A new transcript from a key Hunter Biden witness undercuts many of the claims Republicans are making about “Biden corruption.”
The House Oversight Committee on Tuesday released the transcript of the testimony of Kevin Morris, a friend of and attorney for Hunter Biden, and his statements undercut everything Republicans have said about the embattled first son.
Morris is a high-powered entertainment lawyer in Los Angeles who met Hunter at a 2019 presidential fundraiser for his father, Joe Biden. Morris has loaned Hunter nearly $5 million in the years since. He testified about his relationship with Hunter in a closed-door committee hearing last week.
Initially, Oversight Chair James Comer just released a list of paraphrased highlights from Morris’s testimony. Comer claimed that Morris informally loaned Hunter the money and does not expect to be repaid until after the 2024 election—or possibly ever. But the transcript shows this couldn’t be further from the truth.
In reality, Morris never once mentioned the possibility of forgiving the loans. Instead, he said he has a “100 percent” expectation that Hunter will repay him, and repeatedly states that he and Hunter have a series of promissory notes agreeing the younger Biden will pay back the money.
why are we supposed to care about this? is it worth spending hundreds of millions of dollars in man-hours to achieve… whatever it is?
is this a butteryemails thing that wont die because conservatives have no real agenda and love to waste government resources?
Bingo.
I don’t know… Loans without expectations of repayment to someone who doesn’t work in the government??? Lies or not, I reserve that kind of behavior for my Supreme Court Justices, not some random guy who has zero impact on my daily life!
