House Oversight and Judiciary committees are currently conducting a closed-door interview with James Biden, brother of President Joe Biden, as part of the Republicans’ impeachment inquiry. The focus of the inquiry is on James Biden’s business dealings, specifically loans he received from his brother and whether the president used his influence to benefit him.
Hunter Biden, son of Joe Biden, is also scheduled to appear for his own interview on Feb. 28 after a lengthy dispute over logistics. James Biden has denied any involvement from the president in his business ventures and emphasized that he repaid all loans from his brother. He has argued that his cooperation with the probe should put the investigation to rest.
Prosecutors recently revealed that a former FBI informant charged with providing false information about the Bidens claimed to have received some information from officials associated with Russian intelligence. Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer has issued subpoenas to both James and Hunter Biden, accusing the Biden family of engaging in shady business practices.
In response, the White House has pushed back on these claims of wrongdoing, pointing to a lack of evidence provided by Republicans. The investigation continues to unfold, with both James and Hunter Biden at the center of the controversy. Stay tuned to Heartland Magazine for further updates on this developing story.
