One consequence of President Biden's surprise pardon of his son, Hunter, is that Hunter Biden is no longer afforded the protection of the Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination for the matters pardoned (Newsweek, US News & World Report, News Nation). A subpoena issued by either house of Congress, including any congressional committees, will count (Cornell - Subpoena). A mere invitation to testify before Congress will not count. Whether the subpoena is actually served on Hunter Biden is immaterial. Confused? Check our FAQ or ask us for help. To learn more about Good Judgment and Superforecasting, click here.
