True to his word, House Oversight Chair Rep. James Comer (R-KY) and his committee held a press conference 9am Wednesday morning to update Americans on the investigation into Joe Biden.
And boy did they have a lot to say —and none of it good for Ol’ Joe.
The committee released a memo ahead of the presser.
From Fox News:
The House Oversight and Accountability Committee says the Biden family and its business associates created more than 20 companies and received more than $10 million from foreign nationals while Joe Biden served as vice president, and that some of these payments could indicate attempts by the Biden family to “peddle influence.”
Committee Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., released a memo ahead of his press conference Wednesday that includes new information from his investigation into the Biden family’s “influence peddling and business schemes.” The memo said the Biden family appeared to take steps to “conceal the source and total amount received from the foreign companies.”
The committee has subpoenaed four different banks as part of its probe and received “thousands of records in response.” Those subpoenas were “tailored to specific individuals and companies that engaged in business activities with Biden family members and their business associates,” the memo said.
It said Biden family members and business associates “created a web of over 20 companies — most were limited liability companies formed during Joe Biden’s vice presidency.”
The committee said those companies were formed mostly in Delaware and Washington, D.C., with the help of Hunter Biden’s business partners Rob Walker and James Gilliar.
“After assuming the vice presidency in 2009, records reveal Hunter Biden and his business associates formed at least 15 companies,” the memo said. Those companies include Lion Hall Group LLC; Owasco P.C.; Robinson Walker, LLC; Skaneateles, LLC; Seneca Global Advisors, LLC; Rosemont Seneca Partners, LLC; Rosemont Seneca Principal Investments LLC; Rosemont Seneca Bohai, LLC; Hudson West III, LLC; Hudson West V, LLC; CEFC Infrastructure Investment (US) and others.
“Bank records show the Biden family, their business associates, and their companies received over $10 million from foreign nationals’ companies,” the memo said, adding that the committee identified payments to Biden family members from foreign companies “while Joe Biden served as Vice President and after he left public office.”
“[T]he Biden family used business associates’ companies to receive millions of dollars from foreign companies,” the memo said, adding that the Biden family “received incremental payments over time to different bank accounts.”
Nine Biden family members have been implicated in the schemes.
Rep @JamesComer says NINE Bidens are implicated in corruption:
