Republicans make last-ditch request for Biden to testify as impeachment inquiry winds down

[Dulcinea]

WASHINGTON (AP) — The House impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden is all but winding down, lacking the political appetite from within the Republican ranks to go forward with an actual impeachment, but facing political pressure to deliver after months of work.

The chairman of the House Oversight and Accountability Committee, Republican Rep. James Comer, made a last-ditch push at Wednesday's hearing, announcing he will seek testimony from Biden himself, saying the Democratic president was either “complicit or incompetent” in his son Hunter Biden's business dealings. It's highly unlikely Biden would appear before the committee.

“We need to hear from the president himself,” Comer said at the close of the nearly eight-hour hearing.

The White House told Republicans to “move on” and focus on “real issues" Americans want addressed. “This is a sad stunt at the end of a dead impeachment,” spokesman Ian Sams said. “Call it a day, pal.”

3. Doesn't the President have Presidential immunity?

Such as having Seal Team Six take out Comer and his family?

4. Have they NOT been paying attnetion?!

Biden should show up just to fuck with them.
'I'm not gonna answer that question on the grounds that the Supreme Court hasn't yet said I DONT have complete immunity.'

He will get re elected on that one afternoon by itself...

5. Perfect response: The White House told Republicans to "move on" and focus on "real issues"

Exactly what needed to be said. I hope they emphasize what isn't getting done.
