With Joe Biden's impeachment inquiry heating up, top congressional investigators are now looking into how Biden used taxpayer funds and Air Force Two to fly his son Hunter Biden around the world as part of an influence-peddling scheme.
House Committee on Oversight and Accountability Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) and Representative Byron Donalds (R-Fla.) are asking the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) to turn over documents, communications, and manifests related to then-Vice President Biden's misuse of Air Force Two and Marine Two.
“Then-Vice President Joe Biden abused Air Force Two by allowing his son to jet set around the world to sell ‘The Brand' to enrich the Biden family. This is yet another example of then-Vice President Biden abusing his public office for his family's financial gain,” said Comer.|
“There must be accountability for this abuse of taxpayer-funded resources. We fully expect the National Archives to provide this information to the Oversight Committee so that we can provide the transparency that Americans demand and deserve,” said Comer.
“Recent reporting indicates Hunter Biden traveled to at least 15 countries with then-Vice President Biden. The Oversight Committee has also learned that then-Vice President Biden met with at least one of Hunter Biden's associates in Beijing while visiting on official business. NARA is the custodian agency of vice-presidential records, and the Oversight Committee seeks information regarding the use of Air Force Two by then-Vice President Biden's family during the Obama-Biden Administration,” the Committee writes in a statement.
“The walls are closing in on the Biden Family due to consistent and diligent efforts by House Republicans who've followed the money, conducted meticulous interviews and hearings, and uncovered undeniable corruption,” said Donalds.
“I am proud to partner with Chairman Comer on this latest undertaking to expose then Vice President Biden's gross misuse of Air Force Two and Marine Two to benefit his family's enterprise. The American people deserve to know how much their former Vice President and current President abused his power to shake down foreign governments and enrich his family to the tune of millions of dollars,” Donalds concluded.
