In a letter to Chairman of the House Oversight and Accountability Committee James Comer on Wednesday, Maryland Democrat Jamie Raskin urged the chairman to “publicly reprimand” Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) for holding up nude photos of Hunter Biden engaging in sex acts during a televised hearing last week.
“Graphic unauthorized pictures of private citizens engaging in intimate sex acts were irrelevant to the putative subject of last Wednesday’s hearing,” Raskin said in the letter. “How did these pictures advance the stated purpose of the hearing? Surely, they did not. The pictures were entirely irrelevant.”
“I therefore urge you to publicly reprimand Rep. Greene by issuing a statement condemning her actions as an affront to the dignity, propriety, and decorum of the Committee,” he wrote.
During the July 19 hearing, Greene created a stir by displaying censored nude photos of Hunter involved in sexual acts with multiple women. She asserted the images depicted how Hunter allegedly paid for a prostitute’s travel from Los Angeles to Washington through his law firm, then wrote it off as a business expense.
Greene told Fox News Digital in an interview Thursday that Hunter “is not a private citizen.”
“He’s a public figure, he’s the president’s son,” Greene said. “He rolled up in a motorcade at court yesterday.”
“He uploaded those sex videos on multiple porn sites, and this is what Jamie Raskin wants me reprimanded for,” she added.
Republicans in the GOP-led House rallied behind Greene, and Comer dismissed Raskin’s letter. “It speaks to Ranking Member Raskin’s priorities that he is more concerned about Hunter Biden’s embarrassment than the young women he involved in his illegal activities,” Comer told Fox News Digital in a statement Thursday.
“I hope Ranking Member Raskin will join me in asking the Justice Department about Hunter Biden’s Mann Act violations and why the victims’ rights have been ignored,” Comer added.
