House Committee Moves to Hold Hunter Biden in Contempt for Dodging Deposition on Foreign Business Dealings
• House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer unveiled a contempt of Congress resolution for Hunter Biden for dodging his deposition before the panel.
• The resolution would allow the House Speaker to take action to enforce the subpoena issued to Hunter Biden, including referring him for criminal prosecution.
• Hunter Biden appeared on Capitol Hill the same day with his attorney to deliver a plea for sympathy against federal indictments charging him with illegal gun possession and tax fraud.
• Hunter's attorney had demanded he be allowed a public hearing rather than a private deposition, accusing the committee of distorting facts.
• The committee has evidence suggesting President Biden knew of, participated in, and profited from Hunter's foreign business dealings, which they intended to question him about.
