Still smarting from Democrats' protracted fight to get Donald Trump's private tax records, House Republicans are planning to turn the tables and fight for secret bank records showing the timing of suspicious foreign payments to Hunter Biden in hopes of determining if any such proceeds made their way to President Joe Biden. Rep. James Comer (R-Ky.), the incoming chairman of the House Oversight Committee, told Just the News that fighting the Biden administration for access to some 150 Suspicious Activity Reports (SAR) filed by banks concerning Hunter Biden's financial transactions would allow investigators to determine to what extent, if any, Joe Biden benefited from his son's foreign influence peddling. "This isn't a fishing expedition," Comer told the John Solomon Reports podcast this week. "We have every reason to believe that Hunter Biden was paying for living expenses for Joe Biden, a significant amount of living expenses. And we want to verify that." Comer said the pursuit is ripped from the Democrats' playbook…. https://justthenews.com/accountability/russia-and-ukraine-scandals/house-gop-plans-turn-tables-trump-tax-return-fight-track And now what was a Trump hunting episode based on Russian misinformation becomes a pursuit of Biden Sr. Based on his sons own very real records. This will be interesting to see play out. I see impeachment in let’s go Brandon’s future.
What a Tinfoil Hat Kook (like Comer) has "Planned" and WHAT Actually Happens are 2 Different Things... That said, feel free to get back to everyone when Comer's Hare-Brained Scheme is actually implemented... Thx in advance...
The investigation is warranted. It will be done in a dignified and professional manner. There is much on the lap tops to explore.
Where can we go and find that information? I'd like to see his tax returns. And of course when you're laundering money you wouldn't necessarily declare it on your taxes or you use some sort of shell corporation or something.
Let’s play the politics of revenge during a period when the government is marking time. Myself, I don’t give a damn if Trump or Biden get indicted. We need a leader who would throw all that garbage in the bin, and that’s not Trump.
The willingness of the Republican Party federal legislators to do their utmost to heal the red/blue divide in our nation is remarkable. Regards, stay safe 'n well.
In other words, Republicans confirm that they are not opposed to corruption in general, but only when they can use it as a cudgel against their political opponents just like the Democrats already did. But then again, both parties have confirmed this multiple times in the past in other situations so there are no surprises here.
Unlike democrats, Republicans can walk and chew gum at the same time. The House will pass bills regarding every serious issue out there and pass a budget in regular order. The efforts at investigations and oversight will be 10% of time and effort while reform and passing legislation will be 90%. Every reasonable effort will be made to reconcile with senate bills in conference.
Heres the difference between Trump supporters and Americans: We Americans want to root out ANYONE who is doing wrong, illegal or benefiting from their office. If you can track that money to Joe, then I’m all on on prosecuting him. But when it comes Joe Biden, Hunters laptop cant be used for anything. The chain of custody requires that it cannot be used as a source of truth on anything
Trump and his supporters think that not getting caught telling a lie is the same as telling the truth. Trump and his supporters think that not being convicted of a crime is the same as being honest. Trump and his supporters think that running out the clock on an investigation is the same as being acquitted. Trump and his supporters think that political revenge is politics. They all dwell in a smellier and deeper Swamp than was ever created in Washington DC.
Bi-partisan infrastructure bill, bi-partisan CHIPs bill, bi-partisan same sex marriage protections, historic levels of employment, allowed drug price negotiations… Look at what all republicans did the last time they had control — shut down the government the most number of times.
Yup... Strictly Partisan PETTY "Revenge"... Although, with such a Razor-Thin Margin, it will only take a few SANE Members of the GOP Caucus to thwart the Blatant Idiocy of the Jordan, Comer, Greene crowd...
But the cons and Trump supporters here assure me that all Republicans are in lock step to oppose the Democrats and anything Biden. If they don’t vote with the herd then they’re RINOs and will be cast out.
