N.J. Senator-elect Andy Kim says Hunter Biden’s pardon feeds assumption that ‘well-connected play by a different set of rules’

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/n-j-senator-elect-andy-kim-says-hunter-biden-s-pardon-feeds-assumption-that-well-connected-play-by-a-different-set-of-rules/ar-AA1v94u1

Kim said he believes that Biden’s pardon “only feeds into this harmful assumption that the well-off and well-connected play by a different set of rules.” Kim, who is headed to the U.S. Senate in January, has made a name for himself working outside of the Democratic machine.

“I hear from so many people right now in New Jersey and elsewhere that politics is just an insiders’ game, benefiting the few over the American people’s everyday needs,” Kim continued. “ … While as a dad I can sympathize with President Biden’s family, as a citizen, I am disappointed in his decision.”


He needs to stop this now. He's also not saying how he was called by numerous constituents (including me) saying how disappointed we were in his statement.

He's also never responded to my question (I asked at a Party meet and greet) on the over turning of Affirmative Action. Eh? What do I know.

I'm just a black woman. I'm *less than* the white working class men and their handmaid wives to people like Andy Kim
