Republican Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) has delivered on his promise and announced the first real investigation into Democrat President Joe Biden and his son Hunter after the GOP takes the House.
During a Thursday press conference, Jordan and Republican Rep. James Comer (R-KY) alleged that President Biden was actively involved in overseas business dealings involving his son Hunter.
The two lawmakers vowed to get to the bottom of the Biden family business dealings now that the GOP has taken control of the House.
Comer said whistleblowers have come forward to allege that the Biden family “flourished and became millionaires by simply offering access to the family.”
“This is an investigation of Joe Biden,” Comer said before alleging that Hunter Biden and Joe Biden participated in “waste, fraud, and abuse” in their business dealings.
Jordan said:
“First, it wasn’t Hunter’s laptop. Then they admitted it was his laptop, but argued it was Russian “disinformation.”
“Then they admitted it wasn’t disinfo, but assured us Joe Biden wasn’t involved.
“Now, it looks like Joe was involved, but they’re telling us he did nothing wrong.”
Rep. @JamesComer: “We find evidence that Hunter Biden and Joe Biden were involved in a scheme to try to get China to buy liquified natural gas.”

“Excellent press conference by @Jim_Jordan & @JamesComer about oversight plans for the new Republican Congress.
“They are prepared to hold the Biden administration accountable!
“They have 14 FBI whistleblowers… and it’s not even day one yet!”

One big problem they will have is getting the Democrat-controlled Department of Justice and the White House to cooperate.
They can subpoena whoever they want, but if Attorney General Merrick Garland won’t enforce the subpoenas, there’s little they can do about it.
