(The Center Square) – Hunter Biden defied a congressional subpoena Wednesday by refusing to appear for a deposition with the House Oversight Committee, the latest development in the impeachment inquiry into his father, President Joe Biden.
House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., threatened a contempt of Congress charge last week if Hunter Biden refused the deposition. At time of publication, he had not followed through.
Hunter Biden has asked to testify publicly instead of in private, saying that House Republicans would twist his testimony. He spoke to reporters outside the Capitol building Wednesday morning.
“For six years I have been the target of the unrelenting Trump attack machine, shouting, ‘Where’s Hunter?” he said. “Well, here’s my answer. I am here.”
House Republican leadership is expected Wednesday to bring a floor vote that would formalize the impeachment inquiry into the president.
That move would put the full weight of the House behind the inquiry and provide more legal footing for the subpoenas sent out by the impeachment inquiry if that issue goes to court.
“It’s clear the House will have to defend our lawful investigations in court, and passing this resolution will put us in the best position possible to enforce our subpoenas and set forth a clear process,” House Majority Whip Tom Emmer, R-Minn., said at a press conference Tuesday.
Posing the Question of “where is Hunter, where is Hunter is like asking the Question, “Where is our basement dwelling President, both of whom always respond just like when you ask a child “Where is Thumper”???.,,, All we get is “Here I am, Here I am, How are you today sir?, Very well I thank you” always followed by a “Runaway, Runaway”,,,,,stumbing all the way while THE PEOPLE just sit and spin and wait for an adult to show up and give us some answers that actually and honestly make sense.
House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., threatened a contempt of Congress charge last week if Hunter Biden refused the deposition. At time of publication, he had not followed through.
And herein lies the problem. The spineless GOP lacks the courage to follow thru.
And the Radical Left knows it.
AND even if they DO FOLLOW THROUGH and charge him. BIDEN CONTROLS the dept of injustice, who’s gonna be responsible for TAKING those charges to court.
Now we have Hunter Biden a dishonest, corrupt, drug addict dictating to Congress what laws he will obey and which laws he will not obey.
Now I am waiting to see what the wimpy Republicans in congress will do? Probably just scold him.
I know, if it was me, and I told my son to do just what hunter did, not only would my SON be arrested, but so would I FOR “aiding and abetting” as well as “Interfering with an investigation”..
So, is there going to be a warrant out for his arrest now?
THERE damn well should be. BUT even if congress REFERRS It to the DOJ, hell will freeze over, before anything comes of it.
