House Republicans on Oct. 19 sent a letter to Attorney General William Barr, calling on him to appoint a special counsel to investigate alleged information sourced from a laptop that purportedly belonged to Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden’s son Hunter.

“These alleged revelations raise serious questions about former Vice President Joe Biden’s reported participation with his son’s business, dealings, specifically whether the former vice president (1) received foreign monies during his tenure in the Obama administration and (2) if former Vice President Biden allowed his son to peddle access to his father with foreign business entities,” the letter stated. Eleven House Republicans signed the letter.
