House Republicans are blasting the plea deal between the DOJ and Hunter Biden — and warning it won’t derail their months-long investigation into the president and his family.
House Republicans are lambasting the plea deal between the Justice Department and Hunter Biden as proof of a federal law enforcement double standard — and warning it won’t derail their months-long investigation into the president and his family.
“Let’s be clear: the Department of Justice’s charges against President Biden’s son Hunter reveal a two-tiered system of justice. Hunter Biden is getting away with a slap on the wrist when growing evidence uncovered by the House Oversight Committee reveals the Bidens engaged in a pattern of corruption, influence peddling, and possibly bribery,” Comer said in a statement.
Comer’s team has already collected suspicious activity reports from the Treasury Department — which do not automatically indicate wrongdoing — tied to Hunter Biden and his business associates, as well as quietly subpoenaed a swath of bank documents. Committee staff is working to set up a closed-door deposition with Devon Archer, a former Hunter Biden business associate that Republicans hope will shed light on his business deals.
“House Republicans will not rest until the full illegal corruption of the Biden Crime Family is exposed. Joe Biden must and will be held accountable,” Stefanik said in a statement.
