Representative Steve Chabot (R-OH) used some of his time to show videos of Hunter Biden and Joe Biden.
“Imagine this, you’ve got the Vice President, Joe Biden, in charge of overseeing our Ukranian policy and his son, Hunter Biden, receiving $50,000 a month with no identifiable expertise in either energy or Ukraine, yet the Democrats won’t let us present witnesses on that,” Chabot said. “So, let’s do the next best thing since we can’t bring the witnesses her — let’s watch a couple of videos.”
The first video was an ABC interview with Hunter Biden. Hunter was asked if he thought he’d have been asked to serve on the board if his last name wasn’t Biden.
“I don’t know,” Hunter said. “I don’t know. Probably not.”
Chabot then talked about a high-level U.S. official who did engage in a quid pro quo with Ukraine.
“What’s worse is that first the Intelligence committee and now this committee are conducting an impeachment investigation against President Trump based on, as professor (Jonathan) Turley put it last week, wafer-thin evidence and ignoring evidence of a high-level U.S. official who actually did engage in a quid pro quo with the Ukranian government, in fact confessed to it in this video,” Chabot said.
“I said ‘I’m telling ya, you’re not getting $1 billion,'” Biden said. “I said ‘we’re leaving in six hours, if the prosecutor is not fired, you’re not getting the money.’ Well, son of a bitch, got fired.”
Chabot concluded by saying “you’re investigating the wrong guy, Mr. Chairman.”
