ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel expressed his concern with Hunter Biden possibly going before the House Oversight Committee on his Tuesday show claiming Republicans’ desire for a closed-door hearing will lead them to “make stuff up” because “they’ve seen no evidence that Joe Biden had anything to do” with Hunter’s business operations.
Kimmel actually began with a rare joke about Hunter himself, “Hunter Biden may be heading to Congress. He said—Hunter said he is willing to testify before the House Oversight Committee, but only if it is televised. He wants to do it in public, preferably nude, in a hot tub, smoking an unfiltered cigarette with a hooker.”
However, Kimmel quickly shifted to the substance of the matter and, like Hunter’s legal team, demanded a televised hearing, “but his legal team wants him to testify out in the open, but Republicans don’t want that. They don't want it on TV. They're like, ‘If we don’t do this behind closed doors, how are we supposed to make stuff up?’"
If the positions were reversed, Kimmel would probably accuse Republicans of wanting the hearing televised so they could get their 30 seconds of fame by confronting Hunter and putting the clip on the internet while fundraising off it.
As it is, Republicans are seeking to deny Democrats the opportunity to get their own 30 second clips that would end up on Jimmy Kimmel Live! And as for Chairman James Comer, Kimmel declared:
James Comer, the man who runs the Oversight Committee says, ‘Hunter Biden is trying to play by his own rules instead of following the rules required of everyone else. That won't stand with House Republicans.’
Which of course, is hilarious for about 10,000 different reasons especially from James Comer, who went after Joe Biden for giving his brother a $200,000 loan, turned out he did the same thing for his own brother, so--. It's really amazing. Even though we've seen no evidence, and they've seen no evidence, that Joe Biden had anything to do with this, Hunter and the laptop-- this will not go away. Joe Biden could become the first president to get impeached because his son didn't have AppleCare.
Kimmel, the king of late night insult hurling, who once told Hunter that him being attacked by Sen. Lindsey Graham was proof of how politics becomes "toxic," loves joking about the professional relationship between Donald Trump and his children, but when it comes to the Bidens there is nothing to see here, please move along because there is no comedic value in Joe Biden conversing with Hunter on speakerphone in front of his associates.

JIMMY KIMMEL: Hunter Biden may be heading to Congress. He said—Hunter said he is willing to testify before the House Oversight Committee, but only if it is televised. He wants to do it in public, preferably nude, in a hot tub, smoking an unfiltered cigarette with a hooker, but his legal team wants him to testify out in the open, but Republicans don’t want that. They don't want it on TV. They're like, ‘If we don’t do this behind closed doors, how are we supposed to make stuff up?"
The chair of the Oversight Committee—it’s really—it’s something else. James Comer, the man who runs the Oversight Committee says, “Hunter Biden is trying to play by his own rules instead of following the rules required of everyone else. That won't stand with House Republicans."
Which of course, is hilarious for about 10,000 different reasons especially from James Comer, who went after Joe Biden for giving his brother a $200,000 loan, turned out he did the same thing for his own brother, so--. It's really amazing. Even though we've seen no evidence, and they've seen no evidence, that Joe Biden had anything to do with this, Hunter and the laptop-- this will not go away. Joe Biden could become the first president to get impeached because his son didn't have AppleCare.
