Jake Tapper Mocks Rep. James Comer To His Face | HuffPost Latest News

Rep. James Comer (R-Ky.) has a new conspiracy theory about Hunter Biden, but he couldnt get CNN s Jake Tapper to take it seriously during an interview Friday.

In fact, Tapper mocked the Kentucky congressman to his face.

The presidents son was indicted Thursday on nine tax charges in California, and Comer, the House Oversight Committee chair, appeared on CNN the next day to discuss the matter.

Although Biden could face serious time behind bars if convicted, Comer dubiously claimed the criminal charges were actually part of a cover-up designed to throw off his investigation into unproven allegations around the Biden familys supposedly shady financial dealings.

Comer said none of the crimes that Hunter Biden was accused of dealt with things his committee is investigating, and then suggested that special counsel David Weiss indicted the presidents son to protect him from having to be deposed in the House Oversight Committee [next week].

Tappers eyebrows raised over that theory, and he couldnt help but mock it to Comer directly.

He indicted him to protect him? Tapper asked, before sarcastically adding, The classic rubric, I got it.

Comer said the whole Biden story has been about a cover-up, but Tapper went back to Comers previous, somewhat contradictory statement.

Thats why [Weiss] indicted him, to protect him? To cover it up? Tapper asked incredulously.

Comer responded, Look, you indict him on the least little thing, the gun charge and not paying taxes, before Tapper pointed out why the theory sounded ridiculous.

[Bidens] facing like 17 additional years in prison! These are felonies! Tapper said.

Yeah, but look at what hes done! Anybody else in America would already be in prison, Comer said.

You can see their exchange and Tappers reaction in the video below.

Tappers snark continued when he grilled Comer on why he wont let Biden testify before his committee in public, an offer he made previously.

Why not just jump at the opportunity to grill Hunter Biden on national television? Tapper asked. Heres your chance, you know? Youre the dog that caught the bus. Here it is!

Comer claimed his investigation wasnt about politics or theater, to which Tapper chuckled.

The CNN anchors reaction to Comers very dubious theory didnt go unnoticed on X, formerly known as Twitter.

What makes this even funnier is that Comer doesnt seem to sense Jake Tappers sarcasm at all https://t.co/wk7HG7SHD3
