Hearing goes off the rails when former Hunter Biden business partner calls Jamie Raskin a liar to his face

March 20, 2024 | | Print Article

A congressional hearing heated up when Hunter Biden’s former business partner ripped into Democrat lawmakers for lying to protect the Biden family.

Tony Bobulinski named names in his fiery opening statement before the House Oversight Committee on Wednesday, calling out Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md., and Rep. Dan Goldman, D-N.Y., who responded by trying to interrupt his remarks.

“We keep hearing from certain corners that our ‘democracy is at risk’ and that ‘democracy is on the ballot in 2024,’ yet the same people preaching this mantra, who know better, continue to lie directly to the American people without hesitation or remorse,” the former Biden family business associate said in the impeachment inquiry hearing.

“Rep. Dan Goldman and Jamie Raskin, both lawyers, and Mr. Goldman a former prosecutor with the Southern District of New York, will continue to lie today in this hearing and then go straight to the media to tell more lies,” Bobulinski declared.

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R., Ky.) shot down efforts by the Democrats to stop Bobulinski’s remarks, telling them it was inappropriate to interrupt a witness.

“Hunter Biden’s defense attorney, Abbe Lowell, weaponizes letters to Congress to try to smear my name and misstate the cold hard facts in an attempt to save his powerfully connected client – and his father,” Bobulinski continued.

He delivered a scathing rebuke to those who have been “assassinating” his character and expressed his disgust with the “world of partisan outrage.”

“I challenge Mr. Lowell to make those claims on national television so he can be held accountable for his lies. The Biden defenders’ outrageous dishonesty and vile attempts at assassinating my character are as predictable as they are disgusting,” he said.

“As a former Naval officer, I do not understand this world of partisan outrage and insanity; I struggle to process it, and I despise it,” he declared.

Before he began, Bobulinski snarked about Hunter Biden not appearing at the hearing.

“Though the truth involving the deep corruption of the Biden family, including the malfeasance of the sitting president of the United States, might be raw and unpleasant, the American people must hear it, can handle it, and have the right to process it as they choose,” Bobulinski told lawmakers in his opening statement as he called out the Biden crime family.

“You are presented with two narratives in this investigation: A false one being pushed by Joe Biden, a serial liar and fabulist now under this impeachment investigation for public corruption; his brother Jim Biden, a 75-year-old man who cannot keep his lies straight, including under oath; and his son Hunter Biden, a chronic drug addict facing two indictments with twelve counts,” he continued.

“You also have before you the truth, confirmed by multiple Biden family business partners over many years and backed up by mountains of irrefutable evidence, including text messages, emails, documents, and recordings,” Bobulinski offered.

“I hope the American people will pay close attention to this hearing,” Bobulinski added. “I also hope they will understand that some members of this Committee will engage in absurd attacks and efforts to try to deflect attention from the facts I will present today by questioning my integrity, my patriotic duty to my country and my sole focus on simply telling the truth.

“Don’t fall for their disingenuous smokescreens and gaslighting,” he said. “You may see me speak passionately at this hearing, but for good reason: not only was I willing to die for this great country, every single male member of my immediate family was willing to die for this country.”
