Raskin mentioned throughout his opening assertion:

 We will conclude that this inspector Clouseau-style quest for one thing that doesn’t exist, has turned our committee right into a theater of the absurd and train and futility and embarrassment. And now we are able to lastly definitively say why the committee’s efforts have run dry again and again.

Simply yesterday, Mr. Chairman, you and I acquired a letter from Lev Parnas, the Ukrainian-born American businessman who was that Rudy Giuliani’s aspect as his right-hand man for a 12 months between November 2018 to October 2019 as Giuliani after which President Trump tried to smear Joe Biden earlier than the 2020 election with the exact same allegations had been nonetheless operating by the political spin cycle each week on this committee.

I request unanimous consent to enter the Parnas letter into the report. With out objection to order now on this extraordinary 10-page letter companions painstakingly describes the marketing campaign orchestrated by Giuliani and Trump to cite, dig up filth on the Bidens and unfold misinformation about them by numerous networks, together with authorities officers, journalists and Fox Information personnel after explaining this marketing campaign to manufacture corruption fees towards Biden companions, concludes his letter by saying. All through all these months of labor, the in depth campaigns and networking achieved by Trump allies and Giuliani Associates, together with the enormously thorough interviews and assignments that I undertook quote there has by no means been any proof that Hunter or Joe Biden dedicated any crimes associated to Ukrainian politics. By no means throughout any of my communications with Ukrainian officers or connections to Burisma.

Did any of them affirm or present concrete information linking the Bidens to unlawful actions? As Mr Parnas concludes, there’s by no means been any factual proof solely conspiracy theories unfold by individuals who knew precisely what they had been doing. After which he calls on this committee to finish its wild goose chase and gives to come back and testify. Bear in mind that is Mr Giuliani’s man. That is his interpreter and right-hand man who spent a 12 months on the market making an attempt to cook dinner the books towards Joe Biden, and he gives to come back testify. Let’s carry him in as a witness, and let’s hear about that campaign. That they had been on to smear President Biden by selling the identical baseless conspiracy theories that this committee serves up as moldy leftovers daily.

Republicans Are Greedy At Baseless Conspiracies

Speaker McCarthy admitted on Tuesday that the true function of Jim Jordan’s Weaponization of Authorities subcommittee is to assist Donald Trump. McCarthy made this admission whereas being requested on Fox Information what Home Republicans can do to cease Jack Smith.

The purpose of the IRS pretend whistleblower listening to is to smear President Biden and his household. In his opening remarks, Home Oversight Committee Chair James Comer made numerous allegations, however he supplied no proof that the President has achieved something improper, and that’s the downside that Home Republicans proceed to run into.

The GOP flings conspiracy theories on the wall, however nothing is sticking, as a result of they don’t have any factual proof of wrongdoing. Oversight Committee rating member Raskin upset the GOP conspiracy apple cart by supply precise witness proof that countered the premise that the listening to relies on.

Democrats are skilled at Home oversight and listening to, and members like Rep. Raskin proceed to run circles across the hapless Comer and Jordan.
