A triumvirate of Republican-led House committees in August put out a report that makes the case for impeaching outgoing President Biden.
Now Rep. James Comer of Kentucky, the Oversight chair and the Republican face of impeachment has recaptured the probe in a book, “All The President’s Money.” It’s wordplay for the 1974 Woodward-Bernstein book on Watergate-ruined Richard Nixon, “All The President’s Men.”
Washington Times columnist Rowan Scarborough just posted on the book and said, “what I found entertaining about Mr. Comer’s memoir is his salty, unflattering profiles of adversaries.
“Take, for example, his combat with Oversight ranking member Jamie Raskin, a diehard Washington suburb liberal and Biden loyalist. Mr. Comer writes he approached Rep. Jim Jordan, Judiciary chair, about swapping Mr. Raskin for the waddling Rep. Jerry Nadler.”
Of Nadler, Scarborough noted this passage:
“I told Jordan that I despised Raskin so much I would trade ranking members with him,” Mr. Comer writes. “I would rather smell sh— for five straight hours than listen to Jamie Raskin lie like a dog! To properly understand that juxtaposition, you need to ride in an elevator for a few floors with Jim Jordan’s ranking member, Jerry Nadler.”
Nadler appears again in the recap of the February 2024 deposition of Hunter Biden, as does Rep. Eric Swalwell. He yelled a demand for an instant transcript.
“Swalwell then popped off one of his usual smart-ass remarks demanding the terms he wanted, and I quickly snapped back, ‘I don’t care what you want, Eric.’ As I was attempting to restore order, Judiciary ranking member Jerry Nadler, who had already filled the room with his signature essence, Eau de Truck Stop Restroom, swelled with emotion (or something equally noxious) and cried forth, ‘Well, I care!’”
