Hunter Biden’s attorney on Friday accused House Republicans of undermining the law and engaging in a misinformation campaign to harm Hunter Biden and attack his father, President Joe Biden.

In a 10-page letter addressed to Rep. Jason Smith (R-Mo.), the chair of the House Ways and Means Committee, Hunter Biden attorney Abbe Lowell also alleged that Smith had manipulated screenshots of WhatsApp messages to “feed the misinformation campaign” and damage Hunter Biden’s reputation, “as a vehicle to attack his father.”
