Today’s show is a full recap of yesterday’s IRS whistleblower sworn testimony before the House Judiciary Committee. While the Republicans seemed focused on getting facts out to the American people, the Democrats were doing all they could to avoid any relevant topics and to throw shade. The only Democrat who stepped in it was Rep. Dan Goldman (D-NY) who blew it so badly, even Jonathan Turley wrote a piece about it.
To start, we look at some of the comments from Democrats in the Committee. Rep. Kweisi Mfume (D-MD) seems to believe we are something other than a Constitutional Republic. In his mind, the DOJ, the FBI and the IRS are there to help keep us all in-line. Not sure what form of government he think we are, but that’s not it.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez wanted to focus on climate change, the gun debate and equity. The one thing she did mention in which I am in total agreement is in getting US Attorney David Weiss in front of the Committee.
Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) played cute and tried to make it look as those the IRS whistleblowers represented the overzealous Javert, who persecuted the poor, innocent Jean Valjean, when he evoked Les Miserables. In his mind, Hunter Biden is being needlessly persecuted by over-the-top IRS agents.
But, the devastating moment came from Rep. Dan Goldman (D-NY) who tried to be cute and make it look like Joe Biden didn’t know about his son’s business dealings with CEFC China Energy. Instead, he ended up implicating Joe Biden as being keenly aware of his son’s business dealings – something Joe has denied since before the election. So much for that line of defense moving forward.
Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ) did get to another point of how Hunter claimed a hotel room expense for his dad as a business expense. So, either Hunter lied on his taxes and tried to claim a business deduction that wasn’t true. Or, he was telling the truth and Joe Biden was involved in yet another business dealing with Hunter. Either way, it’s bad.
Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL) decimated the coordinated effort by Democrats to co-opt the two-tiered system narrative. While Democrats bemoaned the inequity of IRS audits happening to more black and brown people, Luna pointed out that those same Democrats were bending over backwards protecting a privileged white man!
Rep. Byron Donalds (R-FL) reminds us the investigation did not start with Hunter Biden. However, now that it has moved to him, there is over $17 million dollars of known transactions that have flowed from Ukraine, China and Romania into the Biden Crime Family.
Finally, in a beautiful exchange between Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) and IRS Agent Gary Shapley that as soon as “Main Justice” was contacted, the entire investigation came to a grinding halt. Jordan also suggested the need to get AG Garland, US Attorney Weiss and other top Justice officials before the Committee to help explain the shift in the investigation. As Senator John Kennedy (R-LA) states, for Garland, it’s like he’s flushed the toilet and the water is suddenly rising. He’s got a serious problem on his hands.
