Senate Republican: Coronavirus response has 'hampered' Hunter Biden investigation
The Hill ^ | 04 15 2020 | Marina Pitofsky

Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) said in a new interview that he is planning to release a status report on an investigation into Hunter Biden and Ukraine gas company Burisma Holdings this summer, adding that the coronavirus pandemic has hampered his committee's efforts.

“We’re in the process of writing different sections of the report that I’d like to make public sometime this summer,” Johnson, the chairman of the Senate Homeland Security Committee, told Politico. “But obviously, [the coronavirus] has not been helpful and hampered our efforts.”

Johnson said that committee staffers have been examining documents provided by the State Department and the National Archives. Some of the documents include information from the Obama White House, another central part of the investigation, according to the news outlet.

“I’ve got staff that have been devoted to that and they’re working on that stuff from home,” Johnson said.

“We — and I — can walk and chew gum at the same time here. This is not taking up massive amounts of staff time,” he added.

“We — and I — can walk and chew gum at the same time here."

Can you?

The report will be released this summer. What will it contain? Proof of corruption or 'nothing to see here'?

Excuses, excuses.

Collegial courtesy will sweep this under the rug.

NOTHING stands in the way of ruthless Democrats investigating anything.

Republicans? 'We'll look into it'

Yes, can't have anyone upsetting the status quo. We'll just keep washing each others hands during this corona crisis.

They know how to play the game. Hit fast and hard. Throw as much dirt as you can to blind your opponent who then can't counter a defense.

They're pros.

Republicans never see the train even after it hit 'em.

If it’s all they know how to do, I guess they better be GOOD at it. :)

They wouldn’t know class or intelligence if it fell on them from the 10th story!

Ultimately,the greatest killer of this country will be the GOP that does nothing to protect and defend the Constitution from ALL enemies. Total worthless party of p*ssies. Is that harsh? Prove me wrong.

I don’t think anyone in the Senate really wants to start pulling at the threads of nepotism in government. They’ll make noise about it and wring their hands for the cameras, but that’s about it.
