 House GOP releases Hunter Biden contempt resolution
by Emily Brooks - 01/08/24 10:47 AM ET
The House Oversight and Accountability Committee on Monday released the text of a resolution to hold Hunter Biden, the president’s son, in contempt of Congress for defying a subpoena to appear for a closed-door deposition as part of the House GOP’s impeachment inquiry into President Biden.

The brief resolution directs the Speaker to refer the contempt report “to an appropriate United States attorney, to the end that Mr. Biden be proceeded against in the manner and form provided by law,” and it calls on the Speaker to “otherwise take all appropriate action to enforce the subpoena.”

The Oversight and House Judiciary panels are scheduled to hold markups Wednesday morning to consider the contempt resolution, which Oversight Chair James Comer (R-Ky.) and Judiciary Chair Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) had promised to move forward on after Hunter Biden did not appear for a Dec. 13 deposition.

Hunter Biden had offered to appear in a public hearing, with his legal counsel arguing House Republicans would misrepresent closed-door testimony and pointing to a previous statement from Comer saying witnesses could come in “depositions or committee hearings, whichever they choose.”

Garland will ignore any Contempt referrals, just like Eric Holder did.  One can take that to the bank.
For unvaccinated, we are looking at a winter of severe illness and death — if you’re unvaccinated — for themselves, their families, and the hospitals they’ll soon overwhelm. Sloe Joe Biteme 12/16
I will NOT comply.

He is doing more damage to the US as Attorney General than he could ever have done as a SCOTUS Justice.
