House panel invites Hunter Biden to testify on alleged influence-peddling; Biden declines, calls it a 'side show'
-
House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer invited Hunter Biden and 3 associates to testify at a hearing on March 20 about alleged influence peddling.
-
Hunter Biden's lawyer said he would not attend, calling it a "carnival side show" and an "attempt to throw a Hail Mary pass."
-
Comer said the hearing will still happen "with or without Mr. Biden" to examine inconsistencies in past testimonies.
-
Hunter Biden previously testified for over 6 hours and denied his father was involved in his foreign deals.
-
Comer said parts of Hunter Biden's testimony contradict statements by his associates, and the public deserves accountability.
