James Comer: Hunter Biden Asked VP Dad For Help As Burisma Pressured For Call to DC


House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) dropped another bombshell revelation involving President Joe Biden and his son, Hunter Biden

In a Friday interview with Fox News host Sean Hannity, Comer discussed an email he saw where then-Vice President Biden used a pseudonym allegedly to hide his involvement in the Ukraine-based energy company at a time his son was serving as a board member for around $80,000 per month.

“I’ve seen one that had Hunter Biden, copied. And that is the most concerning thing. That is where the Democrats have gone stone cold silence in Washington in their defense of Joe Biden,” he said.

“There was an e-mail that was through a pseudonym that was Joe Biden. That had Hunter copied on it, and it was an e-mail about Ukraine policy at the same time that [former Hunter business partner] Devon Archer testified that the owners of Burisma were squeezing Hunter to call Washington for help, and that is when Dan Goldman in January said, he could have called anybody in Washington, and I’m sure they just talked about the weather. That is not true,” he added.

WATCH:

Meanwhile, a committee in the Republican-controlled House is demanding records pertaining to Hunter Biden’s trips aboard Air Force Two when his father, Joe Biden, was serving as Barack Obama’s VP.

The House Oversight Committee on Wednesday called on the National Archives to produce records after recent reports noted that Hunter accompanied his VP father on Air Force Two for more than a dozen overseas trips, the Daily Wire reported late last month.

“JOE ABUSED VP PRIVILEGE,” the GOP leaders of the Oversight Committee wrote on the X platform. “Recent reporting indicates that, as VP, Joe Biden abused Air Force Two by allowing his son Hunter to tag along to AT LEAST 15 COUNTRIES to sell ‘The Brand’ to enrich the Biden family. Hunter would regularly schedule business meetings while traveling abroad with the VP according to emails from his laptop.”

Given this development and testimony from Devon Archer that then-VP Biden met with at least one of Hunter Biden’s associates in Beijing while visiting on official business, @RepJamesComer and @RepDonaldsPress are calling on the National Archives to provide documents, communications, and manifests related to then-VP Biden’s misuse of Air Force Two and Marine Two,” the posted noted further, including a screenshot of the letter sent to the National Archives.

The letter, sent to Archivist Colleen Shogan, suggested that the reported use of Air Force Two and Marine Two implied that Joe Biden permitted his son to travel using taxpayer funds while simultaneously supporting his efforts to promote the “Biden Brand” to foreign officials.

“Devon Archer, a longtime Biden family associate, has stated it is ‘categorically false’ that Joe Biden played no role in his son’s foreign business dealings. Flights on Air Force Two around the world to seal business deals are evidence of that role,” the letter noted further.

Based on the latest reports, there are indications that Hunter might have accompanied his father on Air Force Two during trips to Croatia, Kosovo, Serbia, Canada, Japan, Germany, Italy, Egypt, South Africa, Kenya, and South Korea. It was already widely known that he accompanied then-Vice President Biden to China and Mexico. Furthermore, emerging reports claim Hunter also joined his father in Belgium and Spain.
