A great deal of the things congress seems to investigate are stupid. Like the whole baseball and steroids thing. And most of the rest of their investigations are dog and pony shows.
There aren't many if any cases of them targeting an individual citizen with zero role in government over simple crimes.
This was done because the GOP is a clown show and needs to put on spectacles to entertain their supporters. Hunter Biden shoukd have been in a court like any other private citizen.
Baseball and steroids was a pet issue for GWB as I recall and if I recall correctly he woukd have pursued that had he become commissioner instead of POTUS.
