In a compelling Oversight Committee hearing on Wednesday, South Carolina Rep. Nancy Mace delivered a scathing critique of Hunter Biden, accusing him of embodying white privilege and flouting the rule of law.
The session, marked by its intensity, saw Rep. Mace (R-SC) question Hunter’s presence and motives. “Who bribed Hunter Biden to be here today?” she joked in her opening remarks, setting the stage for the fiery exchange.
Mace lambasted Hunter for ignoring the original congressional subpoena, saying, “You are the epitome of white privilege,” she charged, “coming into the Oversight Committee, spitting in our face.” Her comments reflected the growing sentiment among conservatives regarding perceived double standards in the application of justice.
The hearing quickly escalated as Mace boldly said, “You have no balls to come up here” to Hunter.
The session was not without its procedural skirmishes. Interruptions and calls for points of order punctuated the hearing, indicative of the high tensions and partisan divides within the committee. Mace continued her address, asserting, “I think that Hunter Biden should be arrested right here, right now, and go straight to jail.”
Following the fiery exchanges and accusations in the session, the tension reached a peak when Hunter, in an unprecedented move, stormed out of the room. This came as Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) was about to question him.
“Excuse me, Hunter. Apparently, you’re afraid of my words?” taunted the Georgia lawmaker as her colleagues uttered their own incredulity at Hunter’s brazen walkout.
The House Oversight Committee convened its hearing on Wednesday morning to assess a resolution endorsing contempt of Congress charges against Hunter. Last month, Hunter avoided scheduled testimony regarding his international business ventures, opting instead for a press conference outside Congress to criticize Republicans for damaging his reputation.
Chairman James Comer (R-KY) had previously signaled the pursuit of contempt of Congress charges, prompting Hunter's appearance to defend his actions.
Seated in the audience alongside his attorney Abbe Lowell, Hunter was likely to face questioning from Rep. Greene about his obstruction. Hunter insisted that his refusal to testify publicly was due to the committee leadership's reluctance to open the testimony to the public. Rep. Comer assured a future public hearing but insisted on the initial testimony being conducted behind closed doors.
Aides, both past and present, to President Biden are grappling with how to handle Hunter's aggressive press strategy. Former press secretary Jen Psaki, on MSNBC last month, expressed the view that Hunter's public appearances are detrimental to his father's reelection campaign and suggested he should refrain from public statements.
Psaki stated, "Look, I think if you’re sitting in the White House right now, you’re like ‘Please, Hunter Biden, we know your dad loves you. Please stop talking in public.’ This is not helpful for any of them to be out there."
Internally, the White House is contending with "fits of rage" from President Biden, who has voiced regret over seeking a second term. He believes that criminal charges against Hunter, including tax fraud and gun possession, would not have been brought if he hadn't run for reelection.
