House Oversight Chairman James Comer is offering new details that he and his fellow Republicans say support allegations that the Biden family received millions of dollars in payments from foreign entities in China and Romania, including when Joe Biden was vice president, CNN reported.
“New bank records cited in the memo were obtained by the committee through a subpoena and include payments made to companies tied to Hunter Biden,” CNN’s report stated. “Republicans also alleged that Hunter Biden used his familial connections to help facilitate a meeting in 2016 between a Serbian running for United Nations Secretary-General and then-national security adviser to the vice president Colin Kahl.”
During an appearance on Fox News this Thursday, Comer was challenged by Fox & Friends host Steve Doocey, who accused him of not having any clear evidence that President Biden committed any crimes.
“I know the Republicans said that the smoking gun were these financial records that you were able to subpoena and got your hands on. They show that some of the president’s relatives were paid more than $10 million from foreign sources between 2015 and 2017,” Doocey said. “And your party, the Republican investigators, say that that’s proof of influence peddling by Hunter and James. But that’s just your suggestion. You don’t actually have any facts to that point. You have got some circumstantial evidence.”
“And the other thing is of all those names, the one person who didn’t profit is – there’s no evidence that Joe Biden did anything illegally,” Doocey added.
