Stats guru Nate Silver slammed those defending President Joe Biden’s decision to pardon his son, Hunter, saying the “correct behavior” is instead to call it out. The Democratic president on Sunday said he’d signed a pardon for Hunter—who faced potential prison time for felony gun and tax convictions—after repeatedly promising he wouldn’t do so.
