I mean, the Republicans will just say he altered the recording anyway, even if they do that two. As usual, there will be two accounts of the story.
I wonder if he agreed because he and his lawyer negotiated the right for him to record the deposition; at the very least to have it video-recorded and an unedited copy of the recording given to him right away.
The purpose of a closed door deposition is to keep sensitive information out of the public.
The Trump kids had to appear behind closed-door depositions many times. I think Don Jr. had to be deposed 5 times.
Would you have given him the same advice you are giving Hunter?
If you could point to even one example of the Democrats pulling shit like this:
…then, yes.
Please note, this is at least the second time Comer has pulled this stunt. He has lost any claim to a presumption that he is honest.
Republicans keep sensitive information in their bathrooms. I suppose sometimes they close the door.
Sure. Remember when Trump Jr tweeted that he did have meetings with Russian agents during the 2016 election? Why wouldn’t we want to know what he blathered behind closed doors to a friendly audience?
Wait… that was a trick question, wasn’t it?
Hunter never worked in the administration. What sensitive information could he have?
Beat me to it. Not only has Hunter never worked for this administration but he has never worked in ANY government job. It is unlikely in the extreme he has or has ever had access to any sensitive information other than being able to provide testimony showing Comer, Jordan and the house GOP are full of shit.
Maybe he has dick picks of secret agents on his laptop. Did you even think about that?
Yes – in this case, the “sensitive information” is that this investigation is based on lies and only intended to politically harm Joe Biden. Having that in public could even further damage the (already minimal) credibility of the GOP House committee.
Hunter will have to testify that VP Biden met and even shook hands with “foreigners.”
The 5 million Comer keeps listing never got anywhere near Joe.
I know where they could find 7.8 million, but they just won’t see what’s right in front of their eyes.
The purpose of the closed door deposition is that the Republicans will cherry pick what is made public and twist that information to make the Bidens look guilty. Plus, if nothing incriminating is revealed, they get to sit on that information.
Just like what they’ve done with that laptop.
Not, unfortunately, among the True Believers.
Sounds like the House GOP should be preparing their next “We got him now!!” Release momentarily:
Comer, Jordan, et al … really kind of suck at this.
There. I said it.
Ummmm. Walkers denial PROVES that Joe Biden knew everything! His very denial proves the opposite! It’s opposite day! Ha ha, gotcha!
“Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence!”
Walker’s denial isn’t going to change much; he’s considered right at the center of the corruption, the “middle man” between the Biden family and communist china or whatever.
But hopefully at least one MAGA-head might ponder why they cannot make people like Walker flip, what with all that totally real and damning evidence they have.
Kind of reminds me when I was at a chess club meeting my freshman year in high school. A couple games down I heard, “Ha! Checkmate!” (counter move) “Checkmate!” (counter move) “Checkmate!” (counter move, silence while the shouter ponders his next move)
