The House Republican chairman of three committees launched a probe into David Weiss's appointment as special counsel of the federal Hunter Biden probe.
, who was on the Hunter Biden investigation for a time and who told lawmakers on Capitol Hill that Weiss’s investigation was intentionally stymied by the Biden administration.
Republicans also attacked Weiss in the wake of a now-defunct plea agreement between the Justice Department and Hunter Biden that they categorized as a"sweetheart deal." Weiss was appointed as special counsel just weeks after the deal fell apart and the president’s son pleaded"not guilty" to two federal tax charges in late July.
"The Department pulled punches in this investigation, handicapping veteran investigators and preventing them from freely pursuing the facts," the Monday letter said.
The House Republicans are now calling on him to hand over all communications and documents related to Weiss’s special counsel appointment from when Biden took over the White House until now, with a deadline of Sept. 11.
