    Isn't bragging a form of lying too?

    Sure and the 1/6 insurrectionists were harmless.

    A. Hunter Biden can afford it.
    B. It is his prerogative, and a prudent move on his part. He is showing he can think and breathe at the same time, unlike another object on this forum.
    C. It has nothing to do with hiding something. It is about protecting his Constitutional rights under the law. Remember, Trump has pleaded the fifth numerous times while in a deposition on many occasions. He uses this answer all the time. Does not mean he is guilty of anything, just he is exercising his rights.

    I refuse to accept your redefining the term riot.

    lying by omission is just the same as lying by commission. Do you know the difference?

    So What about "Expensive move"?
    Hunter has money to burn...
    So, he might as well hire lawyers...

    Might get costly as it drags on. Big guy may need to make some more deals.

    The Tea Party? You're in the wrong decade. Trump/TeaParty is like comparing apples to oranges.

    Did Jared Kushner not retain Abbe Lowell prior to his appearing before the Congressional committee also?

    If only a reporter snarkingly referred to him as such when he was called on for a question.

    Biden: The reporter from CNN, it's your turn (or so my cheat notes say).

    Reporter: Thanks Big Guy! When will you . . . ?

    A failed deflection but a pretty good flail however.

    It's a smart thing to do. WITNESSES in the 1/6 hearings hired lawyers.

    Yep. Pops has been bailing him out since he was a kid. It explains why he ended up being a crack head. Plus you have that one phone call where he tells his son he has nothing to worry about with the story coming out about him (the details escape my memory). Nothing in that phone call where he might have put a fix in, but then that would shoot the plausible deniability out of the water if he was more detailed in the phone call.

    Oh good Gawd. What's sad is that you actually believe this nonsense.

    Ohh, you want to stick to the gaslight then. Yeah, Kushner did claim he was shakin' in his Saudi booties.

    Hunter probably called kusher to see how he dealt with the pressure and guilt.
