The White House on Wednesday bashed House Republicans for not dropping the impeachment inquiry into President Biden, calling the hearing earlier that day embarrassing for them.

“That hearing was embarrassing for House Republicans. A total waste of time. It’s time to move on from this sad charade. There are real issues the American people want us to address,” White House spokesperson for investigations Ian Sams said in a statement.

The White House has been pushing for Republicans to drop the impeachment inquiry, declaring it a waste of time from the beginning and now insisting the investigation is over. White House counsel Ed Siskel wrote a letter to Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) last week, arguing that the months-long effort to uncover wrongdoing by Biden has come up empty.

Republicans invited two witnesses to the hearing Wednesday who had little connection to Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, and his business dealings. Some Republicans have been critical of the probe and have expressed doubts it will lead to a formal impeachment trial.

1. The Hill doesn't bother mentioning the Lev Parnas testimony

which should have ended the whole thing right there.

2. Little of the M$M did either

The report I heard this morning from CBS news radio had ZERO mention of Lev. They focused more on Jamie Raskin's ridicule of the whole thing.

I had posted a CNN source this past Tuesday that had mentioned it would be coming - https://www.democraticunderground.com/10143211949 and there was some coverage as it happened yesterday - https://www.democraticunderground.com/10143212386

After that? *poof*

3. The Press is AWOL on the Russia-GOP Treason.

For some reason.

5. The more the WH presses for it to be dropped, the MORE the GOP becomes determined to continue *

* so I wonder if this is some sort of negative-double-reverse-looped psychological game that the White House is playing with the GOP. Three-D chess vs their tiddly-winks?

6. It's public ridicule - especially since a large part of the government is set to shut down at midnight tomorrow

7. Agree, but move on where.

Hillary's e-mail have been beat to death.

8. Calling Dr. BEN GAZZI!

Dr Howard, Dr Fine, Dr Howard!
