I don’t buy that nonsense. The truth is probably that the pressure has ramped up with more and more accusations being made and some evidence to support a further investigation being real the DOJ is backed into a corner and has to further investigate.

They can keep investigating as well just like the January 6th committee did. No need to see a boogeyman behind every tree unless you have evidence. If the special counsel ignores evidence the House uncovers then that would be a problem, but wait until you see how the process goes.buy it or not, it's happening
Attorney General Garland appoints a special counsel in Hunter Biden probe
U.S. Attorney David Weiss will be appointed special counsel in the ongoing probe of the president's son Hunter Biden.
Rep. James Comer, R-Ky., the chair of the House Oversight Committee who's been investigating the Biden family's business dealings, blasted Weiss's appointment as "part of the Justice Department's efforts to attempt a Biden family coverup."
"The Biden Justice Department is trying to stonewall congressional oversight as we have presented evidence to the American people about the Biden family’s corruption," Comer said.
Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, chair of the House Judiciary Committee, also ripped the appointment despite previously calling for a special counsel.
“David Weiss can’t be trusted and this is just a new way to whitewash the Biden family’s corruption. Weiss has already signed off on a sweetheart plea deal that was so awful and unfair that a federal judge rejected it," said his spokesperson, Russell Dye.
House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., echoed Comer and Jordan, tweeting, "This action by Biden’s DOJ cannot be used to obstruct congressional investigations or whitewash the Biden family corruption. If Weiss negotiated the sweetheart deal that couldn’t get approved, how can he be trusted as a Special Counsel?"
I was wondering if this was the same guy. No wonder House Reps are so ornery today.
If you want to break the spell Trump has them under, it starts with restoring credibility to a system that currently no one really believes is fair or impartial. How do you do that? I'll be damned if I know. If I did, I'd already be doing it. Fact is: cult45 does not believe this is a real investigation and do not believe that Joe will be held accountable even if something is found. The only way to change their minds is to prove them wrong and the only way to do that is to show them that the system works. Idiotic platitudes and demagoguery won't accomplish this; this is what got them where they are in the first place. Show it to them and stop trying to convince them with arguments. You might as well be arguing with a fence post.
i've already seen the idiocy the house has brought with this. i have no clue how the special counsel will proceed
Yes, Trumpers have always proven themselves to be easily convinced by reason and facts.
The ONLY thing I think matters to the GOP is that the name Biden is under investigation. They don't care a hill of beans if there's anything to this investigation in the end. The GOP just wants to paint the other team as crooks so they can whataboutism away from the crook-in-chief they can't seem to shed.
Meh, that's a generalization that applies to most people, not most Trumpers.
You do realize that most Reps feel this way about Dems, right? Maybe they're both wrong (I doubt it) or maybe they're both right (most probable) but the idea that one is embracing gestapo tactics while the other tries like hell to remain pure and virtuous is laugh-out-loud ridiculous.
Don't have to; it's observable behavior and I see it practically every day.
Now do a Venn diagram of Trumpers and Reps. You may have a breakthrough.
