Hunter Biden on Wednesday morning made an unexpected appearance at an Oversight Committee hearing considering whether he should be held in contempt of Congress.
House Republicans were evidently surprised to see the president’s son in person at the Capitol Hill meeting, which comes after GOP lawmakers accused him of refusing to comply with a subpoena last month for a closed-door deposition related to their impeachment inquiry into his father. Noticing Biden had entered the room, Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) asked: “Who bribed Hunter Biden to be here today?”
Addressing Biden, Mace erupted with a verbal tirade: “You are the epitome of white privilege coming into the Oversight Committee, spitting in our face, ignoring a congressional subpoena to be deposed. What are you afraid of? You have no balls to come up here.”
