House Republicans say they are willing to go along with Hunter Biden and agree to subpoena him again for the impeachment inquiry into his demented father, President Joe Biden, after refusing to comply with the last subpoena.
Oversight Chairman James Comer (R-KY) and Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH) wrote to Abbe Lowell, Hunter's lawyer. They gave kudos to Hunter's "newfound willingness" [aka come to Jesus moment] to testify before Congress in a deposition under subpoena.
“Although the Committee’s subpoenas are lawful and remain legally enforceable, as an accommodation to Mr. Biden and at your request, we are prepared to issue subpoenas compelling Mr. Biden’s appearance at a deposition on a new date in the coming weeks,” Comer and Jordan wrote.
So Lowell wrote back to Comer on Friday after the oversight and judiciary panels approved resolutions to hold Hunter in contempt of Congress for flagrantly defying subpoenas issued in November.
The lawyer said Hunter Biden would appear for a deposition or hearing in compliance with a “proper subpoena” since the House voted to formally authorize the impeachment inquiry in December.
The recovering crack addict and whore mongering first son showed up on Capitol Hill twice: once on the day of his scheduled deposition and next as the House considered the contempt resolutions, demanding he be allowed to appear in an open setting such as a public hearing to answer "legitimate" questions while keeping lawmakers from somehow distorting his testimony.
House Republicans said they were willing to have Hunter testify in a public hearing — but only after a deposition — and have insisted throughout the standoff that their subpoenas were valid.
“To be clear, the issuance of these subpoenas does not in any way suggest or imply that the Committees believe the assertions in your January 12 letter to have any merit,” Comer and Jordan wrote in the Sunday letter. “Our willingness to issue these subpoenas is rooted entirely in our interest in obtaining Mr. Biden’s testimony as expeditiously as possible.”
The GOP had been expected to move forward with a floor vote this week, and the Democrat attack dog, Rep. Jamie Raskin (MD) encouraged the Republicans to call off the plan following Lowell's letter.
“Hunter Biden is giving Republicans exactly what they have been demanding this week,” Raskin claimed on Friday, adding that the doper “has offered to appear for a ‘hearing or deposition.’ It is time for Chairs Comer and Jordan to call off this truly absurd and wasteful contempt proceeding and finally take yes for an answer, which Chair Jordan already said he would ‘certainly’ do.”
Raskin is an annoying leftist who lies for a living.
