Not defending Hunter Biden here but i want Republicans and Trump loyalists to give an honest opinion here:

@whowasthatmaskedman

Well that's what it seems like when they're so unwilling to make the testimony public.

@whowasthatmaskedman Spot on! They don't want the truth to be made public, only their version of it.

@Bumbles

That's the vibe. But i wonder how the other side justifies it

@Pikachu They are shameless cultists.

@Bumbles

And like cult members everywhere, they don't see that they are being manipulated.

@softspokenman Transparency is for honest people.

@softspokenman

lol yeah i agree, that's probably not their priority...

@ChipmunkErnie

Well that seems to be the fear from Hunter anyway.

@Pikachu Although, as the motorcycle riding senior citizen from Florida pointed out, the Democrats have also held closed-door hearings. I think every hearing should be public unless it's dealing with classified information.

However, the inquiry into Hunter isn't a search for the truth, it's political performance art.

@LeopoldBloom

The concept of a closed-door hearing is not one i necessarily find problematic. The utter refusal to allow it to be public is the strange part.

@Pikachu In most cases, it's not an issue.

@LeopoldBloom And whqt good is that going to do? And you trust that "download"?

@DiegoWolfe I hadn't thought about that possible twist.

@samueltyler2 I just find people too trusting of things provided by "authority"

@sunsporter1649

Woops. I said you need to be a big boy. That means words, not pictures, mmkay?😉👍

@Pikachu One picture is worth a thousand words

@sunsporter1649

Especially when the poster hasn't the wit to come up with the words😂😂😂

@BigImo

Sacks of shit can be well educated, true lol

@Pikachu Yes that is they way they are up there, democrats have closed door hearings so they can control the information and leak what they want to make the other side look bad and republicans do exactly the same thing, open your eyes.

@Subsumedpat

Maybe i'm just unaware. Can you think of any cases where a Republican agreed to give testimony but only if it was in public and the Democrats flatly refused?

@Pikachu I have not clue how many hearings a year they have but some are closed and some are not so that has likely happened, Not that it matters if they want to have a closed hearing they can.

@Johnson212

Who cares if he preaches to make himself look better? The public will not be trying his case.
I don't think that's a valid reason.

@Pikachu Really, so you think witnesses should decide for congress what kind of hearing congress has. Hunter Biden refused to comply with lawful subpoenas requiring he appear for a deposition. Meanwhile, Hunter Biden has shown he has no problem showing up on Capitol Hill to engage in political stunts. Democrats want the hearing public so they can turn it into a circus in front of the cameras. This has happened before.

@Johnson212


Not at all. As i stated initially this is not a defense of hunter Biden's choice, only a question about the motivations which would cause such an utter refusal to have the proceedings be public.


Wouldn't such an aversion be rather hypocritical given the last 8ish years of such performances from a certain high-ranking member of the Republican party? Or given that certain female republicans keep holding up printed out pictures of Hunters naked body?
lol

My point being that the Republican party is not against political spectacles so no, i don't consider that to be a particularly valid reason either...

@LordShadowfire

lol i don't know, man. We'll see if they even want to comment.

@Pikachu Yeah, we'll see.

@LordShadowfire

Hopefully they do!

@Pikachu And I just now realized I answered this post twice, lol.

@LordShadowfire

Well i answered you twice so....
lol
