As of my latest knowledge update, there’s no specific news about the Democrats renewing their push to limit specifically due to a “Hunter Biden pardon”. However, the idea of limiting the presidential clemency powers has been discussed several times before. It was mainly after a series of controversial pardons and commutations by former presidents.
Generally, presidential clemency powers include the right to pardon (completely absolve an individual of the crime they’re charged with), and the power to commute sentences (reduce the severity or length of the sentencing). The authority comes from the U.S. Constitution (Article II, Section 2, Clause 1).
Efforts to limit these powers are usually triggered by controversial choices of pardons or commutations, viewed by some as an abuse of power or politically motivated. The changes aim to provide more checks and balances within the system.
For the most accurate updates regarding this situation, I recommend checking the latest news from reliable sources, as my knowledge base might not be updated real-time.
