Rep. James Comer (R-Ky.)
If he wins the chairmanship of the powerful House Oversight and Government Reform Committee next January, he will methodically look to compel testimony from President Joe Biden's son and brother.
Another key Republican, Rep. Jim Jordan of Ohio, told "Just the News, Not Noise" he has specific information from FBI whistleblowers that agents and prosecutors have been engaged in political tampering with sensitive cases and have also been inflating statistics to make the domestic terrorism problem in the United States look worse than it is.
On the Hunter Biden probe, Comer questioned why the FBI has taken four years to decide whether to charge Hunter Biden with crimes.
Some Republicans are pressing for a special counsel to taker over the probe of the Biden family that has been led since 2018 by the U.S. Attorney's Office in Delaware
But Comer said he's not ready to support that move.
"I want to see the House Republicans have a bite at the apple first," he said.
- Two senior Republicans likely to chair House investigative
committees next year if the GOP wins control of Congress say they are
prepared to compel testimony from Hunter and James Biden about their
overseas business deals and to use the power of the purse to force the
FBI to address long-simmering questions about its integrity.
- On the Hunter Biden probe, Comer questioned why the FBI has taken four
years to decide whether to charge Hunter Biden with crimes, promising
Republicans will disclose the approximately 150 transactions that Hunter
Biden and other family members made over the last decade that were
flagged by U.S. banks.
- Comer stressed that the subpoena wasn't
an effort at further political embarrassment of an already-unpopular
president, but rather an attempt to address the legitimate national
security and ethics questions surrounding the Biden family's dealings
with companies in countries like Russia, China and Ukraine.
- James Comer (R-Ky.) told the "Just the News, Not Noise" television show on
Thursday night that if he wins the chairmanship of the powerful House
Oversight and Government Reform Committee next January, he will
methodically look to compel testimony from President Joe Biden's son and
brother.
