GOP Won’t Charge Hunter with Contempt of Congress Just Yet – Update
IndependentSentinel ^ | 12/13/2023 | M Dowling

Posted on 12/13/2023 4:19:46 PM PST by Dacula

This article has been updated, and the headline has been changed. The title was “Rep. Comer will hold Hunter Biden in contempt of Congress,” but we had to change the title. Sadly, the GOP caved for now. They’ll try to get him in again and then might look at contempt.

All that means is the pantywaists won’t provide their votes for contempt.

I don’t think they caved so much as strategically held their fire. They’ll issue a new subpoena based on the formal impeachment inquiry vote, which will leave him with no legal cover for refusing.

The Stupid Party fails to do anything about Meat Puppet’s son, career criminal, and family bagman. That, of course, is the pile of human debris known as “Crackhead” Biden.

I’m already starting to lose faith in Mike Johnson. The RINO’s in the House will never allow anyone decent to be speaker. The entire party is corrupted.

Your stupid knee jerk reaction is laughable.

The Republicans just unanimously voted on impeachment inquiry giving greater investigative powers to subpoena that is Constitutionally protected.

Patience grass hopper…

R’s in Congress have no bones in their bodies whatsoever. Brazen Dems know they have nothing to fear from the GOP.

“The house recedes”. That is their line by line mantra.

Well one democrat didn’t show up for the vote. THey are already claiming the vote is invalid since the clause says a vote by the full house.

I know it’s BS, but the media will cover for them.

GOP is continuing the fine tradition of speaking loudly and carrying a teeny tiny, barely precipitable twig

They don’t have the votes.

And in 2025 they will be down to the 180-190 range again.

I believe that this move is strategic in that the GOP will be on far stronger legal and political ground chasing after Hunter and much else in the now pending impeachment inquiry authorized today. I do not expect Biden to survive and be a candidate for reelection next year.

Even if, as expected, the Democratic Senate declines to act on the near certain impeachment of Joe Biden, the facts adduced and made public will be devastating. For the sake of political survival in 2024, the Dems are likely to push Biden out and insert a new candidate as their nominee. Yet such a process will be prone to a level of uncertainty, turmoil, and risk likely to make 2024 an Annulus Horribilis for the Democrats.
