House Republicans on Wednesday subpoenaed Hunter Biden and James Biden — the president’s son and brother — as well as Biden family business associate Rob Walker as their impeachment investigation ramps up.
House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, Kentucky Republican, issued the subpoenas for testimony related to the family’s financial dealings.
The committee also requested transcribed interviews from other Biden family members, including James Biden‘s wife, Sara Biden; Hallie Biden, the widow of President Biden’s son Beau; her older sister, Elizabeth Secundy, and Hunter Biden‘s wife, Melissa Cohen.
The subpoenas were issued after financial records earlier this year turned up evidence that the Biden family, including Hallie and Sara Biden, received more than $1 million in payments from accounts related to Mr. Walker. Records also revealed that Hallie Biden received a $25,000 payment from Mr. Walker’s account in March 2017.
Mr. Walker, a former Clinton administration official, worked with Hunter and James Biden on a joint venture with Chinese Energy firm CEFC known as Sinohawk Holdings.
