President Biden declined to appear before House impeachment investigators, writing in a Monday letter through an attorney that the investigation “is over.”

Though brief, the letter tears into the impeachment investigation being led in part by House Oversight Chair James Comer (R-Ky.), which has yet to uncover any wrongdoing by President Biden.

“Your Committee’s purported ‘impeachment inquiry’ has succeeded only in turning up abundant evidence that, in fact, the President has done nothing wrong. Yet rather than acknowledge this reality, your March 28, 2024, letter contains the same litany of false allegations that have been repeatedly debunked and refuted by the very witnesses you have called before your Committee and the many documents you have obtained,” Richard Sauber, special counsel to the president, wrote in a letter to Comer obtained by The Hill

“Your insistence on peddling these false and unsupported allegations despite ample evidence to the contrary makes one thing about your investigation abundantly clear: The facts do not matter to you.”

3. Meanwhile Rs are professionals at ignoring subpoenas

6. Yes in republican world,

subpoenas are strictly voluntary, if of course you are a republican. Did they really think there wouldn't be repercussions some day? The system only works if everyone is playing by the same rules.

8. time to chime in

After more than 5 years away, having departed in total disgust with DU's descent into a cult of group-think, I simply want people to take a deep breath before we all witness the coming collapse you've been true trailblazers for. [go ukraine, ya]

11. WH to Comer, essentially: "Time to pull up your fishing pole and go home, turd."

Comer and Co. didn't find anything in their first two fishing expos, so they want more, because something's just gotta be there. That laptop with the made up BS said so, after all.

Yeah, like Hillary sat through eight, count'em EIGHT, Benghazi hearings, suspiciously timed to be right before elections, because they wanted to

1.) Not find anything substantive

2.) Waste time and money

3.) Score cheap political points

4.) 5.) 6.) etc., etc., etc. (add your own reasons here)

[Bayard]

12. Any time now.....

Orange Jesus will hold forth about Biden getting off for his crimes, while he is crucified.

13. Comer Pyle is scrambling because the election is just around the corner

He and Gym Jordan need to have results for their billionaire donors. That's why they sent them there.
