The U.S. Home of Representatives contempt listening to for Hunter Biden shortly spiraled uncontrolled after Hunter Biden confirmed as much as testify and Republicans couldn’t deal with the stress. Their objective has been to solely enable him to “testify” whereas hidden from the general public so they might do what they’ve performed with different witnesses, which is to cherry-pick quotes to current an inaccurate and, at instances, utterly false narrative.
This led to 2 Southern Republican Representatives bizarrely specializing in Hunter Biden as a sexual being, together with Nancy Mace mentioning his balls and Marjorie Taylor Greene justifying her Hunter revenge porn obsession.
Consultant Nancy Mace (R-SC) appeared very confused throughout the Wednesday Home listening to, as she punctuated her outrage at Hunter Biden by mentioning his balls and white privilege. She adopted this up with a seemingly clueless rant about how the legislation ought to apply to everybody, as we notice that your entire Home Republican caucus is devoting itself to defending Donald Trump from the legislation.
Mace: You’re the epitome of white privilege, coming into the oversight committee, spitting in our face, You don’t have any balls to come back up right here and —
Moskowitz: We are able to hear from Hunter Biden proper now
Mace: Are girls allowed to talk?!? Hunter Biden must be arrested proper right here

Republicans apparently consider in white privilege, however solely after they can weaponize it in opposition to Hunter Biden, very similar to they consider in girls’s rights however solely after they can weaponize it in opposition to Hunter Biden, very similar to they consider within the rule of legislation, however solely after they can weaponize it in opposition to Hunter Biden. You get the image.
Right here comes Consultant Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) making an attempt to justify her obsession with shoving Hunter Biden revenge porn onto People by way of CSPAN:

It’s past bizarre that the occasion that may’t cease speaking about drag queens ruining kids is out right here on CSPAN turning yet one more Home listening to right into a present about Hunter Biden as a sexual being.
Think about for a second if Consultant Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez used a U.S. Home listening to to shriek at Donald Trump, Jr that he had no balls, adopted by say Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi raging on about how she was proper to share revenge porn of Donald Trump, Jr. — on CSPAN, no much less.
This stage of hypocrisy is predicted when a celebration is merely utilizing tradition warfare points to cover the truth that their insurance policies cater to the elite. They maintain their voters from trying below the hood by raging in opposition to cultural change.
After which there may be this level: “Finest a part of that is @RepNancyMace oozing with phony sanctimony as she says what’s at stake is whether or not the legislation applies to the privileged. The overriding mission of just about your entire Republican Celebration proper now’s to make sure that the legislation doesn’t apply to Trump,” Greg Sargent identified on Twitter.
After all, Republicans didn’t truly wish to hear from Hunter Biden. They’re afraid of Hunter Biden talking in public, and that is why we acquired Nancy Mace screaming about Hunter Biden’s balls and Marjorie Taylor Greene as soon as once more speaking about the way it’s completely wonderful for her to share her Hunter Biden porn stash with all People on CSPAN, completely associated to the bogus costs they’ve cooked up in opposition to a personal citizen who’s already coping with the DOJ going after him with extra vigor than they’d another citizen for a similar costs, in an try and ensnare his father, Donald Trump’s political rival and present president.
Rep. Jared Moskowitz, “Who desires to listen to from Hunter proper now right now? Anybody? Come on. Who desires to listen to from Hunter? Nobody. So — I’m a visible learner. And the visible is obvious. No person over there desires to listen to from the witness — oh, one, thanks.” pic.twitter.com/eJUpFSibwg
