Biden says Meadows seems 'worthy of being held in contempt'
(CNN)President Joe Biden on Wednesday suggested Mark Meadows was "worthy" of being in held in contempt of Congress after the Democratic-controlled House referred the ex-White House chief of staff to the Department of Justice for failing to appear for a deposition with the committee investigating the January 6 attack on the US Capitol.
The House formally referred Meadows, former President Donald Trump's final White House chief of staff, to the Department of Justice for criminal contempt of Congress in a 222-208 vote late Tuesday night. Two Republicans who sit on the select committee, Reps. Liz Cheney of Wyoming and Adam Kinzinger of Illinois, voted with all Democrats in favor of the referral.
"I don't know enough -- just what I've seen, I have not spoken to anyone. It seems to me he's worthy of being held in contempt," he said.
The comment from Biden is notable given that the decision about whether to charge Meadows with criminal contempt of Congress is now in front of Attorney General Merrick Garland and the Department of Justice. Biden has repeatedly pledged to keep his Justice Department free from political influence after Trump spent years commenting on federal criminal cases and investigations, often being accused of using his platform to influence proceedings.

Hey, isn't this Biden fellow the same guy who called Rittenhouse a "White Supremacist?" And isn't this the same guy who said Jussie Smollett was innocent and someone needed to be held accountable?
Just wondering what his track record is.

I wonder in about a year if the Republicans will find Hunter Biden in contempt, not just as we generally already do.

as stupid a comment as when Nixon declared charles manson guilty during the Helter Skelter trial and when obama had made his "the Police acted stupidly" comment
