Hunter Biden (3 Viewers)

Hunter Biden is negotiating to be deposed by Republicans. I’m guessing he will insist on the transcript being public. Comer will have to issue a new subpoena as well.

This is why Hunter didn’t want to testify behind closed doors. Comer consistently lies about the testimony when that happens. He’s only released two transcripts so far, he’s dragging his feet about releasing them so he can lie longer.

There is no question that nearly anyone would be lucky to have a friend like Kevin Morris. The California entertainment lawyer made millions representing actor Matthew McConaughey and “South Park” creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone. He’s used that money, in his telling, to support a youth center in the blue-collar Pennsylvania town where he grew up and to support friends in moments of need. The kind of support where he’d pay for someone’s house down payment.

Probably no friend has benefited more from that generosity than President Biden’s son Hunter, according to Morris. The attorney paid for Hunter’s California house, bought the younger Biden’s art and helped pay off outstanding tax obligations. For doing so, he was summoned to Washington to participate in a closed-door deposition led by House Republicans eager to find evidence implicating Hunter Biden — or, more important, his father — in wrongdoing.

After the deposition, House Oversight and Accountability Committee Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) released a statement suggesting that Morris had offered information that was deeply problematic for the Bidens. It read, in part:

“Kevin Morris’s massive financial support to Hunter Biden raises ethical and campaign finance concerns for President Joe Biden. Shortly after meeting Hunter Biden at a Joe Biden campaign event in 2019, Kevin Morris began paying Hunter Biden’s tax liability to insulate then-presidential candidate Joe Biden from political liability. Kevin Morris admitted he has ‘loaned’ the president’s son at least $5 million. These ‘loans’ don’t have to be repaid until after the next presidential election and the ‘loans’ may ultimately be forgiven. Since Kevin Morris has kept President Biden’s son financially afloat, he’s had access to the Biden White House and has spoken to President Biden. This follows a familiar pattern where Hunter Biden’s associates have access to Joe Biden himself.”

Morris’s lawyer, Bryan Sullivan, quickly sent Comer a letter condemning the legislator for misrepresenting the testimony — a letter that certainly comported with Comer’s past practice but that was hard to evaluate on the merits given that no transcript was available.

On Tuesday, the transcript was made public. And Sullivan’s criticism of Comer was very much proved to be warranted.

The Morris-Hunter Biden relationship is not one that would be familiar to most people. But in his response to questions from House members and committee staff, Morris explained how he came to consider the younger Biden a friend and quickly agreed to similarly serve as his legal counsel.

Both men, Morris said, had experienced addiction. Both came from the same community. Both had Irish Catholic family backgrounds.

“I had a very tribal feeling about Hunter,” Morris told the committee. “He’s a guy. I have brothers. He’s from close. He was in a lot of trouble. … I basically found him like a guy getting the crap beat out of him … by a gang of people. And, you know, where we come from, you don’t let that happen. You get in and you start swinging.”

The two met in late November 2019 at a Biden fundraiser, as Comer noted, but only cursorily. A few weeks later, Morris testified under penalty of perjury, Hunter Biden reached out for legal advice about an unidentified entertainment issue. The two talked for hours, establishing the bond Morris describes above.

“That was a very profound meeting,” he said during the deposition, “and it was, you know, one of the most important meetings of my life.”

A bit later, Morris began loaning Hunter Biden money. In his testimony, he makes clear that this wasn’t simply passing cash to Hunter Biden. He met the president’s son only months into Hunter’s sobriety, and soon after the younger Biden had been pulled by Donald Trump’s Republican allies into Trump’s first impeachment inquiry. This was the period when Trump would demand “Where’s Hunter?” during campaign rallies, with the result that Hunter Biden became the focus of an enormous amount of unwanted attention. Hunter’s wife was pregnant, Morris testified, and his safety was at risk. So Morris did what he testified he often does, pulling together a team to help Hunter Biden move forward. He found a house in a private neighborhood and paid the rent directly. He hired security. He paid off overdue payments on a car so that Hunter could return it.


The payments, Morris testified, were to third parties (including, eventually, the IRS) and were memorialized by separate attorneys in promissory notes. Those notes included interest requirements and payment deadlines beginning in 2025. More than once, Morris and Sullivan rejected the idea that he “gave” Hunter Biden money, and Morris more than once said he expected the president’s son to pay the money back.

Morris did testify that he met President Biden, several times. Those meetings were at White House events at which Morris and Biden spoke only briefly, just as other guests did. Morris was asked explicitly — again, under penalty of perjury — if he made the payments to aid Joe Biden politically (“In helping Hunter Biden, was your intent to help President Biden?” he was asked; “No,” he responded) or whether he’d asked the president (once elected) to take any official action on his behalf. Over and over, he flatly denied having done so.

The idea that the tax payments were intended to aid presidential candidate Joe Biden was tied back to Morris’s urging his team and his attorneys to more rapidly address the outstanding tax payments.

“We are under considerable risk personally and politically to get the returns in,” he wrote in an email on Feb. 7, 2020.

Morris said that, when helping others recovering from addiction in the past, addressing outstanding tax obligations was one of his first recommended steps. Clearing up those pressures, he said, was important to preventing relapse...................

To follow up on the Kevin Morris testimony, and further show why Hunter wants to testify publicly….Morris’ transcript was released.

According to James Comer’s statement on the interview with Morris that was posted last week, “Kevin Morris admitted he has ‘loaned’ the president’s son at least $5 million. These ‘loans’ don’t have to be repaid until after the next presidential election and the ‘loans’ may ultimately be forgiven.”

So, they got him. Hunter was loaned millions, and after the next presidential election, the loans could be forgiven, making them a bribe for influence.

Here is the moment in the transcript where Morris says the loans could be forgiven. Andy Biggs point out that if Hunter does not repay the loans, Morris would have to choose to enforce that default, and then lists some various ways it could be enforced.



Biggs says “You can forgive it,” and Morris says “Right.” There it is, the nail in the coffin. Someone who loaned money to someone agreed that if the person did not repay it, forgiving the loan was an option.

Someone who understands this better than me please weigh in. Were Hunter’s rights violated?

This guy’s take:

Rob Walker, a longtime friend and business associate of Hunter Biden, has told the House Oversight Committee that President Joe Bidenwas “never involved” in any of the “legitimate business activities” he and the president’s son undertook in the early 2000s.

Mr Walker, who gave evidence in a closed-door deposition before the Republican-led panel on Friday, told committee members that Hunter Biden, a Yale-educated attorney and former lobbyist, “always” took pains to ensure a “clear boundary” between his business activities and his father.……

Just for clarification...this appears to be the individual who was the CHS for the infamous FD-1023 that Comer couldn't wait to release.

And that was treated as fact by a certain poster on this very site, lol.

Oh look...


Where's my shocked face? Congressman Comer, any comments? ***crickets***

Comer isn’t the only one who should be owning up to being wrong about everything here.

Also, there should be an investigation into Weiss, Barr and several congressmen.

Weiss (?) actually tried to say this photo was of Hunter’s cocaine. This is really bad.

Aaaannnnddd, some magistrate is about to let Smirnov out of jail on “personal recognizance”, and we will never see him again. I cannot believe this is stupidity, anyone would say he’s a flight risk.

Yeah, it’s sawdust. The picture was sent to him from his doctor who was treating him for his addiction. It’s the doctor’s saw, the sawdust was made into “lines” as a metaphor for addiction, from what I am reading. They used it as a way to show that doing something creative or productive could take the place of doing drugs.
