Hunter Biden and his uncle James Biden have been subpoenaed Wednesday by the House Oversight Committee, which took the remarkable step of seeking depositions from family members of President Biden amid its impeachment inquiry.

As part of the request, the committee asked for James Biden’s wife, Sarah Biden, as well as Hunter Biden’s wife, Melissa Cohen, to sit for transcribed interviews. The panel also asks for interviews with Hallie Biden, the widow of Beau Biden, and her sister Elizabeth Secundy. 

 

The subpoenas come weeks after the Oversight Committee demanded both Hunter and James Biden’s personal bank records, and also include a subpoena for Hunter Biden’s former business partner Rob Walker.

The panel is also requesting to speak with Tony Bobulinski, whom Hunter Biden’s attorney have accused of lying to the FBI.

The release from House Oversight Chair James Comer (R-Ky.) said he “plans to send additional subpoenas and transcribed interview requests later this week.”

The move to compel their testimony comes the day after special counsel David Weiss, the U.S. attorney for Delaware who is investigating Hunter Biden, sat for a voluntary interview with lawmakers on the House Judiciary Committee, another panel in the trio leading the investigation.

The subpoenas are the first major move since the election of Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.), who has backed efforts to impeach President Biden even as he’s spoken of the need to use the congressional power sparingly. 

The White House pointed to the challenge of electing Johnson and an impending government shutdown in dismissing the subpoenas as a “smear campaign” against the president.

So, nothing on Joe Biden.

 

I will be sure not to vote for Hunter Biden in the next election.

 

It's funny how you guys always say "Biden family" rather than "Hunter Biden". "Biden family" carries the implication that Joe Biden is involves.

 

Your Internet masters have trained you well.

 

You might want to check the title of the thread.:laugh:

But not Joe Biden.

 

And only Hunter has been accused of a crime.

 

I never mentioned Joe. You did. :laugh:

 

I mentioned the Biden family, which as I have already pointed out is the topic of the thread. Do try to keep up, it's really not that complicated.

subpoenas are not supposed to be issued until the full House votes.

Comer says he will proceed for about 20 individuals to be called.

Best part is the DOJ would have to decide to enforce Ha Ha Ha Ha!

Speaker Johnson has ‘softened’ his language about Biden’s impeachment: Monica Crowley | Fox News Video

If the full House approves subpoenas, DoD *should* enforce them.

 

But the way things are going, Comey may subpoena himself.

Once again I have to ask all the adamant and denying posters why they can be so hateful against one criminal yet so lenient toward another potential criminal... where do they draw their line on investigating one over the other... what would be so wrong in their minds to go after every criminal with equal gusto???  It's an "investigation" so why not follow the leads and weigh the evidence???
