Hunter Biden creates chaos in the House of Representatives

Hunter Biden made an unexpected appearance Wednesday in the middle of a House Oversight Committee session. The president's son, who has refused to testify behind closed doors before the various House committees investigating the Biden business dealings, caused chaos after his new act of defiance to Congress.

Hours after his appearance in the House building, after a long session, both the Judiciary Committee and the Oversight Committee approved resolutions to hold Hunter Biden in contempt of Congress. It is expected that in the next few days the vote will be taken to the full House of Representatives, where Republicans hold a majority.

If the resolution is approved, it will be in the hands of the Justice Department to prosecute. However, given all that has happened in recent months with the Biden family, very few believe that the Justice Department will actually take action. In fact, Hunter Biden's defiant attitude, showing up whenever he wants and ignoring Congressmen at will, shows that the president's son feels confident to disobey Congress because he probably knows that Joe Biden's Justice Department won't do anything about it.

The House Oversight Committee session, where they discussed whether to hold Hunter Biden in contempt of Congress, was interrupted by the unexpected appearance of the president's son, who was not scheduled and suddenly burst into the session to sit for a few minutes in the front row. Hunter arrived in the company of his lawyer Abbe Lowell and Kevin Morris, one of the main buyers of his paintings and who is currently making a documentary about Hunter.

The session discussed the approval of a resolution that recommends Congress charge Hunter Biden with contempt for failing to respond to the subpoena that forced him to testify before the Oversight and Judiciary committees last December. On the day of the subpoena, in an act almost as defiant as the one we saw today, while committee members were waiting for him in the House building, Hunter decided to give public statements outside the Capitol instead of attending the hearing.

Political stunt

For some, Hunter's strange appearance at a meeting, where he was not scheduled, is nothing more than a political stunt. Hunter seems to be playing the victim card. In his statements outside the Capitol in mid-December, he stated that he had had a long battle against his addiction and that his family had always helped him. He also assured that the investigations carried out in the different committees were political persecution against his father.

His defiant arrival today at the session where they were discussing whether to hold him in contempt, as expected, particularly angered several congresswomen who addressed the president's son directly to express their annoyance. Congresswoman Nancy Mace said upon seeing him sitting in the room: "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. Hunter Biden should be arrested right here, right now and go straight to jail," the congresswoman added.

Minutes after arriving in the room, just as Republican Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene was being given the floor, Hunter Biden, in another defiant and inexplicable movement, stood up from his chair and left along with his companions. To which the congresswoman tells him: "Excuse me Hunter, apparently you're afraid of my words."

Biden's brief and strange appearance, provoking reactions from congressmen, possibly aims to distort public opinion, make viewers believe that he is willing to appear but only if the statement is public, and try to show the cameras heated comments from some republican congressmen to promote their idea that it is a political persecution and present Congress as a circus.

Revealing exchange?

Hunter's short appearance also left a revealing exchange with a Fox News journalist . As Biden left the building, the journalist walking next to him asked him why he put his father - President Biden - on speaker when he had calls with his business partners, to which Hunter responded by asking if she doesn't talk to her father by phone.

Immediately, social media and political commentators raised their voices, asking if, in that exchange, Hunter had just acknowledged that his father, President Biden, did participate in the calls about business he had with his partners.

Finally, after the brief exchange, Hunter tells the journalist: "You are very dangerous."
