The Republican chairman of the newly-named House Oversight and Accountability Committee is demanding the Treasury Department hand over all suspicious activity reports linked to Hunter Biden following a year of stonewalling.
Rep. James Comer , the ranking member in the 117th Congress and now the chairman as the 118th Congress kicks off, spent much of 2022 repeatedly pushing the Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen to hand over the suspicious bank activity reports linked to Biden family businesses as he argued that the Treasury Department’s responses continued to stonewall his efforts to get answers on the financial transactions of President Joe Biden's son linked to China, Russia, and elsewhere.
Hunter controversially held a lucrative position on the board of Ukrainian energy giant Burisma while his father was vice president. The president’s son also pursued business deals in China and elsewhere during and after his father’s tenure as vice president, raking in millions thanks to these associations.
Davidson added: “These suspicious activity reports and other BSA reports filed with the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network contain details of financial transactions and other sensitive, nonpublic information. This is preliminary and unverified tip-and-lead information on possible violations of law."
