House Oversight Committee Chair Rep. James Comer alleged Hunter's lawyers are attempting to intimidate possible witnesses and whistleblowers in his investigation.
"In communication with our witnesses and with people who are cooperating from a subpoena standpoint, we know that they have been contacted by the attorneys for Hunter Biden," Comer said in an interview on"America Reports."We feel that this is really close to crossing the line. Obviously, their objective in my opinion, is witness intimidation. This will not stand."
"If you get a call from the lawyers and they remind you of your potential liability in some of these business schemes then yes, I would consider that witness intimidation," he said. Comer said the committee plans to request immunity for certain individuals so they can cooperate with the congressional probe without fear of personal liability.
"They have dark money groups that are trying to intimidate both me and Chairman Jim Jordan…this isn't helping their cause," he continued."They're not intimidating us. We're going to press forward and present the facts to the American people."
