House investigators issued six subpoenas Tuesday seeking information about the government’s role in allegedly obstructing a criminal probe into Hunter Biden over hundreds of thousands of dollars in unpaid taxes and lying on a gun background check form.
The subpoenas seek “all documents and communications” related to the FBI tipping off the Secret Service and the Biden presidential transition team about an interview the IRS and FBI planned to conduct with Hunter Biden in December 2020.
Homeland Security officials told Secret Service officials “not to provide the original response” it had prepared, Mr. Comer said in a letter to Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas.The Secret Service officials told Congress it could find no employees who had first-hand knowledge of tipping off the Bidens about the planned Hunter Biden interview.
House investigators first learned about the failed effort to interview Hunter Biden from IRS whistleblowers who were investigating the president’s son for tax fraud.
