Comer Wants Answer On Whether Biden Classified Docs Involved Nations Where Hunter Did Business; Comer Demands Answers On Whether Biden Classified Records Mention Countries Related to Family Business Deals
Comer wants answer on whether Biden classified docs involved nations where Hunter did business:
House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer asked special counsel Robert Hur on Monday to divulge whether any classified documents improperly retained by President Biden following his vice presidency deal with countries where his son Hunter did business.
Comer (R-Ky.) also asked Hur to detail the scope of his office’s two-day interview with the president last week and “any limitations or scoping restrictions during the interview that would have precluded a line of inquiry regarding evidence (emails, text messages, or witness statements) directly linking Joe Biden to troublesome foreign payments.”
The Oversight Committee is one of three panels leading the impeachment inquiry into Biden’s role in his family’s foreign business dealings.
On Sept. 28, Comer subpoenaed the bank records of Hunter and first brother James Biden, who regularly involved Joe Biden in their business relationships.
“If any of the classified documents mishandled by President Biden involved countries or individuals that had financial dealings with Biden family members or their related companies, the Committee needs access to that information to evaluate whether our national security has been compromised,” Comer wrote to Hur.
“The Committee is concerned that President Biden may have retained sensitive documents related to specific countries involving his family’s foreign business.” —>READ MORE HERE
Comer demands answers on whether Biden classified records mention countries related to family business deals:
House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer is demanding answers from Special Counsel Robert Hur on whether the sensitive, classified documents President Biden retained were related to specific countries— countries that were involved in his family’s lucrative foreign business deals.
Comer, R-Ky., is investigating the Biden family’s foreign business dealings as part of the House impeachment inquiry, as well as Biden’s alleged mishandling of classified documents.
Comer, in a letter to Hur, who is investigating Biden’s alleged improper retention of classified records, said his committee has “developed significant evidence regarding President Biden’s retention of classified materials at Penn Biden Center.”
“As detailed in the Oversight Committee’s bank memoranda and Impeachment Inquiry Memorandum, evidence suggests President Biden may have used certain members of his family — particularly his son, Hunter Biden — to accumulate millions of dollars from foreign individuals and entities for the benefit of his family and himself,” Comer wrote to Hur. “Indeed, the Biden family received millions of dollars from foreign sources while President Biden served in public office and afterwards.”
Comer added, “If any of the classified documents mishandled by President Biden involved countries or individuals that had financial dealings with Biden family members or their related companies, the Committee needs access to that information to evaluate whether our national security has been compromised.”
Comer noted that Biden family members, their business associates and their “related companies” received “significant payments from individuals and companies in China, Russia, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, and Romania.” He also referred to “other evidence recently released by the Ways & Means Committee identified over 20 different countries with ties to the Biden family’s influence peddling schemes.”
Comer said the House Oversight Committee has learned throughout its investigation that the Biden family and their business associates brought in more than $24 million between 2014 and 2019 by “selling Joe Biden as ‘the brand’ around the world.” —>READ MORE HERE
