Home Oversight Committee Chair James Comer is now throwing Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) beneath the bus as Biden impeachment crumbles.
Comer responded when requested Larry Kudlow if it was true that the impeachment investigation is over:
That’s not true. Smirnov was a tip that we obtained from Chuck Grassley. We investigated the tip, however we couldn’t decide whether or not or not the tip was correct as a result of we didn’t know who the informant was. All we, Jim Jordan and I, knew concerning the informant was what Christopher Wray informed us, that he was one of many highest paid, most trusted informants in your entire Bureau and that he had labored for the Bureau for over 10 years.
Most people that had been concerned. In that allegation, we’re in Ukraine. Properly, I can’t go to Ukraine. I can’t ship my employees. We talked about this on this many occasions.

The issue with Comer’s assertion is that Grassley said that he didn’t know if the allegation was true, however that didn’t cease Comer and Rep. Jim Jordan from operating with it. Then when it turned out that the informant was passing alongside disinformation from Russia, Chair Comer performs dumb whereas throwing 90 yr previous Chuck Grassley beneath the bus.
Jim Jordan keeps posting Russian disinformation and attacks on President Biden as facts, so he’s beginning to appear to be he’s conspiring with Putin.
Comer is attempting to faux just like the false bribery allegation that was on the heart of the Republican impeachment probe was by no means necessary.
It’s time for Comer to close down his impeachment investigation. It’s over. He’s acquired nothing. It’s time for Rep. Comer to confess defeat and transfer on.
