Top House Democrat Rep. Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., lashed out at the GOP lawmakers investigating the Biden family as Oversight Republicans have promised more witnesses against the president will come forward.
During Thursday’s weekly press briefing, Jeffries accused House Oversight Chairman Rep. James Comer, R-Ky., of acting “out of control and unhinged” as Republicans press ahead with their probe into alleged bribery and influence peddling on part of Biden and his family.
“The House Oversight Committee, under the extreme lack of Republican leadership from the very beginning of this current Congress up until this point has been a big failure. They have not uncovered anything that is in any way evidence of wrongdoing,” Jeffries said. “They just peddle conspiracy theory after conspiracy theory after conspiracy theory, without any meaningful evidence to move forward.”

On Sunday, Comer told Fox News that more witnesses will come forward regarding his panel’s probe into alleged illicit activity by members of the Biden family. Comer said his investigation discovered indirect wire transfers to Biden family members while the 80-year-old was vice president, which originated in Romania and China.
He alleged the wires were made via shell companies to nine Biden kin, and that the discovery of an FBI 1023 form has even further deepened the investigation, with the lawmaker alleging the Justice Department sat on the bribery allegations laid out by a source in the document.
