House Oversight Committee to issue 'two dozen' subpoenas to Biden family for overseas business dealings

The Biden family will be served with about "two dozen" subpoenas in the "very near future," according to House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer (R-Ky.). The Republican said he thinks it could be a "big week" for the case.

Rep. Comer was speaking to Fox News' Maria Bartiromo on "Sunday Morning Futures" and told the host that he thinks there will be "swift action on Biden, and I would predict somewhere around two dozen subpoenas in the very near future."

The comments came just days after the House committee released evidence of a $40,000 payment to Joe Biden from 2017 that went through multiple entities, including a Chinese company.

According to Comer, a Chinese company called Northern International wired $5 million to Hudson West III, a company established in part by Hunter Biden. That company then sent $400,000 to an entity owned and controlled by Hunter Biden, before transferring another $150,000 to Lion Hall Group.

Lion Hall Group is owned by James and Sarah Biden, the president's brother and sister-in-law, who then withdrew $50,000 in cash from the company. Later that same day, Sarah Biden deposited the money into her and James Biden's personal checking account and then cut a $40,000 check to Joe Biden.

The memo line of the check said "loan repayment."

The House Committee has referred to the money as "laundered China money."

"You wouldn't know about all the money that we're going to show that James Biden took in and Hunter Biden took in from loans," Comer said, according to NewsMax. "It's an integral part of money laundering, where you deceive the IRS about the revenue you're taking. In other words, you're a tax cheat."

"This was very organized," Comer continued. "And the reason they did these complicated transactions was to disguise the source of the revenue and to deceive the IRS from paying taxes."

During the investigation process, Comer said the oversight committee has been obstructed all along the way.

"The IRS is obstructed. The DOJ is obstructed. The Treasury has obstructed. FBI has obstructed, and the Democrats on the House Oversight Committee have pretty much been the Biden legal defense team," he said.

President Biden has repeatedly denied having connection to his son Hunter's business dealings overseas, including denying in June 2023 that he was present during Hunter's text message exchange with a Chinese businessman.

"I am sitting here with my father and we would like to understand why the commitment made has not been fulfilled," one of the text messages said.
