    So you are now in favor of arresting every Trump supporter who refused to testify before the Jan 6 committee? Be honest. Come on.

    I've made no demands. And Hunter tried to accept Comer's original demands, but Comer changed the rules. And please explain how we can impeach Hunter.

    The witness can ask for a transcript of the deposition and make it public.

    They were arrested and put in jail but then it is the Rep members of Congress to which you are referring and that was rebutted in the hearings did you miss it,

    But then you DID want everyone of those arrested didn't you? Be honest. Come on. Tell me why Hunter should not be without mentioning anyone else. What protect privilege does he hold?

    Please cite your claim that people like Jordan and McCarthy were arrested and put in jail for evading their subpoenas. You made that claim. Back it up. We both know you can't back it up. And, no, I never called for any of those arrests. I don't share your hypocrisy. Pathetic.

    How does allegedly changing the rules supersede a subpoena?

    When Obama flip flopped on an issue the left said his position 'evolved.' Consider Comer's position evolved and get over it already.

    Fake argument. Try to learn to be intellectually consistent, stop projecting your hypocrisy onto others, and get over it already. You won't.

    Do you ever recall hearing these words: No one is above the law.

    And what was the sentence for Jordan and McCarthy, bud? Funny how you like to say "no one is above the law" and then run away and hide and cry when people point out that you are being dishonest with that claim.

    It doesn't have the same impact as public testimony.

    I don't understand why the Republicans are refusing to allow Hunter to be questioned in front of the American people.

    If they had a strong case, they wouldn't be afraid of him.

    It was all for Hunter’s documentary. Expect the video to be doctored to make Biden look like a responsible citizen. The media had a field day with Hunter. He still isn’t answering questions.

    Jared Moskowitz (D) suggested that H. Biden testify on the spot, since he was in the room.

    Comer declined.

    Why ?

    Don't the people have the right to hear him?

    Is the only way you and yours can defend your hero is with whataboutisms? Think about the kind of scumbag you siding with; a crack smoking military reject who porked his dead bother's wife and then went on to fight being responsible for the daughter he ignores.

    How many times does this need to be explained to you? I believe you're a smart person, but on this issue.....

    Once again, Hunter and his attorney are playing chess and the GOP are playing with themselves.

    LOL

    There is no reason why Congress should be investigating a private citizen for drug use. That's ****ing insane. How do you excuse the authoritarianism that you are now promoting?

    Here is what the Dems are trying use

    "Rep. Comer answered, “Well, I think what I want to look at with Hunter Biden. If I could just have one thing with Hunter Biden. It would be his bank records.”


    Comer added some conspiracy talking points and then referred to the compromised laptop, but the Newsmax host was not satisfied and asked again, “But Congressman, why not subpoena him and have them testify on Capitol Hill? Even if he doesn’t say anything that’s going to be uncomfortable for the president to have his son testify on the Hill.”

    Chairman Comer crumbled some more, “Well, as I said in the investigation early on, I think we’re going to follow the money and Hunter Biden is more than welcome to come in front of the committee if he wants to clear his good name. If he wants to come and say, you know, these were not 20 shell companies. They actually did something he’s more than he’s invited. Today. We will drop everything.”
    https://www.politicususa.com/2023/09/13/james-comer-hunter-biden-subpoena.html

    In front of the committee which he will do in the DEPOSITION there is no promise of a PUBLIC hearing first. And that was back in September and we have even MORE new evidence since which has to be vetted before any public testimony heck just today we learned that the art dealer NEVER spoke to the Biden's about so blind trust selling of the art and in fact Hunter knows where 70% of the purchases came from and that a HUGE chunk of those from his rich friend in California and a Dem donor who then got a sweetheart appointment.

    There is a process and the Biden's are trying to give the middle finger to it, the Congress and WE the people with this disgraceful grandstanding and political theater.

    Comer was the one who OFFERED this option to begin with. How many times does this need to be explained to you? I believe you are a smart person . . . but all of the arguments you are making here are dumber than a lobotomized pet rock.

    Comer Pyle is a coward and Gym Jordan is a cuck and advocate for sexual predators.

    If the GOP has the goods, why are they afraid of letting the President's son incriminate himself and/or his Father?

    Hint: it's because Comer and Gym have nothing and they know it.

    Hunter's bank records have already been discussed by the panel. If Comer wasn't willing to let Hunter testify publicly (which is already dumber than a sack of hammers), then he shouldn't have offered. Y'all's failures are not our fault.

    Because depositions come first where questioning can be much more detailed and followed up. Why should he only have to face the 5 minute public questioning which would be turned into another spectacle by the Dems as we witnessed today?

    Cry me a ****ing river. After 4 years of the GOP and mango mussolini giving the American people the middle finger, all I can say is what rightists said after combover Caligula won the election in 2016.

    **** your feelings.
