Justice Department Resists Subpoenas for Attorneys in Hunter Biden Probe, Calls Request Irrelevant
- Justice Department resists House Judiciary Committee subpoenas for testimony from 4 attorneys involved in Hunter Biden investigation
- Subpoenas target U.S. Attorney for D.C. Matthew Graves, former Delaware prosecutor Lesley Wolf, and 2 DOJ tax division line attorneys
- DOJ says attorneys lack relevance to impeachment probe, committee has already questioned special counsel and other key figures
- DOJ pushes back on GOP claims of political interference, says special counsel had authority over investigation
- DOJ asks committee to defer enforcement of subpoenas, send written questions first, allow DOJ lawyers to advise attorneys
