Rep. Jared Moskowitz (D-Fla.) unleashed jokes on House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer (R-Ky.) with the help of a dog to sniff out a Biden family probe informant the Republican claimed may have gone “missing.”
Comer, pressing unproven GOP claims that President Joe Biden and son Hunter Biden have been “influence peddling” and reaped over $10 million from foreign sources before Biden’s presidency, told Fox News viewers on Sunday that his investigation’s key informant can’t be located, preventing Republicans from unveiling evidence backing up their allegations.
Moskowitz, a Democratic minority member of the committee, joked in a video posted on Twitter that hound dog Stanley could help track down the informant.
“He has lost the fake Biden informant, misplaced him, doesn’t know where he is, so I have brought in a hound and we are going to try and go find Chairman Comer’s missing fake Biden informant,” Moskowitz said before the leashed pet pulled him down the halls of the Longworth House Office Building.
Moskowitz’s stunt adds to his trolling of Comer. On Monday, he shared a faux missing person poster with a stick figure sketch of the “informant.”
“I know you’ve got stuff going on, you’re trying to find the fake informant who’s gone missing,” Moskowitz told Comer on Tuesday as he pointed to his stick figure poster.
“But I’m hoping that perhaps the Oversight Committee — if they’re so worried about federal overreach — perhaps they can start being focused on real government oversight.”
Comer, in response to Moskowitz, said the “whistleblower” was “alive and well.”
