Senate Judiciary Committee Republicans, led by ranking Republican member Sen. Lindsay Graham (R-S.C.), are seeking a hearing so U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland and U.S. Attorney for Delaware David Weiss can “clarify” their previous statements about Mr. Weiss’s authority in the Hunter Biden tax-evasion case.
Mr. Graham, joined by Sens. Charles Grassley (R-Iowa), John Cornyn (R-Texas), Ted Cruz (R-Texas), Mike Lee (R-Utah), Josh Hawley (R-Mo.), Tom Cotton (R-Ark.), John Kennedy (R-La.), Thom Tillis (R-N.C.), and Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.), told Judiciary Chairman Sen. Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) in an Aug. 4 letter that Mr. Garland and Mr. Weiss must “clarify previous statements in light of recent events related to the Hunter Biden tax investigation.”
