Rep. Nancy Mace (R-N.C.) lashed out at the president’s son, asking “what are you afraid of?” and accusing him of having “no balls to come up here,” after Hunter Biden last month refused to testify before the committee behind closed doors.
The GOP-led House Oversight Committee meeting was scheduled to discuss a resolution to hold him in contempt of Congress for denying Congress members the opportunity to question him in private.
Hunter Biden abruptly left the meeting when Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) was called on to address the committee, causing an uproar in the House chamber.
Greene accused Hunter Biden in a tweet of fleeing the meeting, because “the only women” he “likes to deal with are the women he hires for sex,” she tweeted, along with other lewd accusations referring to the sordid lifestyle he has admitted to living while he was addicted to drugs.
Rep. Robert Garcia (D-Ca.) defended Hunter Biden for leaving when Greene was set to speak, saying it was understandable considering she showed a blurred nude photo of him engaging in a sex act during a previous GOP-led hearing.
Hunter Biden in December was scheduled to testify before House Republicans as part of their sprawling investigation into his finances and whether his father inappropriately used his influence to aid his son’s business dealings. He refused to sit before the committee unless the testimony was held in public, instead holding a rare news conference outside the Capitol where he accused Republicans of a “baseless inquiry” and gave an emotional defense of his father.
