Since winning back the House majority, Republican lawmakers have jumped at the chance to target the Biden family over their alleged foreign transactions, echoing concerns similar to the ones that have been raised about the Trump family.
On Thursday, the GOP chairman of the House Oversight Committee published a memo alleging that President Joe Biden's son Hunter and at least two other relatives received just over $1 million from a Chinese company through indirect payments.
The latest developments surrounding the Biden family are not the first time a first family has been investigated by the Oversight panel for financial ties to businesses overseas.
Throughout his presidency, former President Donald Trump was widely scrutinized for his Chinese business connections. Those financial ties are likely to face further criticisms as he ramps up his 2024 campaign.
