I did not involve my father in my business. Not while I was a practicing lawyer, not in my investments or transactions domestic or international, not as a board member, and not as an artist. Never,
This whole fiasco is a disgrace to the rule of law. Hunter is a private citizen, he is not and has never been an elected official. Somehow his legal cases are going through congress, which is reserved for investigating crimes of elected officials. This is not supposed to be allowed, congress does not have the authority to hold court for private citizens. They’re not gonna have the authority when they try subpoena’ing his documents related to his cases
Not only that.
But their primary witness and source of information in all this, was a Russian operative, and these people were warned in 2020 by our own intelligence operatives that the information they were getting from him was sketchy at best and stunk of Russian operations.
And even now, their star witness and the very foundational block they have built all this on has been arrested, has fully outright admitted the lies and that he was spreading lies on Russian orders, and Republicans are still like “Just because the core of our case is gone doesnt mean the core of our case is gone!”
Because its not about rule of law. Its not about whats right. Its not about investigations. Its not about these imaginary payments
Its about twisting the mechanisms of government into a Republican political campaign to hurt Biden to the benefit of Trump. Its about slinging shit at the wall 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, to see what sticks, and to flood the airwaves and news media with a torrent of bullshit in the hopes that just a tiny fraction of it will stick in someones head and influence their vote away from Democracy.
He’s not the one being charged though, he’s been subpoenaed as a witness. The president is the person that’s being investigated.
I’ve lost track, did he finally get them to make the testimony open or whatever
It doesn’t look like it. The NYT says it is a closed deposition. It looks like he made the decision to give the closed testimony the Republicans wanted. Although maybe he thinks that after their main informant was exposed as a Russian stooge, he can better control the narrative.
I bet he prepared this statement, and then released it himself right as he was giving his testimony, to make sure Republicans couldn’t hide it.
Open or closed doesn’t matter.
trump supporters will claim he’s guilty and Biden shouldn’t be president.
Biden supporters will say Hunter is 100% innocent of any crimes ever, even when he’s self admittedly broken lots of laws.
The majority of the country won’t give a shit except wanting all wealthy connected criminals to be held accountable regardless of their “team”. But no one is going to listen to us.
Biden supporters will say Hunter is 100% innocent of any crimes ever
No one is saying that. Anywhere.
You could… read the article.
Republicans launched contempt of Congress proceedings against Hunter Biden as a result of his defiance, advancing the resolution in January. Hunter Biden’s team, however, acquiesced before the full House voted on the measure, saying he would sit for a closed-door deposition if Republicans reissued their subpoena — which they did.
Why would he. It is clearly a trap. It needs to performed by the judiciary branch and open to the public or it should hold no grounds
This is so irrelevant, who CARES
Behold, our great American Institutions, smeared in red and white makeup, fastened to oversized shoes, and completed with a honking nose.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Hunter Biden testified on Wednesday that he “did not involve” his father, President Biden, in his business dealings, delivering the message at the beginning of his highly anticipated deposition as part of the GOP’s impeachment inquiry into the president.
“I am here today to provide the Committees with the one uncontestable fact that should end the false premise of this inquiry: I did not involve my father in my business.
Not while I was a practicing lawyer, not in my investments or transactions domestic or international, not as a board member, and not as an artist.
Never,” Biden said during his opening statement.
The original article contains 104 words, the summary contains 103 words. Saved 1%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
LOL… the word the bot skipped (at time of writing) was the “DEVELOPING.” at the bottom of the article.
Then again calling a paragraph you can read without scrolling an article is a bit generous.
