House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer alleged Thursday that his panel had uncovered new monetary accounts related to his investigation of the Biden family and introduced a recent subpoena towards an unnamed financial institution.
“This morning I issued a subpoena for focused monetary info from a sure monetary establishment associated to [first brother] Jim Biden, [his wife] Sarah Biden, and [first son] Hunter Biden,” Comer (R-Ky.) announced on Fox Enterprise Community’s “Mornings with Maria.”
Comer, who’s main the eight-month-old impeachment inquiry into President Biden, defined that the subpoena stemmed from materials turned over by Hunter’s former longtime enterprise partner Devon Archer.
“We consider we discovered new accounts, and keep in mind, the variety of financial institution accounts that we’ve found over the previous 12 months and a half … is unbelievable,” Comer instructed Bartiromo.
Comer expressed hope that his newest subpoena would “reply some extra questions” and teased that the top of the investigation is close to.
“Hopefully this subpoena can be a number of the final bits of data that we have now to have to have the ability to finalize this report back to the American individuals,” he stated.
The chairman added that “we’re within the ultimate levels” of the inquiry and that the panel will “hopefully” launch a report on its findings “very quickly.”
When pressed about whether or not he had uncovered any financial institution accounts that have been tied on to President Biden, Comer admitted that linking the president to his household cash had been “a more durable nut to crack.”
“On the finish of the day, the Biden household have been those that have been taking the preliminary wires and laundering them via,” he stated.
President Biden, the White Home, and attorneys for members of the primary household have steadfastly denied Comer’s characterizations of these transactions.
It’s unclear whether or not Home Republicans have the votes to question the president, however Comer has previously teased that legal referrals are within the works.
Again in late March, Comer invited Joe Biden to testify about his household’s affairs and laid out a list of questions.
The White Home slapped down that provide and Comer instructed Bartiromo “we’ve not heard again” when requested about his invitation.
