IN CASE YOU MISSED IT
“The airplane vaping, body-building forum posting, legally challenged Congressman Hunter now wants to turn his child’s pet into a meal – all because he’s upset about a serious criminal investigation into his misuse of campaign funds,” said DCCC Spokesman Tyler Law. “It would seem more logical to just follow the law instead of killing your family pet.”

BunnyPAC Hopes to Thump Duncan Hunter on Rabbitgate
Roll Call

[…] VanDiver has dubbed the rabbit “Duncan Thumper” and plans to use him to explain Hunter’s alleged ethics violations.
“The purpose for Duncan Thumper is to explain from his perspective what each of these expenditures mean,” VanDiver said.
Hunter is currently facing a federal investigation and has reimbursed his campaign for the questioned expenses.
A spokesman in his office dismissed VanDiver’s stunt, saying that it wasn’t even Hunter’s rabbit — it was his children’s.
“If Hunter had his way, it would have been used for soup long before that,” the spokesman said in a statement.
Hunter is facing a challenge from Democrat Josh Butner, a retired Navy SEAL, in 2018, but his district is a reliably Republican one.
