    Was president involved in his son’s decision to not comply with a congressional subpoena? The letter asks for all “documents and communications sent or received by employees of the Executive Office of the President regarding the deposition of Hunter Biden,” as well as any records "sent or received by employees of the Executive Office of the President regarding President Biden’s statement about his family’s business associates on December 6, 2023.”

    ""“In light of an official statement from the White House that President Biden was aware in advance that his son, Hunter Biden, would knowingly defy two congressional subpoenas, we are compelled to examine as part of our impeachment inquiry whether the President engaged in a conspiracy to obstruct a proceeding of Congress,” "

    Pop, didn't Jordan himself defy a congressional subpoena?

    Don't you find that hypocritical on his part?

    “The president was certainly familiar with what his son was going to say and I think what you saw was from the heart, from his son,” press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said during her regular briefing.

    nope... but let Jim Jordan speak for himself...
    I agree with Jim Jordan.... why would he not defy the January 6 committee that was illegal and illegitimate... and you can't argue with that... he was one of them that was selectively banned from the very committee serving the subpoena... following their own rules there would have been 13 members... instead there were only 9 hand picked Pelosi people... ya don't get anymore illegal and illegitimate than that... and I totally agree with him that Pelosi allowed J6 to happen by not having adequate security to prevent it. ... and Pelosi was never subpoenaed to talk about her role in J6..

    The House has crossed all the T's to do this as rules apply...

    Two wrongs doesn't make it right, right? This kind of thing is getting way out of hand.. You or I ignoring a subpoena would have far greater consequences!

    I think these are legitimate concerns. I would also argue that with how much time he has spent with his son there is absolutely no way he didn’t know of his intentions or possibly could have encouraged them. I would say this could very well be a case of obstruction

    I believe this Republican Party has the support of their constituents to investigate and that they are doing so in a legal manner that will expose the truth.

    I've said all along that the way to impeach Biden is to go after all of the cover-ups regarding Hunter.

    So Jordan has become a judge who can decide which investigations are legitimate and which are not. He gets to decide what subpoenas are legitimate and which are not...you don't find that hypocritical that one man's opinion excuses himself and wants to hold someone else accountable for the same thing? Sounds like the justice system is being taken down when the law applies to one and not to another.,

    Exactly neither you nor I can ignore a subpoena. Neither should we allow someone who ignored a subpoena to punish another for ignoring the same type of subpoena. It is hypocritical and illogical to do so.

    Well you could ask Pelosi what her testimony was when she complied with her subpoena and set before the committee to explain why there was only 9 member in a 13 member committee and why the lack security that day allowed the J6 to happen after intel was known and the guards were authorized...she had become the judge over the committee and which investigations are legitimate and which are not...

    oh wait

    My bad.... Pelosi never was subpoenaed for her involvement, or lack of, and never once asked why she failed in providing security that day... it seems many in Congress where asking in letters but never received responses.... Why is that?

    WTAF content duly noted.

    So according to that ILLOGICAL nonsense content above Elon Muskrat's JOB as CEO makes him PERSONALLY responsible if a family of RACOONS breaks into the basement cafeteria kitchen?

    This is so BIZARRE it crosses the line.

    Can someone tell us when any republican anywhere is responsible for anything, ever?

    All we hear is how trumps pathetic gdp growth and currency manipulation wasn’t his fault, covid response wasn’t his fault, election fraud wasn’t his fault, trade wars weren’t his fault, republicans are not at fault for shutting down government, security isn’t their fault either.

    As to Babbitt. She ****ed around and found out

    Because she was not in charge of security. You just can't make up "facts" because they fit you're argument or accept some falsehood just because someone says it out loud.
    "Facts First: The Speaker of the House is not in charge of Capitol security. That’s the responsibility of the Capitol Police Board, which oversees the US Capitol Police and approves requests for National Guard assistance.
    Jane L. Campbell, president and CEO of the US Capitol Historical Society, told CNN that “the Speaker of the House does not oversee security of the US Capitol, nor does this official oversee the Capitol Police Board.”

    Pelosi also cannot unduly influence who is appointed to the Board, which consists of the House and Senate Sergeants at Arms, the Architect of the Capitol and the Chief of the Capitol Police. The Sergeants at Arms are elected and must be confirmed by their respective chambers and the Architect must be confirmed by both chambers of Congress."

    Why are you scared of Congress investigation the Biden family...

    What did Joe Biden know and when did he know it.... Where is the DOJ investigations...

    Their "chase" is to investigate Joe Biden and his involvement in money laundering, bribery, and influence peddling of his family.. 170 plus "suspicious activity reports" would be just a tip of the iceberg... Comer has uncovered pages and pages of "reasonable suspicious" activity that is the low bar set for DOJ investigations...

    Your "citizen" lives at the White House... and I ain't talking about daddy Joe....how would your "citizen" know about CIA assassinations and brokering oil deals between Putin and Xi...

    She was very much in charge and oversaw the lack of security that day..... there are plenty of government officials who publicly address just fact....
