The Daily Beast: “House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer’s impeachment probe into President Joe Biden may have fizzled, but at least he might get some cash out of it by launching a tell-all book.
The Kentucky Republican was co-chair of a two year GOP effort that spent millions of dollars to produce a 291-page report that did not recommend moving forward with impeachment, instead listing off a bunch of previously made, unsupported claims about Biden engaging in “influence peddling.”
…His book, All the President’s Money, will release on Jan. 14, six days before President-elect Donald Trump is inaugurated.
When it was first revealed that Comer was in discussions with publishers for a book deal, the watchdog Congressional Integrity Project raised alarm that he was trying to leverage his position in Washington to benefit his personal and campaign bank accounts.
“Representative Comer and his Republican colleagues have spent the past 15 months relentlessly investigating the president and his family and failed to find any evidence of wrongdoing by President Biden let alone anything impeachable,” the group said in a statement.”
