The GOP has had enough, and they are finally going all in on going after Hunter Biden, President Joe Biden’s son over allegations regarding Hunter’s dirty deals with China.
According to Fox News, over 30 Senate Republicans are now calling on Attorney General Merrick Garland to give the prosecutor investigating Hunter Biden special counsel authority as the investigation into the president’s son heats up.
In a letter led by Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, Judiciary Committee Ranking Member Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, and Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, (R-KY), the senators warn of potential political interference in the high-profile probe being conducted by Delaware U.S. Attorney David Weiss, a prosecutor appointed by former President Donald Trump. The senators plan to send the letter later Monday, Cornyn’s office told Fox News Digital.
“As detailed by Senator Grassley, ‘highly credible’ whistleblower have come forward to detail a ‘widespread effort within the FBI to downplay or discredit negative information about’ Hunter Biden,” the letter reads. “Instead of encouraging FBI and DOJ whistleblower to report crimes and promote government transparency, you took the inexplicable step of chilling lawful whistleblower activity.”
It continues: “Indeed, on August 30, 2022… you issued a memorandum prohibiting DOJ and FBI employees from communicating with ‘Senators, Representatives, congressional committees, or congressional staff without advance coordination, consultation and approval by OLA.’”
HUNTER BIDEN SPECIAL COUNCIL AUTHORITY LETTER:
Fox News said the letter comes after a source told Fox in July the Hunter Biden investigation has reached a “critical stage,” with officials weighing possible charges for tax violations, possible foreign lobbying violations, and more.
President Joe Biden on Sunday during an intense interview with 60 Minutes, told the reporter that he has no knowledge or concern over Hunter Biden or the allegations against him. Biden has repeatedly claimed that he has had zero influence in his son’s business dealings overseas.
