It was political theater at Wednesday’s House Oversight and Accountability Committee with #HunterBiden making a surprise appearance. #Republicans have highlighted Biden’s business deals in an effort to tarnish his father, who himself faces an impeachment inquiry. Democrats, meanwhile, have pointed out that #Republican members ignored subpoenas from the #January6 Committee. Rep. Jared Moskowitz (D-NY) has suggested the panel hold a vote on hearing from #Biden “right now,” asking for a show of hands from the room.

Hunter Biden has offered instead to testify in a public setting, and delivered a statement to the press outside the Capitol rather than attend the deposition, saying his father “was not financially involved in my business.”
