During a recent interview with Newsmax, House Oversight Committee chair Rep. James Comer (R-KY) said the Department of Justice has become “weaponized against conservatives.”
Comer made the statement following the third indictment of former President Donald J. Trump.
“Look, the American people believe overwhelmingly that the Department of Justice has become weaponized against conservatives. [The indictment] is further proof of that,” Comer said. “But I believe with all my heart … that the more they do, the more unintended consequences they have of making Donald Trump more popular with the American people.”
Comer also blasted New York Democrat Dan Goldman for speaking to the press about the closed-door testimony of Hunter Biden’s ex-business partner Devon Archer.
“Goldman ran out and lied … very unprofessional,” Comer said. “But again, this is what the Democrats do. They go out and they tell their partners in crime with the mainstream media what to write. And they wrote it, they ran with it.”
“Many in the mainstream media went with Goldman’s comments before the transcribed interview was even finished.”
“At the heart of Archer’s testimony was a link between Burisma executives using Hunter Biden to get ahold of his father in an effort to fire Ukrainian prosecutor Viktor Shokin, who was investigating Burisma,” Newsmax reports.
“Archer could have been more specific about who they called in D.C.,” Comer said. “But at the end of the day he admitted that Burisma executives were squeezing Hunter Biden … to get the prosecutor fired.”
