The chief propagandist at the White House is now changing her tune and claiming that “no reasonable person” would disagree that Hunter Biden deserved a pardon from daddy Joe.
This comes after she lied over and over claiming that Joe would never pardon his son.
Here’s audio of her comments:

REPORTER: Is it fair to compare Biden's pardon of Hunter to the J6-ers targeted by Biden's DOJ?
KARINE JEAN-PIERRE: "What is unprecedented is the way that his son was singled out."

Here’s more from Breitbart:
White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre told reporters aboard Air Force One en route to Angola on Monday that “no reasonable person” could have come to a conclusion other than that Hunter Biden deserved to be pardoned.
President Joe Biden pardoned his son on Sunday evening for crimes going back through 2014. Jean-Pierre had said for years — including as recently as November — that Biden would not pardon his son. Biden himself said the same.
Jean-Pierre changed her tune on Monday, claiming that Hunter Biden would not have been prosecuted if he had not been a person “who has the last name of the president,” and also 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,” she said.
Journalists, incredulous, asked Jean-Pierre whether she was saying that the Department of Justice was politicized; if so, whether it was the president’s own fault, because of his appointees; and how many politicized cases there were.
Jean-Pierre declined to answer these questions, though she did say that President Biden was not going to demand the resignation of Attorney General Merrick Garland for the alleged singling out of his son in deference to Republicans.
She added that Biden did not agree with President-elect Donald Trump that the justice system has been weaponized.
“He believes in the Department of Justice,” she said, though “politics infected the process.”
It was all a big sham to begin with. Joe Biden was always going to pardon his son when his sweetheart deal fell through and KJP knew this and still lied about it to the American people.
