criminal investigation into Burisma.
Another aspect of the controversy is Biden’s complete reversal on granting a reprieve to his son.
Biden said as recently as June that he would “not pardon” his son, unlike Trump, who has said bluntly that he would pardon the January 6 rioters.
The White House has also repeatedly denied that a pardon would be forthcoming.
Karine Jean-Pierre, Biden’s press secretary, has come under fire from reporters aboard Air Force One since she said several weeks ago that a pardon or clemency for Hunter was out of the question.
Jean-Pierre insisted the president was a truthful man who only came to his decision over the weekend, as he said in his Sunday statement.
“First of all, one of the things the president has always believed in is being fair to the American people,” she said. “That’s something he always really believes in.”
Trump’s immediate response to Biden’s shock move was to suggest he might pardon the remaining people convicted of rioting at the Capitol on January 6, 2021.
“Does Joe’s pardon to Hunter include the J-6 hostages, who have been held captive for years now? What an abuse and miscarriage of justice!’ Trump wrote.
Even other prominent members of Biden’s own party criticized him, including Colorado Governor Jared Polis.
