Some of the charges related to that investigation needed to\u2062 be venued out of the district, and \u200che \u200bdescribed \u2062the \u200blogistical support that he needed,\u201d\u200d Graves said.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Graves explained that Weiss had\u200c contacted him in \u200dFebruary or March 2022 to discuss the case. The phone call \u200blasted \u200babout 10 minutes, during which\u2062 Graves\u2063 offered logistical support, including \u200carranging a\u2064 grand jury in Washington.<\/p>\n<p>Contrary to allegations \u2062that Graves blocked or refused\u200c to partner with Weiss, \u2062Graves stated that he had asked Weiss whether he wanted \u200dadministrative\u2064 support or a joint investigation. Weiss indicated that he wanted \u2062support at a minimum, but further discussion was possible.<\/p>\n<p>Graves then met with the \u2064head of the criminal division in\u200d the Washington office and instructed them to\u200d seek a briefing from the \u200cDelaware office, \u2062which was handling the Hunter Biden case. After\u2064 receiving the \u2062briefing, Graves and his staff decided not to partner with Weiss.<\/p>\n<p>Graves emphasized\u2062 that \u200dthe decision not \u200cto partner with Weiss was made by his\u2062 office, not Weiss. He explained that\u200d partnering \u2064with another U.S. attorney would introduce complications\u2064 and potential disagreements.<\/p>\n<p>Graves acknowledged that the option of partnering with Weiss was rare and only considered due to the complex nature \u200cof the alleged\u200b crimes. He also clarified \u200cthat his office would typically either take over \u2062the case\u200d or \u200cgrant special attorney\u200c status\u2064 to prosecutors working \u2062within \u2063the Washington jurisdiction.<\/p>\n<p>Graves&#8217;s involvement\u200b in the case \u2064spanned about three weeks, during which he moved quickly\u2063 to assess the \u2062situation and make a decision. He noted that timing issues were raised \u200dby whistleblowers, who expressed concerns about the statute of \u200dlimitations expiring for\u2063 certain charges.<\/p>\n<p>While Graves declined \u2062to provide specific details about\u2063 the case, he confirmed that he \u200dhad\u200d conversations with his staff \u2064to ensure Weiss knew he had support and \u200da &#8220;green light&#8221; to\u200b work\u200b in Washington.<\/p>\n<p>Graves&#8217;s refusal to disclose the names of \u200bindividuals \u2064at the March\u200c 19 \u2064meeting \u200dled to a tense exchange with a \u2062GOP committee aide.\u2062 He\u200c cited concerns \u200cabout\u2062 threats his staff had already received and suggested the \u200bcommittee consult \u2064with \u200dthe DOJ&#8217;s Office of Legislative Affairs for the \u200bnames.<\/p>\n<p>As for the\u200b charges\u200b against Hunter \u2064Biden, \u2064Weiss is expected to bring additional charges for the 2017 and 2018 tax years.

According \u200cto \u200cGraves, \u200cthe \u2063purpose of the briefing \u2064was \u2064to determine if a joint investigation would be feasible and \u2063beneficial.<\/p>\n<p>During the interview with the House Judiciary Committee, Graves emphasized \u2062that at no point did he refuse to cooperate with Weiss\u2062 or express any concerns about \u200bmoving forward with\u2062 the \u2064case. He reiterated that he offered his full support \u200dand even took proactive steps to facilitate a\u200d potential joint investigation.<\/p>\n<p>The whistleblower claims of \u2064preferential treatment for Hunter Biden arise from the fact that\u2064 the\u2063 charges\u200c against him were ultimately not pursued in Washington, \u200bD.C. Instead, they \u2064were venued out of the district, meaning \u200bthey were transferred to a different jurisdiction. This\u2063 decision, according to Graves, was\u2064 made by\u2062 senior officials in the\u200b Department of Justice, not \u200dby \u2064him or Weiss.<\/p>\n<p>Graves\u2062 stated \u2063that he learned about\u2064 the decision to transfer \u200bthe\u200b case in late March from Weiss himself. \u200cHe emphasized that\u200b he\u2064 had no involvement in or knowledge of the decision-making process behind that choice.<\/p>\n<p>The\u200c <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/don-jr-i-wont-jump-on-bandwagon-to-cancel-sen-cruz\/\" title=\"Don Jr.: I won\u2019t jump on bandwagon to cancel Sen.
