House Republicans will go ahead with holding Hunter Biden in contempt of Congress for refusing to comply with two subpoenas to testify about his business dealings despite an eleventh-hour proposal by his legal team for a closed-door deposition.
In a joint statement on Friday, House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) and Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) said that Mr. Biden had “already defied two valid, lawful subpoenas,” adding that “the American people will not tolerate, and the House will not provide, special treatment for the Biden family.”
