Rather than follow the lawful subpoena for a deposition issued by Chairman @RepJamesComer, Hunter Biden decided to play circus outside the Capitol this morning.

“Hunter Biden refusing to show up today is unacceptable,” Greene said.
“President Trump’s own children sat for hours and hours, seven, eight, nine hours each of them in front of Democrat-led committees. Why is it a double standard for the Biden family?”
“Hunter Biden clearly is trying to hide and cover up the money laundering and the abuse of power that he and his father are guilty of.”
“What do you make of this press conference he had outside the front of the Capitol?” one reporter asked.
“Oh, I mean, he’s obviously guilty,” Greene said.
“He went out there in front of the press and spread all of his lies, but he wouldn’t come in here under oath. That’s someone that is clearly trying to hide the truth from the American people.”
“We were even willing to bring cameras in here for him today, but he refused to show up.”
“He went out and played the show in front of the circus and then refused to come in here and follow the law, which he absolutely should do.”
“Hunter Biden today defied lawful subpoenas and we will now initiate contempt of Congress proceedings. We will not provide special treatment because his last name is Biden. As our committees were today prepared to depose Hunter Biden, he chose to make a public statement on Capitol Hill instead,” the Republican committee leaders stated.
“Today, the House will vote on an impeachment inquiry resolution to strengthen our legal case in the courts as we face obstruction from the White House and witnesses.”
“Today’s obstruction by Hunter Biden reinforces the need for a formal vote. President Biden and his family must be held accountable for their corruption and obstruction.”
Additionally, evidence of tax fraud and overseas business deals has led to substantial legal challenges for the Biden family.
Despite President Biden’s denial, the situation has deeply affected him and his aides.
