Joe Exotic of Netflix’s Tiger King is seeking presidential progeny treatment.

The monarch of Big Cats responded to President Joe Biden’s pardon of his son Hunter by saying, “I deserve freedom.”

He was responding to a post from Breaking911, an X-based news aggregator that had announced the Biden Pardon and asked, “Who will Joe pardon next?”

In the comments under the post, Exotic responded again. This time he said, “I deserve to get out of this hell hold [sic], all 3 people recanted their affidavits on Tiger King 2.”

The day before, the internet sensation who captured the American zeitgeist in 2020 spoke even more forcefully.

A law enforcement agency has never charged Hunter Biden with any offense related to pedophilia or treason. However, there has been a swirl of allegations around the young Biden and his infamous laptop that alleges Hunter was involved in shady foreign influence peddling schemes in Ukraine and China while his father was Vice President. Business associates of Hunter say that the then-Vice President knew of the dealings and was involved, although the Biden administration denies this.

Rumors about other alleged misconduct have been stimulated by the breadth of the President’s December 1 pardon. The pardon covered all “offenses against the United States which he has committed or may have committed or taken part in during the period from January 1, 2014, through December 1, 2024, including but not limited to all offenses charged or prosecuted”.

The 46th President said his action was motivated by his son’s perceived persecution. Biden said that he had long maintained that he would “not interfere with the Justice Department’s decision-making, and I kept my word even as I have watched my son being selectively, and unfairly, prosecuted.”

Hunter Biden faced legal issues involving both federal gun and tax charges.

In Delaware, he was convicted in June of three felony counts related to falsely stating on a 2018 firearm purchase form that he was not using illicit drugs. In Los Angeles, he pled guilty to nine federal tax charges stemming from late or unpaid taxes in September. The gun charges carried a potential sentence of up to 25 years, while the tax charges could have led to up to 17 years in prison, though federal guidelines suggested less severe sentencing.

Exotic raised the element of witnesses recanting testimony that was used against him in federal court, which the Tiger King has been discussing for some time.

Exotic’s website, JoeExoticOfficial.com, features videos where he claims the witnesses give exonerating testimony and recant the previous statements. The Dallas Express watched several of the videos after a previous exclusive interview with Exotic, and they appear to show Allen Glover discussing a plot to kill him with a piano wire and other nefarious activities.

Exotic had previously pled for a pardon from Biden and Trump during his DX interview and also discussed his new engagement to an illegal immigrant he is imprisoned within Fort Worth.

Exotic, whose real name is Joseph Maldonado-Passage, faced 19 convictions on wildlife crime charges under the Lacey Act and Endangered Species Act in 2019. He was also convicted on two counts of hiring hitmen to kill his archrival, animal activist Carole Baskin. He is currently serving a 21-year sentence.
