Republicans reacted Monday to a report that Hunter Biden's attorney Chris Clark had warned Justice Department prosecutors last fall that he would call President Joe Biden to the witness stand if they charged his client.
House chairmen leading the congressional investigation into Joe and Hunter Biden were among those to denounce the revelation, which surfaced through a trove of leaked emails to Politico over the weekend.“Hunter Biden’s attorneys’ threats to call Joe Biden to testify in his son’s legal defense is just another example of how the Bidens have used ‘the brand’ to receive privileges no other American would ever be given," Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer told the Washington Examiner.
A few weeks after a media report published on Oct. 6, 2022, that said prosecutors, led by now-special counsel David Weiss, had enough evidence to charge Hunter Biden with tax and gun crimes, Clark lashed out at Weiss. He called the report the result of an"illegal" leak and said that because Joe Biden was forced to answer for his son in subsequent interviews, he automatically would become a witness if Hunter Biden were charged, Politico reported.
Two IRS investigators working on the case would later raise alarms to Congress about a meeting they attended on Oct. 7, 2022, that they said was one of numerous signs that Hunter Biden was receiving special treatment in the case. “What is political is threatening to use the influence of the sitting president of the United States to protect Hunter Biden from facing justice," the spokesperson said."But, as Sen. Grassley has repeatedly pointed out, political infection has found no better home than the Biden DOJ.”
