Hunter Biden Only Willing to Testify in Public Before House Committee
[Breitbart] Hunter Biden is willing to testify before the House Oversight Committee on December 13, his lawyer said Tuesday — but only in a public hearing.

Hunter Biden would be a key witness in the House’s impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden, pending the committee’s approval.

Abbe Lowell, Hunter Biden’s lawyer said his client would only be willing to testify in a public setting but not behind closed doors as the committee asked:

  • We have seen you use closed-door sessions to manipulate, even distort the facts and misinform the public.
  • We therefore propose opening the door. If, as you claim, your efforts are important and involve issues that Americans should know about, then let the light shine on these proceedings.
  • Mr. Biden will appear at such a public hearing on the date you noticed, December 13, or any date in December that we can arrange.

    House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer (R-KY) replied to Lowell via X Tuesday morning:

  • Hunter Biden is trying to play by his own rules instead of following the rules required of everyone else. That won’t stand with House Republicans.
  • Our lawfully issued subpoena to Hunter Biden requires him to appear for a deposition on December 13.
  • We expect full cooperation with our subpoena for a deposition but also agree that Hunter Biden should have opportunity to testify in a public setting at a future date.

    House Republicans subpoenaed both Hunter and James Biden in their probe of the president. James Biden is reportedly in communication with the committee about the subpoena.

    #1 He will likely never be forced to testify. I suspect "National Defense Security" risks or reasons will eventually be sited.

    Ghislaine Maxwell to the white courtesy phone please. Ms. Ghisline Maxwell.

    #2 Problem with testimony before House Committee is that each Rep has only a specified time to ask questions. Each Democrat Rep will simply praise Biden or something for their 5 minutes and there will be no continuity.
