The Harvard and UPenn presidents walked into a trap in Congress, December 11, 2023

Hunter Biden is insisting on an open hearing because the RWEs in Congress are determined to build a case regardless of the facts.

"A loaded question is a form of complex question that contains a controversial assumption. Such questions may be used as a rhetorical tool: the question attempts to limit direct replies to be those that serve the questioner's agenda. The traditional example is the question "Have you stopped beating your wife?" Whether the respondent answers yes or no, they will admit to having beaten their wife at some time in the past."

Whether one answers or declines to answer, they lose if they respond at all.
