Heh. Republican says "The dog ate my 'Biden scandal' homework."

https://www.rawstory.com/james-comer-informant/
Rep. James Comer (R-KY) revealed on Sunday that Republicans had lost track of a top witness in the investigation of President Joe Biden and his family.

During an interview on Fox News, host Maria Bartiromo asked Comer about evidence he had of Biden's alleged corruption.

"You have spoken with whistleblowers," she noted. "You also spoke with an informant who gave you all of this information. Where is that informant today? Where are these whistleblowers?"

"Well, unfortunately, we can't track down the informant," Comer replied. "We're hopeful that the informant is still there. The whistleblower knows the informant. The whistleblower is very credible."


And the Church Lady says, "How convenient!"

This is right up there with "My cousin told me he knew a guy."

Lou Dobbs Complains ‘Actual Proof’ of Election Fraud Is Too Hard to Find

snip...

During his Fox Business broadcast Monday evening, Trump loyalist Lou Dobbs inadvertently told on himself when he asked why there is still no concrete evidence that proves the 2020 election was stolen from the outgoing president.

Eight weeks from the election, and we still don’t have verifiable, tangible support for the crimes that everyone knows were committed,” Dobbs said. “That is, defrauding other citizens who voted with fraudulent votes. We know that’s the case in Nevada, we know it’s the case in Pennsylvania and a number of other states, but we have had a devil of a time finding actual proof. Why?


It would be hilarious except that 40% of our fellow citizens are willing to believe total lies based on zero evidence because it's what they want to believe.

Maybe Comer’s informant is hiding out with the Tooth Fairy and the Easter Bunny.

My guess is these '2' even if they exist are not telling the truth.
