Embarrassingly, Reps. James Comer and Jim Jordan criminally referred Hunter and James Biden to the Department of Justice for false testimony.

Cuomo and Jordan wrote in part to Attorney General Merrick Garland:
As the evidence presented in the attached referral demonstrates, Hunter Biden and James Biden made material false statements to the Oversight and Judiciary Committees. The nature of these false statements was not lost on the committee: Each instance shows Joe Biden was aware of his family’s influence and played a role in it.
Hunter Biden denies ties to Rosemont Seneca Bohai Bank account, which obfuscates the accounts from which funds were transferred to foreign individuals who met with Joe Biden. Likewise, Hunter Biden created an outright fictional story in which he made threats to the wrong people, seemingly to hide the fact that invoking Joe Biden successfully forced his Chinese partners to Send him money. It also raises questions about Hunter Biden’s other Testimonies about the incident, such as his claim that his father was not actually sitting next to him when he delivered the message.
James Biden denies that Joe Biden met with James Biden, Hunter Biden and Hunter Biden’s business partner Tony Bobulinski about a China deal — despite the evidence being put before him and was given multiple opportunities to revise his response — appearing to be a clumsy attempt to shield Joe Biden from the reality that he did meet with his family’s business associates. Hunter Biden and James Biden provided false testimony to the Oversight and Judiciary Committees in what appears to be a conscious, calculated effort to shield Joe Biden from a formally authorized impeachment inquiry. The Committee recommends that Hunter Biden and James Biden be charged under 18 U.S.C. Section 1001 (false statements), and Hunter Biden is charged under 18 U.S.C. Section 1621 (perjury). ·Biden made accusations. The Department of Justice should consider Hunter Biden’s prior alleged criminal activity when evaluating whether to charge him with the false statements described in the attachment. 14
Since Hunter Biden was federally prosecuted in two different jurisdictions while testifying before Congress, he is also subject to two federal court orders prohibiting him from committing any crimes while on federal supervised release.
The evidence against Cuomo and Jordan was the testimony of Trump campaign asset Tony Bobulinski
Bobulinski also admitted in his testimony that he had no evidence that Joe Biden did anything wrong.
Comer and Jordan made criminal referrals without any credible evidence to support their conclusions. It is no coincidence that these criminal referrals came after Donald Trump was convicted of 34 felonies. These recommendations are political hacks of the worst kind.
Attorney General Garland will likely throw these recommendations in the trash without doing anything about them because they are a deplorable abuse of power and a partisan attempt to distract from the fact that the Republican presidential nominee is a convicted felon. force.
