He was just a spectator. He came on his own and left on his own.

The subpoena that he ignored was for a closed door hearing and not this one. This one today was to basically vote to hold Hunter in contempt for brushing off the subpoena. That's why this move by Hunter was such a fuck you to the committee.

It was a public hearing and he was not asked to be there. It is not a hearing that he was supposed to be there or one where he was expected to answer any questions.

I had wondered why the oversight committee was hellbent on the closed door hearing instead of taking the offered open hearing. Maybe some of you did too. Finally heard a good explanation, open hearings each member is limited to 5 min, which as we've seen before leads to rambling speeches and limits real opportunity for answers. Also gives way to showy sound bites from Dems knowing it will also be on lamestream news. Lasts 1 day and again, could be a waste.

Closed door meetings are not thus limited and can go on for days, so it's considered more likely to get answers because you're not excused until until there are satisfactory answers. I see this as a big deal for this instance.

An absolute coward and cheat like his father if his business was legitimate he would've dealt with her. Barry told him if gets hot leave.

It would not surprise me in the least if Trump pulls in 20-25% of the black vote in 2024. Republicans in the past were happy with 10%. He's gonna get a lot more.

And then when leaving, someone blurted out:
"Hey, are you on crack today"?

I would have thought most around here would know about this guy, but... That's his sugar brother Kevin Morris.

I think they want to wait until the Dem. convention to tell Joe he's not running... but events and health may overcome that desire.

I find this whole thing well beyond amusing.
"They" keep telling everyone how unprecedented and outside the "norms" all things Trump were/are, but it's REALLY rare to replace a presidential candidate at a brokered party convention.

Is Biden Gay?

Fun Fact - Biden isn't even on the 2024 NH Presidential Primary Ballot! Excluding 'Vermin Supreme' (the guy w/ the boot on his head) who you 'might' have heard of, and Marianne Williamson who you've probably heard of, there's NOBODY you've EVER heard of is on the ballot! Further, the only Democrat campaign signs I've seen ANYWHERE in the state are for Marianne Williamson, so yeah, well beyond amusing!

Hunter Biden Pleads Not Guilty To Federal Tax Charges

https://www.zerohedge.com/poli...-federal-tax-charges

World-renowned painting legend and crackhead hooker-connoisseur, Hunter Biden, pleaded not guilty to federal charges that he failed to pay taxes on millions of dollars in income from foreign businesses - even though he previously agreed to settle the case in a preferential wristslap plea deal with the DOJ - in a case that Republicans hope will bolster the impeachment of his father, Joe Biden.

The president’s son entered his plea Thursday in Los Angeles (the case is US v. Biden, 23-cr-599, US District Court, Central District of California), where he may face trial this year as his father seeks reelection in a rematch with Donald Trump, who himself is the target of a Soviet-style witch hunt orchestrated by Biden's activist, weaponized Department of "Justice." Trump, who himself was arrested four times, points to the business affairs of Hunter Biden as evidence the presidential family is corrupt.
