TL;DR Summary

House Republicans are preparing to hold Hunter Biden in contempt of Congress after he failed to comply with a subpoena for closed-door testimony. Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer announced a resolution to penalize Biden for not appearing before the committee, which requires full House approval. Hunter Biden has expressed willingness to testify publicly, but Republicans insist on a private deposition. Democrats and Hunter Biden's lawyer accuse Republicans of political play and avoiding public testimony to maintain control over the narrative. The GOP has been investigating Hunter Biden's business dealings but has not provided evidence of President Biden's wrongdoing. The House has already voted to formalize an impeachment inquiry into President Biden.
