Hunter tells a whopper

Hunter Biden was deposed yesterday before the Oversight and House Judiciary committees behind closed doors.. He made several nuanced statements:

In an opening statement distributed to the media, Hunter accused House Republicans of spreading “baseless and MAGA-motivated conspiracies” about his father’s role in an array of foreign business relationships and insisted he “never” involved President Biden “in my business” — despite what Republican investigators say is substantial evidence to the contrary.

Hunter’s denials have continuously evolved over time as the GOP exposes evidence contrary to them. Within an hour House democrats were outside lying about the testimony.

The top Democrat on the House Oversight Committee claimed Wednesday he was “not aware” of any meetings President Biden had with his son Hunter’s foreign business associates — despite overwhelming evidence, including sworn testimony, to the contrary.

But facts are pesky things.

All day Hunter and his lawyers were trying to drive a square peg into a round hole but there was one really outstanding piece of testimony. Hunter sent a Whatsapp message to Communist Party official Henry Zhao demanding that Zhao send him $5 million.

When questioned about this, Biden defended himself this way:

‘Hunter admitted that he was high or drunk when he sent the “sitting here with my father” WhatsApp message, sent it to the wrong recipient, and is now embarrassed by the message,’ a readout of his testimony recorded.

Seriously.

Oddly, the “wrong recipient” sent him the $5 million within 10 days.

But within 10 days of his threatening message, $5.1 million flowed from the Chinese firm CEFC to Biden-linked accounts, according to information in a 2020 report by Republican-led Senate committees.

So this of course fires up a few questions for the public hearing.

• Why would the “wrong recipient” send you $5 million?
• Who was the right recipient?
• You received $5 million. Why are you embarrassed?
• Doesn’t this sound like extortion?
• For what were you given $5 million? What was your business? What did you do to earn this money?
• What was your father going to do if you weren’t paid?
• What were the Chinese expecting in return?
• That message doesn’t read as though it come from a drunk or a crack infused individual. Care to comment?
• Why would your father permit you to accompany him on Air Force 2 to China and meet with dubious Chinese businessmen knowing you are a drunk and crack addict?

This event is like a mirror of Joe Biden’s extortion of Ukraine. The acorn really doesn’t fall far from the tree.

The public hearings are going to be great fun.
