In an ongoing legal development, Hunter Biden, son of President Joe Biden, is expected to deliver a deposition on February 28th in relation to his overseas business activities. This probes stems from House Republicans’ impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden, placing Hunter’s affairs in the spotlight.
Previously, Hunter Biden had insisted that any questioning should take place publicly. However, this deposition is set to occur behind closed doors. Two House panels leading the investigation, namely the Oversight and Judiciary committees, announced this decision. Last week’s events saw the same committees recommend a contempt citation against Hunter Biden for his non-compliance with subpoenas. (Bloomberg Law)
Abbe Lowell, Hunter Biden’s attorney, had previously contested the subpoenas’ legality, arguing that they were not valid. These new developments reveal an ongoing effort to shed light onto the business affairs of the Biden family and its potential political implications.
