Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez defended Hunter Biden’s decision to ignore a subpoena and refuse to testify behind closed doors, stating that the committee has not allowed any first-hand witnesses to testify publicly and has not called a single witness to their allegations.
She described the situation as “just storytelling.”
“It’s also important to note, that not only is the committee not allowing Hunter Biden to testify publicly, but they have not called a single witness, a single first-hand witness to any of their allegations,” Ocasio-Cortez said. (Trending: Joe Biden Impeachment Formalized As Republicans Unite)
“They haven’t allowed anybody to testify publicly, because they do not have a single witness to any of their alleged allegations. They don’t.”
“We have asked virtually every single person that has come to testify for this committee, ‘Have you seen, witnessed, participated, in a room, anything with first-hand testimony of any of what is being alleged?'” And every single witness that they have called before us has said, ‘No, I haven’t seen anything, didn’t hear anything, wasn’t party to anything,” Cortez added.
“So this is just storytelling at this point.”
