A report claiming that Hunter Biden had attended meetings with his father at the White House emerged earlier this week.
The White House has been hit with new pressure from Republicans over a report claiming that President’s Joe Biden’s son Hunter Biden was present during recent meetings with advisers.
NBC News, citing « people familiar with the matter », reported on Tuesday that Hunter Biden had « popped into » meetings and phone calls between his father and advisers following the president’s unsettling debate with former President Donald Trump last week. Some White House staffers were reportedly taken aback by Hunter’s presence, asking, « What the hell is happening? »
On Wednesday, Republican House Intelligence Committee Chairman Mike Turner sent White House Chief of Staff Jeff Zients a letter demanding that he provide information on « the official meetings Hunter Biden is participating in » and whether any « classified information is being disclosed. »
« It is disturbing to learn these events are transpiring in the West Wing, especially via news sources », Turner wrote.
