Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.), chairman of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, said Congress should have been told that Hunter Biden’s business dealings were being investigated as they were conducting President Donald Trump’s impeachment inquiry and trial.

“I’m sympathetic for keeping investigations confidential unless there’s an indictment,” Johnson told Fox Business’ “Sunday Morning Futures.” “But when you’re talking about investigations within the political realm, particularly one that would have affected the impeachment trial of the sitting U.S. president in the U.S. Senate, that should have been relevant information, the fact that they had Hunter Biden’s computer that had all these emails back in December 2019.”
