There was a time when CNN journalists were supposed to want to discover the truth, not help Dems cover it up. The Dem arg that Hunter Biden isn’t “relevant” (which Cuomo dutifully repeats) is just silly. Here’s why: the House Managers based their case on the proposition... 1/x
2/x ...that it was “baseless” and a “sham” to seek an investigation into corruption involving Burisma and the Bidens. The House devoted several hours to making that arg. That naturally opens the door to the President’s main defense: that there was more than enough evidence...
3/x ...of corruption to justify an investigation. Here are several Qs the House refused to answer (or said “I don’t know”): 1) how much did Burisma pay Hunter Biden? ($1 million a year, as publicly reported? More?) 2) what exactly did Hunter DO for that $1 million a year?...
4/x ...3) what did Joe Biden know about Hunter’s being paid $1 million a year by Burisma? (Joe & Hunter gave conflicting answers publicly.) 4) why didn’t Joe recuse himself from Ukraine matters when Hunter went on Burisma’s payroll? 5) when Hunter’s business partner John Heinz...
5/x ...who was John Kerry’s stepson, found out that Hunter Biden had joined the board of Burisma, he terminated his partnership w/ Hunter, saying doing business w/ Burisma was “unacceptable”; did John Kerry or Joe Biden agree? (House Managers refused to answer.)
