To be fair to the report all those names seem to be lawyers not Congress critters. We know if names known MAGAts will threaten them
Why would the magats threaten their own lawyers? I don’t think it’s unreasonable to know who is doing the questioning.

Why didn't Hunter hold out until he had a public hearing?
Unless it’s Joe Biden, there isn’t anyone else that can set the terms of testimony. It’s standard to interview in private before doing a public hearing. And I think he just wanted to get it over with.

While what you said makes perfect sense, we're talking about MAGA people here, so sense goes right out the window. Remember, many believe Hunter should be in prison for like 20 years, so in their minds he's a legit mega criminal. Since he's not going to prison, I could see MAGAts attacking the prosecution for not getting the job done. In their minds, this should have been a slam dunk. And now they'll gonna all be furious and need somebody to blame when Hunter walks. Half the blame will be on the evil Dems who control everything (apparently...) and every GOP lawyer in this case will become a scapegoat for not getting the easiest job in the world done. A MAGA on YT told me that the entire Biden family should be locked up, yes even Jill. And that they're far worse than even the Gotti family. How do you even respond to something that crazy? lol

The Rumbling from them on YT is that Hunter's finally about to get served justice after this hearing. As he was exposed in the hearing and now the entire world knows he's a top shelf criminal. I will give them some credit as I'm sure not a single one actually read any of the transcripts lol. To them Hunter on the stand is enough for a prison sentence.

Meanwhile when anyone brings up their savoir and his crimes, they all reply "HAHAHAHAHAH what crimes? NAME ONE! I know you can't" Apparently, because he hasn't been convicted he can't be guilty of anything. Forget the trials haven't even happened yet. Using that logic every person in jail hasn't committed a crime until they go to trial and are convicted. Hunter? He was the most guilty person ever based on some Laptop that nobody even knows what's on it exactly. And a gun he bought by lying on the application. And some shady business deal with China that doesn't appear to even have been shady. And Trump's 91 felony charges are all made up nothingburgers.

Back in Jan or December the committee scheduled Hunter Biden for a private hearing. In advance he repeatedly refused to come unless it was public. The GOP refused to have it public. On the day of the scheduled private hearing Hunter showed up on the steps of the Capitol and gave an extensive press conference covering much of what he expected to testify about. He then went to the room the committee was in while they were debating to find him in contempt for failure to appear, said I'm here and ready immediately if it is public. The GOP refused so he left.

End result was the GOP committee critters looked like bumbling incompetent fools engaged in a witch hunt.

I'm sure he did fine but he would have done his cause and his father's cause both better by sticking to his guns. Private hearings permit "leaking" of grossly distorted testimony and outright lying by Congress critters trying hard to justify what they are doing.

Hunter gun case done and gone to jury deliberation. It would be hilarious if it takes them more than 2 days to come with verdict as compared to the orange monkey hush money case

No it would be hilarious if it takes less than 2 days and they find him innocent. I'm not saying Hunter didn't do something illegal, but in the scope or things it was minor. He's gotta be the 1st American to go to trial for this.

The MAGAs are already certain he will be found innocent. They weren't even happy when Joe came out and said he wouldn't pardon Hunter if there was a guilty verdict. Which seems solid to me, but according to MAGAs he only said that because he already knows Hunter will be found innocent. They have inside information and know this trial's rigged just like Trump's was.

MAGAs sure know a lot for how dumb and uneducated they are.

Say if Hunter is found guilty on the gun charge..

So that would seem to me that we would need stronger gun laws???

Actually MAGA guys I know are pretty consistently against people with a criminal record having guns and I assume surrendering them once convicted.
What they didn’t think thru is what about the Former President and *if* his gun nut Son gets convicted.

I think it means an appeal based on his 2A rights being infringed. Should be amusing to see SCOTUS calvinball their decision (once it gets there).

No, it would just mean we need the DoJ to similarly prosecute this same gun law against every single one of the other 25,000,000 Americans (and that's based on a self-reported drug use rate, very low-range estimate) that have regularly used illegal drugs while in possession of a firearm...

Joe Biden who masterminded the prosecution of Trump in NY state has convicted his own son of a felony. Lol.
Poor Hunter had the misfortune of encountering the one courtroom in the entire country that isn’t rigged. What are the odds?
