GOP Caves, Will Not Vote To Hold Hunter Biden In Contempt After He Ignored Subpoena

Wednesday has been an eventful day on Capitol Hill, but not for the reasons Republicans would have hoped. Hunter Biden was supposed to show up for a subpoenaed deposition. Instead, he held a surprise press conference and then thumbed his nose at Congress. Rep. James Comer, who heads the investigating House Oversight Committee, promised immediate retribution, including a vote on holding the president's on in contempt of Congress. That would be consistent with how Democrats treated witnesses like Steve Bannon for ignoring congressional subpoenas. Unfortunately, the GOP caucus has caved, deciding to instead try to renegotiate an appearance by Hunter Biden while Republicans move ahead with a vote on officially opening an impeachment inquiry into Joe Biden.
