White House Counsel’s Office spokesman Ian Sams issued a scathing memo in response to a memo from House Oversight Committee Chairman Rep. James Comer and Republican staff on the committee that Sams says is “full of years-old ‘news,’ innuendo, and misdirection’ but no proof of any connection to President Joe Biden.
Comer’s memo contains financial statements, snippets from testimony by former Hunter Biden business partner Devon Archer, and even a photograph — but as Sams pointed out in his memo, Comer himself tacitly admits he has no evidence against the president:
"Comer’s memo doesn’t show anything about President Biden. And faced with his inability to uncover any evidence that President Biden did anything wrong, Comer is now explicitly moving the goal posts:"
"Comer in his memo today: 'President Biden’s defenders purport a weak defense by asserting the Committee must show payments directly to the President to show corruption.'"
