Hunter Biden testified on Wednesday that he never involved his father, President Biden, in any of his business decisions, and he accused House Republicans of having “built your entire partisan house of cards on lies.
”
The president’s son, ahead of what is expected to be a lengthy, and long-awaited, closed-door deposition for the GOP-led impeachment inquiry of the president, wrote an opening statement that was defiant, emotional and combative.
“I am here today to provide the Committees with the one uncontestable fact that should end the false premise of this inquiry: I did not involve my father in my business,” he said, according to a copy of the statement obtained by The Washington Post. “Not while I was a practicing lawyer, not in my investments or transactions domestic or international, not as a board member, and not as an artist. Never.”
The testimony comes as House Republicans have struggled to uncover firm evidence that Joe Biden benefited from — or played a role in — the business pursuits of his family members. The testimony from Hunter Biden follows an appearance from President Biden’s younger brother James, who last week testified that Joe Biden never played a role in his businesses. Several other former associates of Hunter and James Biden have made similar statements under oath.
