The FBI agent in charge of the Bureau’s investigation into Hunter Biden told the House Judiciary Committee that he never heard anything close to what two IRS agents claimed in testimony touted by committee Republicans regarding US Attorney David Weiss saying he couldn’t bring charges against the President’s son, the Washington Post reports based on a transcript of the agent’s testimony it obtained.
The previously undisclosed testimony directly contradicts one of the key charges Republicans have claimed for their contrived impeachment: that political pressure prevented Weiss from filing more serious charges against Biden. On the day when Speaker pro tem Kevin McCarthy said House Committees would start impeachment investigations into Joe Biden–although there was no vote taken in the House and no evidence of a crime presented to the public–the revelation that the committee received additional exculpatory evidence against the GOP claim paints the impeachment charade as the political theatre it is.
