House Oversight Committee Chairman, James Comer, presided over the panel as it considered whether to hold Hunter Biden in contempt of Congress for failing to comply with a subpoena.<\/p>\n<p>For the record, Hunter did accept the Committee&#8217;s original request to appear for questioning in a public session. But then Comer reneged and insisted that a deposition be given behind closed doors. The only plausible reason for that change was so the GOP could spread lies about what occurred in the media before any transcripts were available.<\/p>\n<p><strong>SEE THIS: <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>However, a funny thing happened on the way to the GOP&#8217;s circus. Hunter Biden sauntered into the hearing room and took a seat behind the witness table. His appearance created quite a stir among the Republican members, who weren&#8217;t particularly happy to see the target of their smear campaign confidently confront them as they conspired to slap a phony contempt charge on him.<\/p>\n<p>Democratic Rep. Jared Moskowitz, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Acyn\/status\/1745105191987249276\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">challenged the nervous GOP members<\/a><\/strong> to take advantage of this opportunity and invite Hunter to take their questions right on the spot. They declined. Moskowitz also <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NewsCorpse\/status\/1745146997294924253\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">entered into the congressional record<\/a><\/strong> the subpoenas of several Republicans (Scott Perry, Mark Meadows, Jim Jordan, Mo Brooks, Andy Biggs, &#038; Kevin McCarthy) who all failed to comply with lawful subpoenas, but whom the GOP was not seeking to hold in contempt.<\/p>\n<p>Naturally, The Republican&#8217;s Ministry of Disinformation, aka Fox News, stepped up to bolster the false narrative that Hunter was noncompliant. Fox News host, Harris Faulkner, interviewed a former assistant district attorney, Phil Holloway, and led with her suggestion that Hunter should be immediately placed under arrest. She did not get the response that she was likely hoping for.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Faulkner:<\/strong> Can they go arrest him at this point? As one of the congress-people called for, I believe it was Nancy Mace today?<br \/>\n<strong>Holloway:<\/strong> Yeah. I don\u2019t know of any mechanism to do that. There\u2019s no rush for&#8230;<br \/>\n<strong>Faulkner:<\/strong> For bucking the subpoena. They can\u2019t go get him?<br \/>\n<strong>Holloway:<\/strong> Yeah. I mean, you gotta have, see the committee, it\u2019s not like a court where if he shows &#8211; if you don\u2019t show up for court, the judge can issue a warrant for failure to appear and send law enforcement to bring you in in handcuffs. Whether they have such a process, I don\u2019t know, but, I think they\u2019ve got to go through the subpoena process and excuse me, the the contempt process first.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Fox anchor perplexed why Hunter Biden can&#39;t be arrested right now<\/p>\n<p>Faulkner: &quot;Can they arrest him at this point?&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Guest: I don&#39;t know any mechanism to do that<\/p>\n<p>Faulkner: For bucking the subpoena, they can&#39;t go get him?<\/p>\n<p>Guest: This is not like a court. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/jYPkSXBo7z\">pic.twitter.com\/jYPkSXBo7z<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Lis Power (@LisPower1) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/LisPower1\/status\/1745120311492702225?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">January 10, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Faulkner&#8217;s hunger for Hunter to be arrested was ludicrous.
