A Republican congressman has called on Attorney General William Barr to appoint a special counsel to investigate Democratic presidential challenger Joe Biden’s son’s overseas business deals, and the “potentially incriminating contents” found on a laptop that allegedly belonged to Hunter Biden.

“This investigation is critical to defending the integrity of our republic and ensuring a potential Biden administration will not be the subject of undue foreign interference,” Rep. Ken Buck (R-Colo.), a member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee and the Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations, said in a letter (pdf) addressed to Barr on Dec. 7.
