Hunter Biden is now said to be ready to testify publicly before the Republican-led investigative committee examining his father’s alleged influence dealings with, among others, China, according to a letter from his lawyers.

The committee is currently conducting an impeachment investigation of President Joe Biden and his possible involvement in his son’s foreign affairs. Republicans claim that Hunter Biden charged foreign clients tens of millions of dollars for meetings with his father during his time as vice president.

In a letter to the chairman of the House Oversight Committee, James Comer, lawyer Abbe Lowell writes that Hunter Biden is prepared to “answer all relevant questions”, provided that the questioning is public.

The lawyer justifies the demand to testify publicly by stating that “closed sessions are used to manipulate facts and misinform the public”. The defense also notes that classified information should not generally be discussed during public hearings.

Joe Biden denies

The president himself denies knowledge of or involvement in his son’s business dealings but has been seen and photographed with several of his son’s clients.

Hunter Biden’s former business partner, Devon Archer, claimed in July this year that Hunter got his position on the board of the Ukrainian energy company Burisma solely to guarantee the company’s influence over American politics.

On social media, such as X, both Donald Trump and Elon Musk have shown their support for Hunter Biden to be required to testify before Congress.

Lengthy processes

During the year, both the Oversight Committee and the House Judiciary Committee have presented evidence suggesting that the Biden family received about 20 million dollars through shell companies from businessmen and politicians in Ukraine, China, and Russia. Both committees have pointed out that about 150 of these transactions have been flagged as “suspicious” by the U.S. Treasury Department.

Suspicions that the Biden family’s private business activities have not always been above board, as well as the legal processes surrounding these, have been a long-standing issue since the presidential election in the fall of 2020. A film about the twists and turns of what can be described as a soap opera in shady dealings was released a couple of years ago.

The investigation into Hunter Biden’s business dealings continues to be a political issue in politically divided USA, where the question of openness and allegations of influence are central.

Hunter Biden admits that the scandal laptop was his

The lawyer for the president’s son, Hunter Biden, is now demanding that a handful of people who accessed the compromising information in Biden’s laptop be investigated for crimes. In the process, they also admit that the laptop was actually his.

This failed dirty political trick directly resulted in the exposure, exploitation and manipulation of Biden’s private and personal information“, it claims in part.

The admission comes via a letter from Hunter Biden’s lawyer Abbe Lowell, who accuses John Paul Mac Isaac – the owner of the computer repair shop where the computer was brought in for repair, of “unlawfully” obtaining the contents of Biden’s hard drive. He is further accused of working with former President Donald Trump’s personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani to use the computer findings to character assassinate Joe Biden.

“This failed dirty political trick directly resulted in the exposure, exploitation and manipulation of Biden’s private and personal information“, the lawyer writes.

“Mac Isaac’s deliberate, reckless and illegal conduct enabled hundreds of gigabytes of Biden’s personal data to circulate around the Internet without his control“, he further alleges.

The computer operator investigated the computer and hard drive in 2019 after months of trying to get Hunter Biden to come and retrieve it. When he went through the contents, he discovered, among other things, videos that by all accounts depicted Hunter smoking crack and having sex with prostitutes – but also emails linking Hunter and his father to corruption, abuse of political influence and legally dubious business deals.

When Mac Isaac realized what the hard drive contained, he called the FBI – but first sent a copy of the material to Rudy Giuliani’s associates – material that was then published by the New York Post in October 2020.

According to Hunter Biden’s lawyer, Mac Isaac, Guiliani and a handful of other Trump associates gained “unauthorized access” to the computer’s contents and passed the information on to the media and lawmakers. As a result, he is demanding that they be investigated for crimes such as theft, possession of stolen property and “computer-related property crimes.”

Mac Isaac himself, however, is not particularly worried but sums this up as an attempt to intimidate him and the others in the context of the Congressional investigation into whether Hunter Biden used his father’s political connections and close ties to the then Vice President to illicitly earn millions of dollars in involvement with foreign companies in Ukraine and elsewhere.

In previous interviews, Hunter has been reluctant to fully confirm that the infamous computer was his.

– There may be a laptop out there that was stolen from me. It could be that I was hacked. It could be that it was – that it was Russian intelligence. It could be that it was stolen from me, he claimed in an interview with CBS 2021.

It should also be noted in this context that the information on Hunter Biden’s laptop was previously censored by Twitter as “disinformation” originating in Russia, a narrative also used by the Democrats and conventional media.
