Hunter Biden’s lawyer, Abbe Lowell, You replied with a response The oversight panel agreed. “lacks a legitimate legislative purpose and oversight basis for requesting such records from Mr. Biden, who is a private citizen.”

Hunter Biden is being investigated by federal prosecutors for tax crimes, among other things. The First Son said that he is. Certain He will be freed from any wrongdoing.

On Sunday, Comer said any legislation Congress comes up with can be bipartisan, acknowledging how Democrats have raised concerns about the foreign business dealings of former President Donald Trump’s family. In particular, Stephanopoulos mentioned Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner and His ties with the Saudis.

The lawmakers can’t get to a “bipartisan legislative solution” until “we know the extent of what the Biden family influence peddling involved, especially with respect to Communist China,” Comer, he said.
