House Oversight Committee chairman James Comer (R., Ky.) announced Monday the names of the three witnesses for President Joe Biden’s first impeachment-inquiry hearing that’s scheduled for later this week.
House Republicans “have uncovered an overwhelming amount of evidence” regarding Biden’s alleged influence-peddling schemes over the years, Comer said in a release obtained by National Review. Key evidence will start being presented Thursday morning.
Forensic accountant Bruce Dubinsky, the Justice Department Tax Division’s former assistant attorney general Eileen O’Connor, and George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley will testify as to whether Biden was involved in foreign business dealings with his son since becoming vice president in 2009.
Dubinsky has more than 40 years of financial investigative and dispute consulting experience, has served as an expert witness more than 100 times, and has testified in more than 80 trials, such as those involving criminal and civil financial fraud.
O’Connor, serving in the Justice Department’s Tax Division for six years, has overseen the department’s litigation of civil, criminal, trial, and appellate tax cases.
Turley, who has been repeatedly outspoken about the Biden family’s alleged financial crimes, has published work in constitutional law and legal theory.
“Thousands of pages of financial records, emails, texts, testimony from credible IRS whistleblowers, and a transcribed interview with Biden family business associate Devon Archer all reveal that Joe Biden allowed his family to sell him as ‘the brand’ around the world to enrich the Biden family,” said Comer.” Joe Biden showed up on at least two dozen occasions to send signals of access, influence, and power to those who were paying the Bidens.”
The House Judiciary Committee and the Ways and Means Committee, along with Oversight, have all investigated the matter since January, according to the statement.
“Based on the evidence, Congress has a duty to open an impeachment inquiry into President Biden’s corruption. Americans demand and deserve answers, transparency, and accountability for this abuse of public office,” Comer added. “This week, the House Oversight Committee will present evidence uncovered to date and hear from legal and financial experts about crimes the Bidens may have committed as they brought in millions at the expense of U.S. interests.”
The hearing will be held in the Rayburn House Office Building at 10 a.m. Thursday.
