Reminds me of the porno cases heard by SCOTUS in past decades. According to former law clerks, a very good source, justices spent many hours locked in their offices viewing the offending material—much more time than the fabled “reasonable person” would need to decide what is porn and what is not. :biggrin:

Speaking of "ignant" and "financially iterate," those aren't typos.

CALL TO ACTIVISM @CalltoActivism wrote: BREAKING: A visibly heated James Comer gets defensive when discussing accusations that he used a shell company for undisclosed business deals with a donor…

…the same accusation he’s making against the Biden family.

"The media continues to attack me," Comer whined on Fox News.

"They're here in my little town as we speak in Kentucky trying to dig up stuff, trying to say I have a shell company, my LLC has a lot of assets….

They continue to just make stuff up. Not only are they attacking me, Trey, they're making stuff up to try to discredit me as an investigator!"

Comer is accused of hiding a six-acre land deal with a donor that the AP uncovered he failed to provide details about in his financial forms.

Comer’s appearance on Fox was one of the first since he swore off "Fox & Friends" because Steve Doocy fact-checked him.

What are your thoughts? Do you think Comer is a huge HYPOCRITE?
You'll be amazed to learn that he is lying about the definition of a shell company.

A shell company is a business that's created to hold funds and manage another entity's financial transactions.

Mr Comer, how is Joe Bidens impeachment doing?

Hunter Biden business associate tells Oversight Committee President Biden was 'never involved' in Hunter's business dealings
Hunter Biden wanted a "clear boundary," Walker said in his opening statement.

Rob Walker, a longtime business associate of Hunter Biden, said in a closed-door interview on Friday with the GOP-led House Oversight Committee that President Joe Biden "was never involved" in Hunter Biden's business dealings, according to Walker's opening statement obtained by ABC News.

"To be clear, President Biden -- while in office or as a private citizen -- was never involved in any of the business activities we pursued. Any statement to the contrary is simply false," Walker said in his opening statement.

Walker added that the president's son "made sure there was always a clear boundary between any business and his father. Always. And as his partner, I always understood and respected that boundary."

During the interview, Walker submitted the statement to the record and read it verbatim, a source familiar with the matter told ABC News.

In his opening statement, Walker also expressed concern that his words would be taken out of context by House Republicans.

Well go figure.

Steve Doocy: "You know the odd thing, James Comer who ran the committee apparently left the hearing early and did not ask a single question. How weird is that?"

By not being there he can claim that he hasn’t heard Hunter refute his (Russian handlers) claims.

Huh. And why might you think that is, Einstein? Could it be because there is no there, there?

Tsk tsk tsk ... and your committees were unable to force the government to disclose the number of such investigations, which department conducted any, and what results they found? Where is your subpoena power :?: :?: :?:

PS. wasn't once Louis Buller Gohmert Jr. (R-TX) once considered the worst of the House? Comer is by far more successful in that respect :cantlook:

Parnas calls out GOP rep at hearing for ‘doing the bidding’ of Russia

BY SARAH FORTINSKY -
03/20/24 2:32 PM ET

Lev Parnas, a convicted former aide to Rudy Giuliani, named members of Congress on Wednesday he alleged were “doing the bidding” of Russia by attempting to dig up “dirt” on President Biden during his 2020 campaign.

At a GOP-led House Oversight and Accountability Committee hearing titled “Influence Peddling: Examining Joe Biden’s Abuse of Public Office,” Parnas named Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) and Rep. Pete Sessions (R-Texas) during his testimony as collaborators in their efforts.

The accusation came in response to ranking member Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.), who asked Parnas how he and Giuliani were “able to take these false allegations, peddled by corrupt officials and Russian agents, and promote and amplify them here in the United States, in our political system.”

“Weren’t media groups skeptical of your claims?” Raskin asked.

“Most media groups — I’d probably say all, except for Fox and a few other right-wing media groups — didn’t want to take any of the information, and that aggravated Rudy Giuliani and John Solomon and other players,” Parnas said. “And the main group that it was being pushed through was Fox — Sean Hannity and some other media personalities over there.”

“But then there was also other people that were doing the bidding for the Russians — people in Congress, like Sen. Ron Johnson, like Congressman Pete Sessions, who sits here right now,” Parnas said, gesturing toward the Texas congressman, who sits on the committee.

Sessions, Parnas continued, “was with me from the very beginning on this journey, into finding of the, giving dirt on Joe Biden.”

A spokesperson for Johnson fiercely refuted the accusation as “completely baseless” and a “despicable lie.”

“There is nothing in Senators Johnson and Grassley’s reports on Biden family corruption that has ever proven to be untrue,” the spokesperson said. “Anyone who ties Senator Johnson’s legitimate and accurate oversight work to Russia is amplifying a despicable lie that Democrats spread in 2020 to discredit the senator’s work and protect Joe Biden.”
