REPUBLICANS ARE SET TO INTENSIVELY INVESTIGATE THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION: They are making it clear that their real target is the president, not his son. From BizPacReview:
As Democrats and their corporate media allies have been gearing up for the inevitable defense of President Joe Biden’s son Hunter during the new Congress, incoming House Oversight Committee chair Rep. James Comer (R-KY) made one point abundantly clear, Sunday, “We’re not investigating Hunter Biden. We’re investigating Joe Biden.”
Republicans are officially in charge of the House of Representatives, have elected a speaker and are set to proceed with promised investigations this week. As such, NBC’s Chuck Todd framed the inevitable efforts as partisan when Comer joined him on “Meet the Press” Sunday morning.
“It looks more partisan than professional,” he said before asking how, if at all, Comer looked to negate those perceptions, prompting the congressman to fire back, “I think the only people that see this as a partisan investigation are the media and the hardcore Democrats.”
“Look, at the same moment that the Democrats on the Ways and Means Committee released Donald Trump’s taxes they then, moments later, turned around and said that Comer’s investigation of the Biden family influence peddling is a revenger,” the Kentucky lawmaker proceeded.
Going on to cite a Harvard poll that said 65 percent of Americans believe the contents of the laptop from hell should be investigated, Comer expressed, “Let me be clear. We’re not investigating Hunter Biden. We’re investigating Joe Biden.”
The Oversight Committee leader went on to frame his position by calling out Democratic complaints over former President Donald Trump having family like his son-in-law Jared Kushner working in his administration and explained, “I think any American who has kept up with the political process over the past two administrations would agree, we need to know what is allowable and what isn’t allowable with respect to foreign adversarial intervention among family members of presidents of the United States.”
COMMENT: Let the gladiators out of the gates. This will be fun, but it will also be critically important. The mainstream media will not investigate the Biden empire, and the houses of Congress have both been in Democratic hands since Biden was sworn in. Now the GOP controls the House of Representatives, and with it the vast investigative power of Congress. For the first time we'll get a good look at Biden, Inc. Will it knock the president out of the race? Stay tuned.
