Karine Jean-Pierre Criticized for Dismissing Biden Family's $1M Payout as False

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre faced criticism on Twitter after dodging questions about the Biden family's connections to a Chinese energy company during a press briefing. The House Oversight Committee revealed documents proving payouts to three members of the Biden family from associates connected to a Chinese company. Jean-Pierre's response was attacked as "gaslighting" and lies on Twitter. Biden similarly attacked accusations about his family receiving foreign payments. House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer demanded in a letter that Biden correct the record on his "misleading and dishonest" statement.

House Oversight investigates financial ties between Hunter Biden and associates.

The House Oversight Committee has requested Hunter Biden's business associate Rob Walker to testify before the panel after financial documents revealed that he transferred over $1 million to members of the Biden family following a $3 million wire from a Chinese energy company in 2017. The committee reviewed subpoenaed Bank of America records and found that "at least three family members" received lucrative payments from a bank account belonging to Walker. The investigation is being led by Trump-appointed Delaware U.S. Attorney David Weiss.

House Oversight investigates Biden family's China-linked payments.

The Republican chairman of the House Oversight Committee, James Comer, has alleged that Hunter Biden and two relatives were paid $1.3 million by an associate of the president's son who had links to a Chinese energy company. The recipients of the payments were Biden, his uncle James Biden, and Hallie Biden, the widow of Hunter's brother Beau Biden. Comer's memorandum highlighted "new evidence" obtained from a subpoena of Walker's bank records, including two payments totaling $35,000 to Hallie Biden in 2017. The committee is concerned about the national security implications resulting from President Biden's family receiving millions of dollars from foreign nationals.
