“They have ridiculed my struggle with addiction. They’ve belittled my recovery. And they’ve tried to dehumanize me!” Hunter said of House Republicans.
“They have tried to dehumanize me to embarrass and damage my father, who has devoted his entire life to public service.”
“For six years I have been the target of the unrelenting Trump attack machine shouting ‘Where’ Hunter?’ Well here’s my answer. I am here.”
“Let me state as clearly as I can; my father was not financially involved in my business, not as a practicing lawyer, not as a board member of Burisma, not my partnership with a Chinese private businessman, not in my investments at home or abroad and certainly not as an artist,” he said.
“I am here to testify at a public hearing today to answer any of the Committee’s legitimate questions.”
“In the depths of my addiction, I was extremely irresponsible with my finances, but to suggest that is grounds for an impeachment inquiry is beyond absurd. It’s shameless.”
“There’s no evidence to support the allegations that my father was financially involved in my business because it did not happen,” he added.
