Republican representative James Comer, the chair of the House Oversight Committee, appeared
on Fox News on Sunday where he pleaded with the United States Justice Department to not,
to not indict Hunter Biden before Mr. Comer has the opportunity to hold another press
conference.
Because according to James Comer, he and his Republicans in Congress, they've just been
compiling all sorts of evidence of crimes for Hunter Biden and really the entire Biden
family, but they're not gonna tell us about it until Wednesday.
And according to reports, the DOJ may go ahead and indict Hunter Biden on gun charges before
Wednesday.
And James Comer just thinks that's the worst thing that could possibly happen.
Here's what he said.
He was asked by host Maria barter Bartiromo.
He, she said, what if they decide to indict Hunter Biden for having a gun illegally before
your press conference?
and James Comer responded, my message to the Department of Justice is very loud and clear.
Do not indict Hunter Biden before Wednesday when you have the opportunity to see the evidence
that the House Oversight Committee will produce with respect to the web of LLCs, with respect
to the number of adversarial countries that this family influence pedaled in.
This is not just about the President's son, this is about the entire Biden family, including
the President of the United States.
And by all accounts from the media reports that we're getting, what they're looking at
charging Hunter Biden on as a slap on the wrist, it's a drop in the bucket.
So Wednesday will be a very big day for the American people in getting the facts presented
to them so that they can know the truth.
Now, let me go ahead and say a couple things about this, uh, Mr. Comer, first and foremost,
if you have this evidence that you say you have, why are you waiting?
Like, what would you, I mean, you, you can do a press conference today, so why, why wait
till Wednesday?
Why be like, uh, Monday's no good?
Tuesday's a little rough for me.
I got lunch plans.
How about Wednesday America?
How about Wednesday?
I come out with this damning information that will lead to the impeachment of the President
of the United States.
I'd do it earlier, but I'm a busy guy.
Yeah, if you really had what you say you had, I'm pretty sure you would want to get that
info out there immediately.
But let's say, okay, you're busy, right?
The start of the week is just chaotic for you and you can't do it till Wednesday.
I get that.
What does the DOJ charging Hunter Biden before Wednesday have to do with what you're gonna
announce on Wednesday?
Like, do you legitimately think that the Department of Justice is only allowed to indict everybody
on like one crime and that's it?
Like, oh no, we already got him on the stupid thing.
We could have waited and had him on the big thing, but oh no, it, we can't add more charges.
That's against the law.
Like
That's not a thing.
You idiot, if you have legitimate evidence and the DOJ for some reason hasn't gotten
it yet, and I'll get to that in a minute, then they could just be like, oh, crap.
Yeah, we, we should probably go ahead and add this to it too.
We'll investigate it and we'll charge 'em some more.
And the third part is if you actually had evidence of criminal wrongdoing, you wouldn't
be holding onto it in your little hope chest.
You would, uh, you would've shared it with the doj.
Like if you have what you say you have, the DOJ would've already had it because you would've
said, Hey, by the way, we have all this evidence.
It would be foolish for us to just hold onto it ourselves because we're not a charging
body and we can't do anything with it.
So why don't we give it to the people who can.
So you see there's three different RA ways that I just blew up your whole little talking
point.
Oh, don't do it before Wednesday.
We've got stuff to do.
No, you don't.
You really don't.
If you had evidence of criminal wrongdoing, you would've been working with the DOJ for
the last few months.
Now I say all that and it's important to say this as well.
I don't care if you have evidence to indict Hunter Biden because he committed crimes,
indict him.
If you have evidence of President Biden breaking the law, impeach him, I don't care.
I will not lose a second of sleep if either of those, those men go to jail for committing
crimes.
I don't care.
But we also have to look at this realistically, that if Republicans had a big file of crimes
on these men, we would've already known about it a long time ago.
We wouldn't have to wait several more days for a press conference for them to spell it
out, cuz it would've already been done cuz they would've run in front of a camera the
very first time they thought they had any evidence at all.
That there were crimes committed.
