A lead GOP investigator has come out and stated that there could be several members of the Biden family that are involved in some of the sketchy business deals and ventures with entities in foreign nations, sharing a headcount that up to this point had remained unknown. Yeah, this is more than a couple, ladies and gentlemen. This shenanigans is truly looking like it was a family affair. So how many people are we talking about?
House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, a Kentucky Republican, started a media circuit on Wednesday evening and on Thursday morning where he provided an update concerning the committee’s investigation into the Biden family and their ties to rather shady looking business deals with foreign entities after being granted access to bank records and suspicious activity reports.
During an interview with Fox News host Laura Ingraham Wednesday evening, Comer went on to say that the evidence of influence peddling goes very deep into President Joe Biden’s family.
“At the end of this I think we’re gonna see there are probably six or seven Biden family members that were involved in various business schemes around the world,” Comer said, according to the Daily Wire.

The committee chairman then said that he knows their identities, however he declined to reveal them during the interview.
“When Comer appeared for another interview on Thursday morning with Fox Business anchor Maria Bartiromo, her show displayed a graphic showing Hunter Biden, the president’s brother James, and five blacked-out frames, each adorned with a big question mark,” the report said.
“President Biden has denied having involvement in the business dealings of his son Hunter and brother James. Federal prosecutors are investigating Hunter Biden over his foreign business dealings in countries such as China and Ukraine, tax affairs, and more. Though Hunter Biden has said he expects to be cleared of wrongdoing, Republicans have raised concerns about influence peddling, especially any that may include the president, spurred in part by findings on an abandoned laptop,” it added.
Democrats are concerned that Republicans are focused on doing “political opposition research” in order to benefit former President Donald Trump, who is running for president once again in 2024, however, Comer told Bartiromo during his appearance on her program that his team has already gathered information that shows a “concerning pattern to get suspicious amounts of money from our adversaries around the world.”
“Earlier this week, Comer announced the Treasury Department gave his panel access to suspicious activity reports, which financial institutions can use to flag possible criminal behavior, for the Biden family and their associates’ business transactions,” the Daily Wire reported.
House investigators were granted access to bank records which Comer said reveal John “Rob” Walker, who was previously identified as being a business partner of Hunter Biden’s in a venture with several executives from CEFC China Energy, was the recipient of a $3 million wire from two people that have connections to the Chinese Communist Party just two months after Joe Biden left the office of vice president back in 2017.
“Comer said Walker’s account started transferring money within a day to accounts for three different Biden family members, including one ‘new’ member who had not previously been tied to suspected influence schemes,” the report explained.
“What we’re finding out, Maria, is this Biden family business scheme involved a lot of members of the Biden family, none of whom had any experience in Chinese energy or Ukrainian energy deals,” he remarked.
Comer then said that he’s now familiar with 12 or 13 transactions and his team is planning to make a request for more bank records, saying, “We’re making a lot of progress in this investigation, and it doesn’t look good for the Biden family.”
