Flotsam and Jetsam - Hunter Demands Open Hearing

At PM, BREAKING: Hunter Biden agrees to testify before House Oversight Committee, "Mr. Chairman, we take you up on your offer.

Mary Chastain at LI, Oversight Chairman Comer Shoots Down Hunter Biden’s Offer to Publicly Testify, 'Hunter has never played by the rules. Why would he want to start now?" Ace, Hunter Biden Refuses to Testify Behind Closed Doors; Representative Comer Tells Him He Will Either Observe the Subpoena or Face the Consequences "The impeachment committee wants to ask Hunter Biden about his money-laundering and influence-peddling behind closed doors, so they can get a real deposition. They have factual questions they want answers to, be they accurate answers or be they perjurious. Hunter Biden doesn't want to do that. He wants to have a monkey-flinging spectacle. He says he'll only appear for a public questioning with the cameras rolling. James Comer rejects this "offer.""

Liberal Oligarch Charles Koch Backs Liberal Neocon Retread Nikki Haley for President "I did not see this coming." Capt. Ed comments "I don’t think the Kochs move the needle on the Right much these days. AFP also endorsed Haley, which I think has more reach, but it’s not even close to dispositive. In fact, endorsements like these matter much less than local/regional endorsements such as those from governors like Kim Reynolds in Iowa and Greg Abbott in Texas, who endorsed DeSantis and Trump, respectively." Never-anybody-but-Trump sundance has After Pledging $70 Million, Charles Koch Selects Nikki Haley as the Vessel to Remove His Trump Problem and Ron DeSantis Paid Evangelical “Indulgency Fee” for Bob Vander Plaats’ Iowa Endorsement.

New York’s #MeToo law known as the Adult Survivors Act has ensnared a  number of Hollywood celebrities and prominent Democrats who are facing accusations of sexual misconduct, assault, and rape dating as far back as the 1980s. Why is that? Because the law, which Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) signed last year, lifts the statute of limitations on such complaints — with no time limit on when the alleged actions took place. . . . Under the Adult Survivors Act, plaintiffs have had a one-year time period that started November 24, 2022 in which to file their complaints. The past few weeks have seen a flurry of suits against prominent celebrities including Jaime Foxx, Sean “Diddy” Combs, Cuba Gooding, Jr., Bill Cosby, punk rocker Justin Sane, and musician Axl Rose."

Eaton’s resume states that he went to the University of Idaho for a bachelor’s in general studies in 2001, where he focused on natural resource ecology and conservation biology but was seven credits short of graduating. He also got a graduate certification at the University of Idaho in environmental education, which is pending his undergraduate completion, as well as a pro-professional forestry degree at Paul Smith’s College, according to the document. . . .
(“Environmental education”? Hmmm.)
According to NBC, Eaton appears to have a YouTube account that has playlists with videos that include “Expose Fauci,” long COVID, economics, and how to use brain crystals for “psychic powers.” An Instagram account that appears to belong to him also shows him on a farm and cooking.
In an X account that appeared to belong to Eaton, he describes himself as a “radical citizen…patrolling demockracy and crapitalism for oathcreepers.” A 2022 archived version of that same account, which contains the same photo, has a more subdued bio that describes him as a Vermont dad and part-time farmer. The archived X account also provides a link to a Substack, with the “wandering ramblings of a reformed broker on the ADHD/ASD spectrum.” . . .
(The hints of kookiness begin to proliferate.) . . . Have I mentioned lately that Crazy People Are Dangerous?
