James Comer blasts Biden \u2018family values\u2019 talk, says he\u2019s responsible for \u2018terrible\u2019 Hunter"},"content":{"rendered":"\n

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) ripped President Biden Monday night, accusing the commander-in-chief of giving lip service to \u201cfamily values\u201d while setting up his son<\/a> as the \u201cfall guy\u201d<\/a> for the first family\u2019s multimillion-dollar influence-peddling scheme overseas<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s really sad when Joe Biden tries to portray himself as a family figure,\u201d Comer, 50, said on Fox News\u2019 \u201cJesse Watters Primetime.\u201d \u201cHunter Biden is terrible, but his dad is the reason \u2026 this money didn\u2019t just fall into Hunter Biden\u2019s lap. It\u2019s because of Joe Biden.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hunter Biden, 53, agreed last month to a probation-only plea deal<\/a>, which will see him admit to two tax misdemeanors but let him off from a host of other potential charges, including money laundering and bribery<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The president\u2019s son is also set to dodge a felony firearms charge for lying on a federal gun purchasing form about his drug abuse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cJust because you\u2019re a crack cocaine addict doesn\u2019t give you the right to take $25 million from foreign nationals and not pay a penny in taxes on it,\u201d Comer said Monday, referring to his committee\u2019s probe of Hunter\u2019s lucrative worldwide business deals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cTo listen to Joe Biden talk about family values or to listen to Joe Biden talk about criminal justice reform, or policy where he wants to hire more IRS employees to go after tax cheats, or have more gun laws to go after people that possess firearms \u2014 and his own son pled guilty to two tax evasion charges and one illegal possession of firearms<\/a> [charge],\u201d Comer added. \u201cI mean, this is a terrible example of leadership in the White House.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At least\u00a0nine Biden family members<\/a>\u00a0benefited from the foreign arrangements, which involved payments through a series of \u201cshell companies,\u201d the House Oversight Committee revealed through bank records.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first son also reached a settlement<\/a> last week with his baby mama Lunden Roberts, which will allow his unacknowledged daughter to receive proceeds from his artwork.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cYou mentioned his grandchildren, his other six grandchildren,\u201d Comer said, pointing out Biden\u2019s refusal to acknowledge Hunter\u2019s love child with ex-stripper Lunden Roberts<\/a>. \u201cWell, one of them is scarred for life because she got hung up in the Biden family influence-peddling. We found out about her through a bank violation called the suspicious activity report. They were funneling money that they were laundering through shell companies down to one of his grandchildren, to try to hide it from being in Joe Biden\u2019s name and to evade taxes.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBut I will tell you when that poor girl goes to get a mortgage or apply for a credit card, she\u2019s gonna have problems because she has a bank violation, a major bank violation,\u201d added Comer, a former bank director. \u201cShe\u2019s always going to have to hire an attorney to help explain the financial situation through probably no fault of her own.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The House Oversight chair also mentioned previously reported text messages from the now-infamous laptop, in which Hunter said he was forced to give up \u201chalf\u201d of his salary<\/a> to his father \u2014 and raged to family members that first lady Jill Biden<\/a> was an \u201centitled c\u2013t.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cLook, I mean, you can see in his text messages what Hunter Biden said about Joe Biden, the first lady, I\u2019m not even gonna keep repeating what he said about her,\u201d Comer said. \u201cBut he\u2019s talked bad about his dad, you read one of the texts he wrote to his daughter about how he\u2019s had to keep his family up, and he\u2019s kept his family up, not because he did any work, but because Joe laundered money through shell companies.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
