The Congressional Integrity Project reports on several inconsistencies and untruths in James Comer’s House investigation
This is the best summary I could come up with:
James Comer, the ambitious chairman of the House of Representatives’ oversight committee, has repeatedly overhyped allegations of bribery and corruption against Biden without once producing hard evidence, according to the Congressional Integrity Project.
“After months of political stunts, dozens of hearings, transcribed interviews, and memos, and despite hours on Fox peddling conspiracy theories, Comer and his Maga crew have failed to find a single shred of evidence linking President Biden to any of their lurid accusations,” says the report by the Congressional Integrity Project, which monitors the Republican investigations.
In early May, Comer and Senator Chuck Grassley, investigating Hunter’s work for the Ukrainian energy company Burisma, published an open letter to the FBI announcing subpoenas for an unclassified document supposedly describing an alleged “criminal scheme involving then-Vice-President Biden and a foreign national relating to the exchange of money for policy decisions”.
But when Comer and Grassley obtained the document, form FD-1023, and publicly released a redacted version – against the advice of intelligence officials who feared it would “unnecessarily risks the safety of a confidential source” – it turned out to be an uncorroborated FBI tip.
In June, during a series of interviews with rightwing media, Comer claimed that the supposed bribery allegations against Biden have nothing to do with Rudy Giuliani, the former New York mayor turned lawyer for ex-president Donald Trump.
Kyle Herrig, the Congressional Integrity Project’s executive director, argues Trump’s myriad legal troubles are a motivating factor for Comer and allies ahead of next year’s presidential election.

These ass-hats are putting people’s lives and national security at risk over this nonsense. The next potential tipster is going to keep their mouth shut now because of this idiocy.
Remember when Matt Gaetz stormed a SCIF? His justification was that they were holding “secret impeachment hearings”?
I led over 30 of my colleagues into the SCIF where Adam Schiff is holding secret impeachment depositions.
And the reality was that it was a briefing on how we had agents from the CIA inside low level positions of the Ukrainian government working with the Government that were watching Russian moles that also had positions in the Ukrainian government? And that Russia had found out that it was happening but hadn’t figured out who it was so they were launching all kinds of operations to try and get some information on who to kill? And this whole meeting was to figure out how best to help those agents before they got killed?
Fun times.
And what’s even better, you haven’t heard peep from Gaetz about his “brave” storming the SCIF since. Because he almost got a bunch of people fucking killed with his stunt, was told he almost got a bunch of people fucking killed, and all that “brave” shit disappeared like a fart in a hurricane. So…
These ass-hats are putting people’s lives and national security at risk over this nonsense
It’s not just this nonsense they’re doing it over. They do it over all kinds of bullshit. And people like Gaetz do not vet shit and eat it up like it’s the gospel. And nations like China, Russia, India, and what not know these fuckers will eat it up and feed it to them. They constantly bitch about “government conditioning” and other pyops bullshit, but they themselves are the major victims of it.
It’s got to be a fucking uphill battle when you have a political party that’s just eating foreign bullshit and calling domestic intelligence “weaponizing government”. Our intelligence apparatus does not want these fuck wits handing our country over to someone else, but goddamn it, they keep having so little trust in the USA because, IDK, but all I can chalk it up to is that they are absolutely fucking morons. They just want “someone” to be wrong so they can stroke their massive ego dicks is the best I can figure out.
What’s that mnemonic device for counterintelligence? MICE. There are four general things that will convince someone to betray their nation, “Money, Ideology, Compromising information, and Ego”. And goddamn it, these fuckers get every single one of those tickled by the very fuckers that want to destroy this country. It has to be frustrating to see them time and time again sitting up there in the committee acting like some CIA agent that risked their lives trying to keep bad people out of our interests is fucking trying to destroy Donald Trump or some shit. Like, “MY DUDE. Bigger picture here Senator/Representative. Believe it or not, there’s more to all of this shit than some megalomaniac asshat who was once President.” Shocking!

The American Conservative Party: several decades of abject failure.
Rep. Ken Buck (R-CO) called out Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) on MSNBC for her “absurd” devotion towards impeaching President Biden, claiming there is no evidence that Biden committed any wrongdoings.
Said Buck: “Marjorie filed impeachment articles of impeachment on President Biden before he was sworn into office more than two and a half years ago. The idea that she is now the expert on impeachment or that she is someone who should set the timing on impeachment is absurd.”
She is a chaos actor. Her job is to be absurd so that you’re distracted while the real shit goes down.
It all just boils down to “whyareyoumeantoMyPrezdentUhAmGohnBeMeanToYerz!!!11111ELEVENTY” with Empty G and people like her. Deep down, they probably know donnie Bin Laden is rotten, but they just don’t care, the cognitive dissonance is probably excruciating for them, and they want to hew to this notion that he’s totally innocent and the consequences of his crimes are “political” and they just want to figure out how to make Biden suffer, just because.
It’s the party of Veruca Salt. Any time you want to understand what motivates most Republicans, watch those brats on the old Willie Wonka movie. I recently watched that movie, and wow, I think Empty G and a lot of the party took Veruca Salt as a role model for life.
No grandpa, Joe Biden is the president, not Hunter, he holds no government office.
The obsession with Hunter is fucking weird as hell. And he seems to live rent free in their heads.
I was talking to my conservative brother and made a joke about drugs or something, and he immediately said “Just watch out for Hunter Biden! Hahaha!”
It wasn’t even a political conversation, I just mistook a smoke shop sign for something else and joked about it! I don’t even think I can name Trump’s kids except Eric. And I don’t know fucking anything about them. Why do they care about Hunter when he’s not even the fucking president, it’s so bizarre.
Didn’t Marjorie Traitor Green (T) bring slides of Hunter’s cock to session about a month ago?
I think it’s as simple as Hunter being a convenient boogeyman to demonize and weave into the “democrats bad” narrative in conservative media. And many conservatives think about what that media machine tells them to think about - including second hand from their buddy who is “into politics.”
It’s because they are vindictive as anything. They cannot deal with the fact that donnie Bin Laden might face the slightest inconveniences over crimes he committed and want to exact revenge on…someone.
They also don’t want to really own up to the fact that they were 100% down with donnie Bin Laden and their party is all-in on someone like donnie as one flaw after another about him becomes nearly impossible to ignore. The cognitive dissonance builds up and builds up and I think it exhibits itself in weird outbursts like the obsession with Hunter and his nudes on the hard drive, oops, I mean, “laptop”.
