Republican Oversight Committee rejects Hunter Biden's request to give his testimony in public

Exposed again, this time by Jared Moskowitz.  Asks for a vote on if Republicans want to hear from Hunter Biden right now (they didn't), uses Comer's own quotes against him (Comer just pretended he hadn't said them), and then offered to vote for the contempt charge if Republicans would agree to vote for contempt charges against a bunch of Republicans who disregarded THEIR subpoenas.  A very effective, concise way to use 3 minutes.

Talk about acting on your own feelings. You're a lawyer you need to deal with the facts.  Believe me, if the Democrats could have impeached Trump dozens of times they would have. The vitriol hatred for Trump is beyond belief. 

What?!

It's kinda hard to believe that Hunter sat all morning in the gallery of the oversight committee, MAGA congress (self-proclaimed, Bigbrog, self-proclaimed....don't get all upset with me) in full force ready with all the hard hitting evidence and questions and answers for him......and nobody wants to talk about it.

He's usually such a hot topic??

Yeah, they should have grabbed him and taken him into the bowels of the capitol and do the closed interviewing right then and there.   That would make everyone happy right?

mspart

That would have been against the law.....but MAGA gonna MAGA....so kinda surprised they just basically chose to ignore the fact that he was ready for questioning, instead of trying to do just that.

What you are suggesting would be a breach of protocol.   You would allow Hunter to dictate to the House Committee what they will and what they will not do.   Got it.   So if the shoe was on the other foot, of course you would not oppose disrupting a planned meeting to do something completely different.     

Hunter being there is not against the law but there is a time and a place and Hunter doesn't get to choose his time and place.   He was not there to testify, but to disrupt.   He is under subpoena and chose to ignore the law and do his own thing.

The leader of this particular committee LITERALLY OFFERED FOR HUNTER TO COME TESTIFY PUBLICLY, then took it back when he agreed to do it.

The leader of this particular committee literally offered Hunter to testify publicly after he was deposed in closed door session.   Read the subpoena. 

Hunter literally today said he would go for private deposition.   But his demand is a new subpoena.   https://thehill.com/homenews/house/4405382-hunter-biden-deposition-subpoena/

But it must be a new proper subpoena.  

He thinks he can dictate to Congress.   What a farce.

Nope.  Just literally taking them at their word.

BTW, here's Comer saying, out loud, that "we can bring these people in for depositions or Committee hearings, whichever they choose."  And then, when ol' Hunter took him up on it, that changed.  WEIRD!

 

The man is just seemingly constantly searching for rakes to step on.

Everyone agrees it is a farce. We just disagree on who is to blame for the farce.

Drowning in data, but thirsting for knowledge

Can't argue the part where they are going top take context out of his testimony and use it for lies and click bait.  Also can't argue Jim Jordan and other MAGAns refused the same subpoenas.   Additionally, can't argue MTG's obsession with his penis is totally unbecoming Congress.

Not karma.  Dems are just delivering payback for the Republicans doing it. 

Truthfully, they all play by the same set of rules.  Shame because it is amoral.

Reporter: "Did Joe Call Hunter's 'business partners"

Joe Biden: "Never"

Hunter's Partner: "Yes. Often"

Reporter: "What did they talk about"

Hunter's Partner: "The weather"

Democrats: "Well then. Case closed."

Just to be clear, this is from the deposition in which Hunter's partner says he has no idea who Hunter ACTUALLY called, what they said, what they did?

 

It's kinda cute how you just made up a narrative there and then using quotes inserted a completely different context to his answers. Kinda circling back to the original point which is why this should be public...so people can't just make shit like this up.

How did I know that this thread would somehow get turned into it being about Trump??  TDS is real folks!  I for one would love to go even a day without hearing about freaking stupid Trump...why...because I don't like him.  

Jesus Christ...the dude was President, he's the leading candidate to be the GOP Nominee and he's the one that 1/3rd of the country blindly follows. So SHOCKING that his name would be brought up in this conversation!

What comes to mind immediately

  • Better purchase power
  • More affordable healthcare coverage for my family
  • Safety ( "come home before dark" )
  • Playing multiple sports & unstructured play
  • Family

More... (no particular order)

  1. Family was better; the two-parent household was more common; parents spent more time with their kids.
  2. Affordability: providing for oneself and family was easier.
  3. People were healthier, less obese, had better food, and had cheaper health care.
  4. Better mental health
  5. Kids played multiple recreational sports; they were not specialized in competitive club sports at age 7... not every minute of their day was planned.
  6. I used to wave down police cars, socialize, and collect baseball cards for my home team.
  7. Baseball cards were priced from Becket magazine rather than sent off for professional grading
  8. Adults were treated with respect.  Sir, Maam, Hold the door open, pull out the chair, etc., and so on.
  9. My car was safe to park in the city; there was no fear of stolen gas, converters, or broken windows.
  10. Fights were settled with words or fists, not weapons.
  11. Not all popular songs had offensive lyrics.  But also, MTV.
  12. Space exploration was better funded.
  13. Darker skies made it easier to see stars; less light pollution
  14. The news was 'just the news.' / Journalism
  15. Humans staffed customer service
  16. The government was smaller
  17. Congress voted across party lines
  18. Privacy
  19. 14-year-olds looked like they were 14 years old rather than 21-year-olds
  20. People were not trying to get social media likes
  21. Air travel was easier
  22. You could say Merry Christmas rather than Happy Holidays
  23. Working at a company for more than two years was common
  24. Looney Tunes
  25. Disney
  26. Appliances lasted for years and years
  27. Less national debt
  28. College was more affordable
  29. Calling for genocide was considered harassment
  30. Less cancel culture
  31. More things were 'made in America'
  32. Less illegal immigration
  33. People spent more time outside
  34. Did you read this
  35. Pride to be an American
  36. Slower pace of life
  37. Buy local
  38. People made eye contact and spoke with others rather than staring at their phones
  39. School taught practical skills
  40. You had five seconds to eat food that touched the floor

Was this necessary for you to understand the point made?

I don't mind adding more examples to what was unnecessarily provided before... its good to write... it forces clarity of thought.

Queue the criticism for wrongthink and lack of mentioning privilege in 3...2...1... Action!

This video reminds me of the discussion about what was great for America.
