- Frustrated already by bureaucratic stonewalling, House investigators are picking their first fight to compel evidence from the Biden administration by pressuring the Treasury Department to release suspicious activity reports filed by banks that flagged concerning business transactions involving Hunter Biden and his business associates.
- Rep. James Comer (R-Ky.), the chairman of the House Oversight and Accountability Committee, told Just the News that he has summoned a top Treasury Department official to a hearing this week to explain why the agency is unwilling to release SARs, a prelude to a possible subpoena and financial punishment of the department.
- He accused the administration of trying to delay critical evidence until after the 2024 election.
- “That’s their whole strategy: run out the clock, run out the clock,” he told the “Just the News, No Noise” television show over the weekend. “You know, they want the subpoena. It goes to court. … They’re just sitting on the ball. They wan’t the clock to expire.”
