@wildgrass saidThat is because it was not a deposition. He needs to be under oath. Hunter was just trying to avoid answering questions under oath.
The request to question Hunter at the hearing was denied by the chair. Republicans refused to question him. Then he left. There's no other way to interpret it.
The embarrassing part is they continued on with their prepared talking points about how he was too chicken to appear before the committee, while he was sitting right in front of them prepared to answer questions.
Embarrassing.

@wildgrass saidYes. He left before MTG could ask him anything. She said how she was glad he was there........and he up and left before she could say anything else. Watch the video.

@metal-brain saidDuuuuuude. You cannot plead ignorance here. Video is obvious. The video Livestreams across the world. MTG spoke after the chairman denied a democratic request to question the witness under oath.

He left because they refused to question him.

@wildgrass saidWho is "they"? MTG was ready to ask him questions. Who stopped her?

Whoever it was it was because he was not under oath, right?
Why don't you question Trump without the threat of perjury too?
Would it be as fun knowing he cannot be charged with perjury if he lies?
@metal-brain saidThey is the committee, obviously. Do you have that clip? MTG spoke after they already decided not to question him, so your statement seems silly in context.

@wildgrass saidMTG is not they. She was about to question him and he ran away.

He could have stayed.
@metal-brain saidEveything from the moment he woke up was preplanned by his Sugar Brother, who stands to make millions on a documentary. He needed Hunter to do that.

Compare: Yesterday I just walked right into an Apple Store to get my computer fixed, with no appointment. Hunter had no appointment, he was not on their docket, they were busy, could not have squeezed him in if they had wanted to.
So, Apple threw me out on my back. They said don't come back without an appointment, man!
You libs just do not see logic. You just don't. I mean, you create laws and crimes in the Trump matter, for instance, and you think that Hunter can control a congressional hearing?????????????????/. YOu all have sheSuzie reasoning, which is none. Pitiful.
@metal-brain saidYou’re lying again he’s offered to give evidence under oath as long as it’s a public hearing and not a closed door kangaroo court.
That is because it was not a deposition. He needs to be under oath. Hunter was just trying to avoid answering questions under oath.
There is only one reason why the scumbag gop caucus in the house wants it done in the dark and that is so they can control the information released to the public for blatant election interference reasons
@kevcvs57 saidExactly. Fascist corruption at its most obvious.

The only way I’d go into a dark room with MTG would be to rape her corpse.

@metal-brain saidNo. You are making this up.
MTG is not they. She was about to question him and he ran away.

In reality, MTG showed a picture of hunters genitalia to the committee. That is what actually happened.
@averagejoe1 saidLMAO! They were "busy" having a hearing the purpose of which was to vote to find Hunter in contempt for not appearing in front of the Committee to answer questions. So he appeared in front of the Committee and they refused to ask him any questions.

@metal-brain saidThe Chairman could have put him under oath right there and then.
That is because it was not a deposition. He needs to be under oath. Hunter was just trying to avoid answering questions under oath.
You are pathetically gullible and misinformed mainly because you want to be.
@no1marauder saidYou surprise me. I would think you would respect procedure.

@Mott-The-Hoople
So a radical rightwinger saying he has no balls has nothing to do with it.
Got it. Funny they didn't just ask the questions they would have asked when they wanted a secret hearing with nobody watching so they could conduct their circus without consequences but when he showed up, no questions were asked, just insults. THEY are the hypocrites not Hunter.
They wanted yet another circus and that is the bottom line and they proved it the way they reacted when he showed up.
