House Democrats voted Tuesday to protect Hunter Biden from a probe of the alleged influence-peddling schemes revealed by his abandoned laptop.
The House Oversight Committee voted along straight party lines to kill a “resolution of inquiry” proposal by Rep. James Comer (R-KY). The proposal followed a steady drip of text messages and emails from the laptop that appear to implicate President Joe Biden’s son as well as one of his brothers, and even raise questions about what Biden himself knew about potential corruption.
“[Democrats] are continuing in their coordinated effort to shield a potentially compromised President,” Comer said after the vote.
