A third aide who served former President Biden while he was in the White House has refused to testify before a congressional panel, House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform chair James Comer (R-Ky.) said on Friday.

Comer in a post on X said it was “unbelievable” that Annie Tomasini, who served as deputy director of Oval Office Operations, and others refused to answer “basic questions about … Biden’s fitness to serve.”

“It’s apparent they would rather hide key information to protect themselves and Joe Biden than be truthful with the American people about this historic scandal,” Comer said. “There needs to be transparency and accountability, and we will continue to pursue the truth and examine options to get the answers we need,” he added.

Comer said Tomasini invoked the Fifth Amendment when asked if she was instructed to lie about Biden’s health or the handling of classified documents found in his garage. She was also asked if the former president or anyone in the White House instructed her to conceal or destroy classified material found at Biden’s home or office, and if she ever conspired with anyone in the White House to hide information regarding the Biden family’s business dealings, the Republican lawmaker added.

There is "no there there". He has become the Darrell Issa of the 2020s. In fact a truism along that line, was how Obama had characterized Issa almost a decade ago, which applies to Comer -

Obama: Issa ‘not somebody who is serious about working on problems’

La Jolla, California CNN — President Barack Obama directed harsh criticism at Rep. Darrell Issa at a fundraiser Sunday in La Jolla, California, claiming the former House Oversight Committee chairman’s “primary contribution to the US Congress has been to obstruct and to waste taxpayer dollars on trumped up investigations that have led nowhere.”
