Home Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer is now throwing Senator Chuck Grassley (R-IA) underneath the bus due to the Biden impeachment collapse.
When requested by Larry Kudlow if it was true that the impeachment inquiry is over, Comer responded:
it’s not true. Smirnov was a tip we bought from Chuck Grassley. We investigated the knowledge, however we couldn’t decide whether or not the knowledge was correct as a result of we didn’t know who the supply of the knowledge was. What we, Jim Jordan and I, knew concerning the informant was what Christopher Ray had advised us, that he was one of many highest paid, most trusted informants in your entire Bureau and that he had labored for the Bureau for over 10 years. Had labored until.
Most people have been concerned on this. On that cost, we’re in Ukraine. Properly, I can't go to Ukraine. I can't ship my employees. We talked about this many instances.

The issue with Comer's assertion is that Grassley stated he didn't know whether or not the allegation was true or not, however that didn't cease Comer and Consultant Jim Jordan from working with it. Then when it was revealed that the whistleblower was spreading disinformation from Russia, Chair Comer acted foolishly by throwing 90-year-old Chuck Grassley underneath the bus.
Jim Jordan retains posting Russian disinformation and assaults on President Biden as information, so it's beginning to seem like he's conspiring with Putin.
Comer is making an attempt to faux that the false bribery cost on the heart of the Republican impeachment inquiry was by no means vital.
It’s time for Comer to finish his impeachment investigation. it's throughout. He doesn't have something. Now it’s time for Consultant Comer to just accept defeat and transfer on.
