It turns out that Rep. James Comer (R-KY) has abused the power of his office and engaged in shady land deals and loans with his brother.
The Daily Beast reported:
According to Kentucky property records, Comer and his own brother have engaged in land swaps related to their family business. In one deal – which also involved $200,000 and a shell company – the more powerful and influential Comer funneled additional money to his brother, seemingly out of nowhere. Other recent land swaps were quickly followed by new applications for special tax breaks, state data show. All this is astonishingly related to the activities of a family business that on paper seems never to have existed.
But unlike the Bidens, Comer’s own history borders on a conflict of interest between his official government role and his private family business — and that has been going on for decades.
Comer held agricultural supervisory positions while running a family business from 2003 to 2019. Comer only stopped overseeing agriculture when his family business turned away from farming.
According to Rep.’s definition. Comer, his dealings involving his brother look shady.
The political implications of this bombshell are that James Comer is now conflicted and has allegedly engaged in the same behavior he is accusing President Biden of.
The revelation shatters the idea that any impeachment under Comer’s watch will be taken seriously by anyone. Biden’s impeachment initially made no sense, but now that the Oversight Committee Chairman Comer appears corrupt, it could be completely dead.
