Testifying before lawmakers on Wednesday, Hunter Biden downplayed the fact that Joe Biden repeatedly spoke on speakerphone with his business partners and met with them at various dinners.

“Over the course of the last 30 years when speakerphone was invented on a cell phone? I’m certain my dad has called me. My dad calls me like I’m sure a lot of your parents do or a lot of you do with your children, and if I’m with people that are friends of mine, I’ll have him say hi,” Hunter testified, according to a newly released transcript of his testimony before the House Oversight and Judiciary Committees.
