Two House committees voted to approve a contempt of Congress citation for President Biden’s son after he made a surprise appearance on Capitol Hill, prompting bitter partisan fighting.

The day began with a dramatic twist: the unexpected arrival of the younger Biden, who has repeatedly offered to testify publicly in the impeachment inquiry but refused to be interviewed behind closed doors, in the Oversight Committee’s hearing room. Democrats and Republicans immediately began bickering about whether to allow him to be heard.

    They made such a big deal about how “he didn’t show up”.

    It’s beyond me how none of them thought that he wouldn’t show up to show them up at the most inconvenient, for them, point in time.

    Like you can tell, whoever is running that show is only thinking in five minute increments. And Hunter Biden, whoever is advising him, has next season already in mind.

    I was actually shocked that this sort of stunt by Biden had not already been planned for. And that their Johnny on the Spot, fake it till we make it was basically a Jerry Springer episode.

    They made such fools of themselves that day. That could not have gone better for the Democrats.
