Panel requests that the president’s son and brother appear for depositions as a part of the committee’s investigation into the Biden family’s finances.
Wilmington, DE - July 26 : President Joe Biden’s son Hunter Biden departs a court appearance at the J. Caleb Boggs Federal Building on Wednesday, July 26, 2023, in Wilmington, DE. The GOP-led House Oversight Committee issued subpoenas for Hunter Biden and James Biden on Wednesday, requesting that the president’s son and brother appear for depositions as a part of the committee’s investigation into the Biden family’s finances, according to a spokesperson for the committee.
The subpoenas come after Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer has raised questions about a 2018 personal check Joe Biden received from his brother James. The check obtained by the committee showed the words “loan repayment” written on the front, and documents provided to The Washington Post show that Biden transferred $200,0000 to his brother on Jan. 12, 2018.Comer, however, has continued to dispute that the check was a loan repayment.
The Oversight Committee has spent month investigating Hunter Biden’s work as a consultant and lawyer. Investigators have obtained more than 12,000 pages of financial records and conducted interviews with individuals who worked closely with Hunter Biden in various capacities.
“We write today to urge you, Mr. Speaker, to use your newly minted leadership post responsibly and ask you to think twice before joining this spectacle,” Lowell wrote, in a letter obtained by The Post.
Comer also plans to issue a subpoena for Rob Walker, a former Hunter Biden business associate, and issued voluntarily requests to other Biden family members and business associates to appear before the committee for transcribed interviews.
