Hunter Biden Misses Deadline to Submit Records on Foreign Business Dealings

Hunter Biden missed an overnight deadline to hand over documents about his foreign business dealings to the House Oversight Committee.

The Details: Committee chairman James Comer (R-KY) requested the records earlier this month, and is questioning why Biden "received significant amounts of money" from companies in Ukraine and China "without providing any known legitimate services." Comer also made similar requests of brother James Biden and Eric Schwerin, a onetime business associate of Hunter Biden. Several sources reported that Schwerin is expected to comply with Comer's request soon.

Key Quotes: "They continue to act like they don't understand why the House Oversight Committee would bother to request this information. They know exactly the reason that we're looking into this. They know about the family's influence peddling. They know that this family has crossed the line and they know this family's taking millions and millions of dollars from our adversaries for no good reason," Comer said Thursday on Fox News.

For Context: The missed deadline sets up a potential subpoena and legal fight. The committee formally launched an investigation into the Biden family and President Joe Biden's connections to "certain international and domestic business transactions and practices" in January.
