OPINION:
Before Rep. James Comer, Kentucky Republican, begins investigating Hunter Biden, he needs to take a good look in the mirror.
When Mr. Comer ran for Kentucky governor in 2015, his college girlfriend came forth with allegations of physical and emotional abuse. She said that whenever Mr. Comer thought she did something wrong, the consequences were swift and violent and the relationship was toxic. The girlfriend’s roommate often saw bruises on her, and her mother reported Mr. Comer calling and saying that her daughter was going to be killed. This investigation was shut down when Mr. Comer and his lawyer threatened devastating lawsuits against newspapers that reported the story. His lawyer shamed the young lady so much that she moved out of state.
Why am I so interested in Mr. Comer? He and a sycophant university friend of his attempted to limit my communication when I harshly yet legally criticized Mr. Comer for his aggressive defense of the most dangerous politician in our country. Clearly, that attempt did not work, and I will not be bullied by these two men, both of whom have been poisoned by power. As a Christian, I have zero hatred or bitterness toward either man, but little respect for either. Stop bullies before they stop you.
