Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News
Friday, March 17, 2023

Fox News anchor John Roberts questioned Rep. Byron Donalds (R-FL) about the ongoing investigation conducted by the House Oversight Committee regarding alleged payments that Hunter Biden and at least two other relatives received from an associate linked to a Chinese energy company. Roberts asked Donalds, "Where is the evidence of illegality here?." Donalds responded, "Well, it's not so much about illegality. That remains to be seen. Let me put that on the side because again, we still have to go through the full investigative process." The latest findings in the investigation allege that a Joe Biden associate received a wired transfer of $3 million that could be tied to Beijing two months after Biden left office as vice president[1]. Recently, House Oversight Chairman James Comer (R-KY) has attacked Trump-appointed U.S. attorney David Weiss.

It's important to thoroughly investigate any potential conflicts of interest or unethical behavior, regardless of whether or not there is evidence of illegality. The House Oversight Committee's investigation into the Biden associate's connections with a Chinese energy company and a suspiciously large payment warrants further examination.

It's also worth considering the motivations behind Chairman Comer's attack on Weiss. Casting doubt on the legitimacy of the findings could be seen as an attempt to deflect attention away from the ongoing investigation and protect those implicated.

Try to keep an open mind regarding the current investigation. While the investigation has raised questions about potential conflicts of interest and unethical behavior, it's important to remember that there is currently no evidence that any laws were broken.

Additionally, Chairman Comer's actions could be seen as an attempt to ensure that the investigation is conducted fairly and without bias, rather than an attempt to cast doubt on the legitimacy of the findings.

The evidence of a large payment from the Chinese energy company is circumstantial and may not necessarily be indicative of any wrongdoing. It's important to consider all available evidence and to not jump to conclusions.

It's important that the investigation is allowed to proceed with due process and impartiality to determine whether any laws were broken, or if there was any unethical behavior or conflicts of interest involved. More evidence is needed to come to a definitive conclusion, and we should remain open-minded as the investigation continues.

What's that expression? "Weak tea"?

I'm glad to play this by the books, for the sake of impartiality and justice.

Too bad that none of the three aforementioned virtues is anything the Republican Party believes in.

What Republicans Will Do If They Win The House, In Their Own Words (October 2022)

..."We're not investigating Hunter Biden for political reasons," Rep. James Comer (R-KY), who is poised to chair the House Oversight Committee in the case of a GOP flip, told TIME this month. "We're investigating Hunter Biden because we believe he's a national security threat, who we fear has compromised Joe Biden."

Comer then quickly told on himself, adding: "The Hunter Biden investigation is slowly becoming the Joe Biden investigation."...


So the Republicans seems to have shown their hand...

That the Hunter Biden investigation is really going to end up as the Pres Biden investigation, even before they have collected any evidence to follow where the evidence leads...

typical over reaction from the 'clientele.'

calm down....

the rest of the statement reads...." Donalds responded. "That remains to be seen. Let me put that on the side because again, we still have to go through the full investigative process."

it's that old democrat dodge BS called " on going investigation" while the democrat media looks the other way.

Why would the GOP agree to unilaterally disarm and 'play it by the books' when the Democrats have shown a willingness to weaponize the DoJ? It would be a ridiculous expectation. What will happen is a highly partisan investigate meant to smear and hopefully indict whether justified or not - exactly what the Dems have done the last decade.

The best part will come in 2024 with the re-election of Trump and a complete disregard for the rules of decorum ...which will end the deep state along with the multi-decade corruption of the Dems and Neocons.

...
My imagination wants to see
The vivid colours of reality
There's a place out there beyond my grasp
A revolution in a looking glass
I've got to get this problem off my chest
I'm sick and tired of being second best
I'll rearrange my credibility
A fundraiser for a restless sea
...

Cool tune. :)

Claudio means that he will be highly entertained at the wailing of the Left when their tactics are used against them after they have been warned repeatedly that this will happen.

- weaponize the DoJ?

You're funny when you cry.

Especially when the DOJ has been very careful and fair, and you have no real evidence otherwise.
