Comer Rejects Hunter Biden’s Public Testimony Offer | Eastern North Carolina Now

    Hunter Biden has offered to testify publicly before the House Oversight Committee as part of an impeachment inquiry into his father, President Joe Biden - but Chairman James Comer (R-KY) isn't having it.

    In a statement on Tuesday, Comer declared that the terms outlined by the younger Biden's lawyer Abbe Lowell did not comply with a subpoena demanding a closed-door deposition.

    "Hunter Biden is trying to play by his own rules instead of following the rules required of everyone else. That won't stand with House Republicans," Comer said.

    "Our lawfully issued subpoena to Hunter Biden requires him to appear for a deposition on December 13," Comer added. "We expect full cooperation with our subpoena for a deposition but also agree that Hunter Biden should have the opportunity to testify in a public setting at a future date."

    Comer, who is leading the corruption-focused impeachment inquiry, issued subpoenas for testimony from Hunter Biden, the president's brother James Biden, and Rob Walker, a former Biden family business associate earlier this month.

    Lowell responded to Comer in a letter on Tuesday, stating that his client would accept the chairman's "offer" - yet only if the deposition is conducted in a forum that the world can see.

    "Accordingly, our client will get right to it by agreeing to answer any pertinent and relevant question you or your colleagues might have, but - rather than subscribing to your cloaked, one-sided process - he will appear at a public Oversight and Accountability Committee hearing," Lowell said, adding later, "A public proceeding would prevent selective leaks, manipulated transcripts, doctored exhibits, or one-sided press statements."

    For months, the GOP-led House has been investigating whether the business practices of Biden's family members fostered corruption in government - spurred by a money trail showing millions of dollars from foreign countries. Congressional investigators have also looked into how the Department of Justice handled the criminal probe into Hunter Biden.

    President Biden and his allies insist he committed no wrongdoing and claim the investigative efforts by House Republicans are tainted by politics. Planned depositions stretch over the next several weeks but could go longer if there is a legal fight, which could dash hopes to have a possible vote on articles of impeachment early next year.

    White House special counsel Dick Sauber wrote a letter to GOP leaders calling on them to withdraw their subpoenas and interview requests to Biden family members and others, saying, "you have misrepresented the facts" and "ignored the overwhelming evidence disproving your claims."

Now that the public is allowed to know the truth regarding the Hunter Biden Laptop Scandal, after more that 2 1/2 years of deception by the corrupt Corporate Media Kabal, propropagandidats all, and the discredited Deep State, we have NOW learned that the infamous laptop is far less about the Biden Boy's fetish for pornography, narcotics and Russian whores, and far more about Hunter's pivotal role in the Biden Crime Syndicate's selling of deep access to our foreign adversaries, and to what extent it has compromised our national security: What is your opinion about this possible coordinated Treason?
  It is imperative that we know the truth of what may be the greatest scandal in our Republic's history, and all aforementioned parties prosecuted for their crimes against the People.
  Currently, our Two Tiered Justice System is constructed to protect all Democratic Socialists, their corrupt "Journalist" spokes-sheople, and their Deep State enablers ... so why bother.
  It is Donald Trump's fault.
  How can we be assured that the "Laptop" is real? Would NOT our standard journalists have investigated this issue thoroughly nearly 3 years ago if it was real?

After nearly 8 months of the United States House of Representatives' Oversight Committee hearings, House Speaker Mike Johnson is pursuing an Impeachment Inquiry into the strong allegations of Bribery, Influence Peddling, Money laundering and possible Treason regarding the Biden Family Shell Corporations' business dealings with foreign nations that are adversarial to our survival: Is it prudent and wise for the Republican controlled U.S. House to investigate this Democratic Socialist President?
  No, Democratics should never be investigated because they are so superior to their Republican counterparts, and care so much more.
  Yes, in a Constitutional Republic, bound by the Rule of Law, no one is above the law, and that law must be applied evenly.
  Not sure ... Now, what got all this started?

Considering that the 2024 Presidential Election has fully begun, and the Biden Administration has consequently fully weaponized the Biden DOJ /FBI to attack all political opponents under the penalty of felonious judgement for many of the same alleged crimes, or worse, committed by Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden himself: Are you comfortable with this level of overt corruption within the Executive Branch?
  Yes; if Democratic Socialists are to complete the remaking of this "Democracy," the End will Always Justify the Means.
  No; in a Constitutional Republic, the Rule of Law is paramount, which means the law MUST be administered evenly
  Who cares; I am just so ambivalent to all this grown-up stuff.
