The House Judiciary Committee will hold a vote later this week on whether to find President Joe Biden‘s ghostwriter in contempt of Congress, a source familiar confirmed to the Washington Examiner.
The committee is set to vote during a panel markup on Thursday on advancing the contempt resolution after Mark Zwonitzer failed to comply with a subpoena seeking access to records related to a book he worked on with the president that may have involved classified material. If approved, the measure would be brought to the House floor for a vote referring the matter to the Justice Department for prosecution.
“Zwonitzer continues to withhold all documents and materials in his possession that are responsive to the subpoena from the Committee,” the resolution states. “The materials requested from Zwonitzer are crucial for the Committee’s understanding of the manner and extent of President Biden’s mishandling and unlawful disclosure of classified materials, as well as Zwonitzer’s use, storage, and deletion of classified materials on his computer.”

Robert Hur found during a yearlong investigation that Biden had inappropriately disclosed classified information to Zwonitzer during the book-writing process.

House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH) wrote in the letter to Zwonitzer’s attorney Louis Freeman that Freeman had provided no materials the committee requested and that objections he had raised with Jordan’s subpoena were “unfounded.”

Via Breitbart:
In February, Biden was questioned during a White House briefing about why he had shared classified information with his ghostwriter.
Mr. President, why did you share classified information with your ghostwriter?” a reporter asked
Biden responded, “I did not share classified information. I did not share it.”
The reporter then questioned, “With your ghostwriter?”
“With my ghostwriter, I did not,” Biden answered. “Guarantee you, I did not.”
During a House Judiciary Committee meeting in March, Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) questioned Special Counsel Robert Hur about Biden’s statement, to which Hur admitted that Biden’s comments were “inconsistent with the findings.”
“Hur admitted that Biden’s comments were ‘inconsistent with the findings.’”
They sure twist themselves into pretzels to avoid saying “he lied.”
