Two Republican committee chairmen have widened their investigation into President Joe Biden after they suspect he may have attempted to hinder his son Hunter Biden’s cooperation with the House’s impeachment investigation. The GOP leaders, Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer of Kentucky and Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan of Ohio, honed in on an officiaI White House statement suggesting that President Biden knew about Hunter’s plot to ignore congressional subpoenas in advance.
According to a joint statement issued by the chairmen: In light of an official statement from the White House that President Biden was aware in advance that his son, Hunter Biden, would knowingly defy two congressionaI subpoenas, we are compelled to examine as part of our impeachment inquiry whether the President engaged in a conspiracy to obstruct a proceeding of Congress.
In a letter to Edward Siskel, an assistant to Biden and the White House Counsel’s Office, the two GOP Ieaders noted:
Accordingly, and pursuant to the impeachment inquiry, please produce the following information for the period January 20, 2021, to the present:
1. All documents and communications sent or received by employees of the Executive Office of the President regarding the deposition of Hunter Biden, including but not Iimited to communications with Hunter Biden, Winston & Strawn LLP, and Kevin Morris; and
2. All documents and communications sent or received by employees of the Executive Office of the President regarding President Biden’s statement about his famiIy’s business associates on December 6, 2023. Please produce this information as soon as possible but no later than January 10, 2024.
