WASHINGTON — House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer issued a sweeping subpoena for 14 years of bank records linked to three people in the panel’s investigation of Hunter Biden’s foreign business dealings, the top Democrat on the committee disclosed Monday.
Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) fired off a bitter protest letter denouncing the subpoena, which he said was issued by Comer (R-Ky.) to Bank of America on Feb. 27 seeking records beginning when Joe Biden became vice president.
“The subpoena you issued, after giving Committee Democrats mere hours of notice despite longstanding Committee practice of providing at least 48-hour notice, required Bank of America to produce ‘all financial records’ for three private individuals from January 20, 2009, to the present — a staggering 14-year period,” Raskin revealed.
Raskin indicated the three account holders were “business associates” of Hunter and first brother James Biden in a venture with CEFC China Energy, including John “Rob” Walker.
“To justify this roving congressional inquisition into the affairs of at least one private American citizen, you have offered that, ‘[b]y 2017, Biden family members and their associates, including John R. Walker, formed a joint venture with CEFC China executives,’” Raskin wrote.
“Despite this limited justification, you compelled the production of and obtained thousands of pages of Mr. Walker’s private financial information, including statements of his and his wife’s joint checking account for a decade.”
It’s no different than asking for Donald Trump’s records when he was a private citizen Jamie… New name. Jamie RAT-SKIN. Gets all butt hurt when the shoe is on the other foot. Typical liberal near-sighted jackwagon.
Raskin needs to go to the basement with Obiden. No one cares what he thinks!
