By the decree enforcing the institution of the papacy in violation of the law of God, our nation will disconnect herself fully from righteousness. When Protestantism shall stretch her hand across the gulf to grasp the hand of the Roman power, when she shall reach over the abyss to clasp hands with spiritualism, when, under the influence of this threefold union, our country shall repudiate every principle of its Constitution as a Protestant and republican government, and shall make provision for the propagation of papal falsehoods and delusions, then we may know that the time has come for the marvelous working of Satan and that the end is near. {5T 451.1}

Hunter Biden tells Congress he’d testify publicly, but Republicans demand closed-door session

WASHINGTON (AP) — Hunter Biden offered Tuesday to testify publicly before Congress, striking a defiant note in response to a subpoena from Republicans and setting up a potential high-stakes faceoff even as a separate special counsel probe unfolds and his father, President Joe Biden, campaigns for reelection.

👀 Hunter Biden calls bluff

Hunter Biden's lawyer said today the president's son is open to testifying in December before the House Oversight Committee — but that the proceedings should be in public, not behind closed doors, Axios' Erin Doherty reports.

  • "We have seen you use closed-door sessions to manipulate, even distort the facts and misinform the public," Hunter Biden's lawyer Abbe Lowell wrote in a letter to Oversight Chair James Comer (R-Ky.).

Why it matters: House Republicans subpoenaed Hunter Biden and James Biden, the president's brother, this month as their impeachment inquiry appears to be entering its final stages.

  • Comer immediately rejected Lowell's offer to have Hunter Biden testify publicly, saying he must first sit for a deposition as required by the subpoena.
  • "Hunter Biden is trying to play by his own rules instead of following the rules required of everyone else. That won't stand with House Republicans," Comer said.

The intrigue: Not all Republicans seem to agree with Comer's approach.

  • "My view is the American people have a right to see," Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) told Fox Business.
  • "If you do this stuff in private, what happens is there's inevitably bunches of leaks. ... Just do it in public."

🥊 Hunter punches back

Hunter Biden — in a remarkable appearance at the Capitol today — defied a House GOP subpoena to sit for a deposition behind closed doors and challenged lawmakers to hold a public hearing, Axios' Erin Doherty writes.

  • Why it matters: It's his latest effort to take control of the narrative surrounding multiple high-profile investigations and public controversies.

Risking contempt of Congress charges, Hunter attacked Republican lawmakers and said he was worried they'd leak his deposition out of context.

  • "For six years, I have been a target of the unrelenting Trump attack machine shouting, 'Where's Hunter?' Well, here's my answer. I am here," he said.

🔮 What's next: The House is set to vote tonight on formally authorizing its impeachment inquiry into President Biden.

🔎 Behind the scenes: Why Hunter showed up

Hunter Biden's surprise appearance at a House hearing yesterday was a closely held secret, set up by his team to show he's willing to publicly testify before Congress — and tweak Republicans who say he's not cooperative.

  • Republicans struggled to answer why they didn't allow Hunter to testify, Axios' Alex Thompson reports.

Hunter's team didn't loop in White House aides about his plans.

  • Aides "were surprised to see him appearing in the hearing room," one person familiar with the situation said.
  • Hunter's team believed that it was in the interests of both the White House and Hunter not to involve President Biden's aides in the team's strategy conversations.

📺 Fox News' Dana Perino said of Hunter's appearance: "If you're going to do a stunt, it was a pretty good one."

🚨 Informant charged with making up Biden bribes

The special counsel investigating Hunter Biden charged an FBI informant with fabricating bribery claims about President Biden and his son.

  • Why it matters: The revelations undermine the House GOP's impeachment inquiry against President Biden, which has cited claims made by the informant, Axios' Rebecca Falconer writes.

What's happening: Prosecutors allege Alexander Smirnov, 43, falsely told FBI agents that officials with the Ukrainian energy company Burisma paid the Bidens $5 million each in 2015 or 2016.

  • The 37-page indictment by special counsel David Weiss — unsealed yesterday — doesn't specifically name the Bidens. It instead identifies them as "Public Official 1" and his son, "Businessperson 1."

🔎 Between the lines: Prosecutors suggested Smirnov was politically motivated, citing "a series of messages expressing bias against" Biden when he was the Democratic nominee in 2020.

  • House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer (R-Ky.) downplayed the importance of the informant: "To be clear, the impeachment inquiry is not reliant" on Smirnov.

🔮 What's next: Hunter Biden is scheduled to appear before the House Oversight and Judiciary Committees committees for a deposition Feb. 28.

Hunter Biden hits back

Russian intelligence has entered the story on the indicted FBI informant who was a witness in the Hunter Biden probe, Axios' Sareen Habeshian reports.

  • Alexander Smirnov said "officials associated with Russian intelligence" were involved in passing a story about Hunter Biden, according to a Justice Department memo released Tuesday.
  • Smirnov is being charged by special counsel David Weiss, who is overseeing the Hunter Biden investigation. Prosecutors allege Smirnov falsely told FBI agents in June 2020 that officials with Ukrainian company Burisma paid Hunter Biden and his father, President Biden, $5 million each in 2015 or 2016.

Between the lines: In a filing of his own, Hunter Biden's lawyers asked a judge to force Weiss to turn over evidence on whether any tips from Smirnov played a role in blowing up Biden's plea deal, CNN reports.

  • "The discussion about the scope of the immunity agreement appears shaped by the prosecution's investigation of the Smirnov allegations," Biden's lawyers wrote.

🚨 Feds: Biden informant claimed Russia ties

A former FBI informant, charged with making false bribery claims involving President Biden and his son Hunter, told federal officials he has ties to high-level Russian agents.

  • Why it matters: Alexander Smirnov insisted that "officials associated with Russian intelligence were involved" in passing along a story about Hunter Biden, prosecutors write.

The memo says the former informant bragged about:

  1. Numerous contacts with a Russian official who "purportedly controls two groups of individuals tasked with carrying out assassination efforts in a third-party country."
  2. Attending an overseas meeting with a "high-ranking member of a specific Russian foreign intelligence service" about a potential resolution to the war in Ukraine.
  3. Being told that Russian intelligence intercepted "several calls placed by prominent U.S. persons the Russian government may use as 'kompromat' in the 2024 election." FBI investigators deemed a similar story relayed by Smirnov to be false.

In a separate filing, Hunter Biden's lawyers argued that the "rabbit hole of lies" allegedly told by the indicted FBI informant has infected the criminal case against the president's son, Axios' Sareen Habeshian reports.
