Watergate Redux: Those Defending the Biden Crime Family Will Eventually Look Like Fools; Rep. James Comer Says Biden Subpoena Coming: ‘We’re putting together a case’; McCarthy Demands Biden ‘give us his bank statements’ as Impeachment Probe Looms

Watergate redux: Those defending the Biden crime family will eventually look like fools:

Many bright young people come to Washington — to do good. Some do right well. A few others go to jail. But most eventually end up feeling various degrees of disgust.

In 1973, recently out of graduate school and immediately following a stint as the New York director of research for President Richard Nixon’s reelection campaign, I arrived in Washington to oversee an organization of young Republican professionals — giving me a front-row seat to the Watergate scandal.

All scandals are different, but many of those caught up in them act in the same predictable ways. The increasingly unwilling participants in the Biden crime family scandal are acting in much the same way as those in or around the Nixon administration did during Watergate.

Nixon had a record landslide over George McGovern in 1972 because McGovern had been portrayed as soft on defense (the Soviet Union was viewed as a real threat by most people), incompetent on economic issues, and off in la-la land on social issues.

Many feared that it would be the end of the American republic if McGovern were elected; therefore, no action to prevent his election was viewed as too extreme.

In the same way, some of the never-Trumpers believe it is OK to violate the Constitution to prevent former President Donald Trump’s reelection.

The first reaction of a president’s supporters is that the president knew nothing about it (i.e., the Watergate break-in or Hunter Biden’s pay-for-play).

In Nixon’s case, the evidence is that he did not have prior knowledge or approve of the break-in, but when he learned that some of those involved did have connections to the White House, the reelection campaign, the FBI and the CIA, he helped organize the cover-up — big mistake.

As with Nixon, as more and more evidence of President Biden’s knowledge of the crimes comes out and his supporters look increasingly silly, fewer and fewer will remain loyalists. Rep. Dan Goldman of New York, a strong, knowledgeable and articulate Democratic defender of the president, tried to argue this past week that the 20 or so phone calls revealed by Devon Archer made to Mr. Biden during Hunter Biden’s meetings with corrupt foreign parties might have been “about the weather.” —>READ MORE HERE

Rep. James Comer says Biden subpoena coming: ‘We’re putting together a case’:

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) said Thursday he intends to subpoena members of the Biden family as his panel’s investigation of the president’s role in his son’s influence-peddling gathers pace.

“This is always going to end with the Bidens coming in front of the committee,” Comer told Fox Business Network’s “Mornings with Maria” program. “We are going to subpoena the family.”

“We know that this is going to end up in court, when we subpoena the Bidens,” he added. “So we’re putting together a case and I think we’ve done that very well.”

Comer did not divulge a specific timeline for issuing the summonses, saying he wants to talk with “three or four more associates” of the Biden family first.

The Republican did not identify the “associates,” but said the Oversight committee was “communicating with a couple of them” and promised “if they don’t come in voluntarily, then they’ll be subpoenaed.”

On July 31, the Oversight Committee took a deposition from Hunter Biden’s former business partner Devon Archer, who revealed that the now-first son put his father on speakerphone at least 20 times during meetings with business associates.

On Wednesday, the GOP-led committee unveiled bank records that showed the Biden family and its allies had reaped some $20 million from foreign associates — including in Russia, Kazakhstan and Ukraine.

“The president and the media were telling us that number one, no money had been transferred to the Bidens while Joe Biden was vice president — that was false,” Comer contended. —>READ MORE HERE
