James Comer Facing Questions About His Own Finances As He Pushes To Impeach Biden

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) has been saying for months that President Joe Biden and his son, Hunter, have been engaged in financial crimes involving shell companies used to allegedly funnel foreign contributions to the Biden family, which means the president is guilty of high crimes and misdemeanors, and that warrants impeachment and removal from office.

On Wednesday, Comer got what he wanted in the form of a vote from his GOP colleagues to formally open an impeachment inquiry of President Biden.

However, it now appears that Comer has been engaged in the very same behavior he says is proof of illegality by the Bidens, according to an explosive report from The Associated Press.

But as Comer works to “deliver the transparency and accountability that the American people demand” through the GOP’s investigation, his own finances and relationships have begun to draw notice, too, including his ties to prominent local figures who have complicated pasts not all that dissimilar to some of those caught up in his Biden probe.

At issue are six acres of land owned by Comer and his wife which are also co-owned via a shell company by a large contributor to Comer’s campaign, which certainly appears to be a serious conflict of interest.

The AP found that Farm Team Properties functions in a similarly opaque way as the companies used by the Bidens, masking his stake in the land that he co-owns with the donor from being revealed on his financial disclosure forms. Those records describe Farm Team Properties as his wife’s “land management and real estate speculation” company without providing further details.

It’s not clear why Comer decided to put those six acres in a shell company, or what other assets Farm Team Properties may hold. On his most recent financial disclosure forms, Comer lists its value as being as much as $1 million, a substantial sum but a fraction of his overall wealth.

Comer is certainly sensitive about his own shell company and loans he’s made to family members, as was in evidence in November when Rep. Jared Moskowitz (D-FL) accused the chairman of potential wrongdoing and also called him out for his hypocrisy.

“I think you owe it to the American people to explain why you’ve gone on Fox News and told people that while the president was out of office, he had a loan with his brother,” Moskowitz said, despite that “it has come out in the public that you also do business with your brother with potential loans.”

An enraged Comer replied that he’d done nothing wrong and also called Moskowitz a “Smurf” simply because the Florida Democrat happened to be wearing a blue suit at the time.

If Comer continues to push for impeaching Biden, he can likely expect that referrals will be made to the House Ethics Committee referencing the shell company he owns with the donor to his campaign. Though the action may not be illegal, it certainly raises questions about what Comer may be hiding and whether or not he’s using the Biden family as a smokescreen for his own shady business deals.

In other words, karma is coming for James Comer, and when it arrives, it’s going to take a giant bite out of him.
