James Comer put Joe Biden under investigation for this bad reason

Nov 4, 2024

Joe Biden’s scandal plagued administration is wrapping up just like it started.

There is another mushrooming example of wrongdoing.

And now James Comer put Joe Biden under investigation for this bad reason.

James Comer announces investigation of transcript alteration

Joe Biden created a political firestorm when he called Trump supporters garbage on a Latinos for Harris Zoom call in response to a joke made by comedian Tony Hinchcliffe about Puerto Rico during a set at Donald Trump’s Madison Square Garden rally.

“The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters– his– his demonization of Latinos is unconscionable, and it’s un-American,” Biden snarled.

But a White House transcript of the call claimed Biden used “supporter’s” with an apostrophe to describe the comedian’s joke as opposed to all Trump supporters.

A plain reading of Biden’s comments shows this is false and that Biden clearly meant to demean the tens of millions of Americans.

An email between officials in the Stenography and Press Offices called the White House pressuring stenographers to alter the transcript to create a false record of what Biden said “a breach of protocol and spoliation of transcript integrity between the Stenography and Press Offices.”

The official at the Stenography and Press Office took issue with the fact that their team produced a record of Biden’s remarks that would mislead the American people.

“If there is a difference in interpretation, the Press Office may choose to withhold the transcript but cannot edit it independently,” the supervisor added. “Our Stenography Office transcript — released to our distro, which includes the National Archives — is now different than the version edited and released to the public by Press Office staff.”

“Regardless of urgency, it is essential to our transcripts’ authenticity and legitimacy that we adhere to consistent protocol for requesting edits, approval, and release,” the stenography official continued.

James Comer announces investigation

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) and Congresswoman Elise Stefanik didn’t think this was any laughing matter.

Altering Biden’s transcript is a federal crime in violation of the Presidential Records Act.

Comer and Stefanik sent a letter to White House counsel Edward Siskel requesting documents about this criminal act.

“The White House cannot simply rewrite President Biden’s rhetoric. In this case, it appears the White House is doing so to safeguard Vice President Harris’s presidential campaign. Recent reporting has since revealed ‘White House press officials altered the official transcript,’” Stefanik and Comer wrote to Siskel.

The media ignored this scandal.

Not only did it involve a cover up to make Biden seem less senile, there was also a potentially criminal action.

Had this taken place under Donald Trump, the press would be at Defcon 1.

But since it involved Joe Biden – who the press wants to pretend no longer exists or else it hurts Kamala Harris – it gets a pass.
