It is such a blatant farce that even Fox News has reported on the GOP&#8217;s shameless inability to produce any facts to support their smear campaign&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><strong>SEE THIS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=59248\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">WHOA! Peter Doocy of Fox News Reports that the GOP Failed to Find Any Evidence to Impeach Biden<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>On Tuesday morning the Republicans held a hearing to debate the Impeachment inquiry proposal. It was predictably devoid of any substance that would justify either an inquiry or an impeachment. However, it was chock full of asinine arguments by Republicans trying desperately to defend their dimwitted determination to destroy Biden. And leading the pack was GOP Rep. Guy Reschenthaler, who sought to rationalize the alleged <em>&#8220;transparency&#8221;<\/em> of a process that Republicans have been insisting be conducted behind closed doors. He GOP-splained that&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;They&#8217;ve continued to update. Not just Chairman Comer, but Chairman Jordan, Chairman Smith. They&#8217;ve been on TV&#8230;You can&#8217;t turn on a news program without seeing one of those three updating the American people on this. So to say that we&#8217;ve come up lacking in transparency is laughable.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Reschenthaler says the investigation has been very transparent because you can\u2019t turn on a tv without seeing James Comer or Jim Jordan appearing on cable news <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/RKj3g6KkGl\">pic.twitter.com\/RKj3g6KkGl<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Acyn (@Acyn) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Acyn\/status\/1734614616641302549?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">December 12, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s right! It was all above board because recidivist liars like James Comer, Jim Jordan, and Jason Smith, are frequent guests on Fox News and Steve Bannon&#8217;s War Room. They actually believe that that sort of perpetual media presence is how congressional business is supposed to be conducted. They have adopted the Trump perspective of Reality TV being de facto reality.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, what Reschenthaler is describing is precisely why the Republican plans are preposterous and intolerable. They are hoping to hold the hearings in private, and then only reveal on right-wing television programs what they claim took place. They will, of course, deliver grossly biased distortions of reality in their TV appearances. And they will mischaracterize whatever <em>&#8220;evidence&#8221;<\/em> they choose to present. This is the same process they previously proposed for deposing Hunter Biden&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><strong>SEE ALSO: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=59129\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">GOP and Fox News Oppose Public Testimony By Hunter Biden Because Then They Can\u2019t Lie About It<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This isn&#8217;t conjecture. Republicans have already demonstrated that <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=57681\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">they will brazenly lie about testimony given in private<\/a><\/strong>. That tendency was noted by Democratic Rep. Mary Gay Scanlon, who responded to Reschenthaler&#8217;s nonsense saying that&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Mr. Reschenthaler is absolutely right. The three chairs of the committees conducting this sham impeachment inquiry have been all over the news. On Fox, on Newsmax, every night, mischaracterizing what they\u2019ve found. Mischaracterizing what witnesses have said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;And that&#8217;s why it&#8217;s important that, if this is to go forward, the American people will be able to judge for themselves. There&#8217;s a pattern and practice at this point of the Republican majority hiding what&#8217;s going on, only cherry-picking the evidence that they want to move forward. Disregarding when it&#8217;s contradicted, even by their own witnesses.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Scanlon: Mr. Reschenthaler is absolutely right.
