"Republicans Launch Investigation into Hunter Biden: What You Need to Know"

Republican leaders of three key House committees are launching a joint investigation into the Justice Department's handling of charges against Hunter Biden, President Joe Biden's son. They have requested voluntary testimony from senior officials at the Justice Department, FBI, and IRS, alleging improper interference and retaliation against whistleblowers. The investigation was prompted by claims from IRS whistleblowers who alleged a pattern of preferential treatment and interference in the Hunter Biden case. The Justice Department has denied the allegations and stated that U.S. Attorney David Weiss had full authority over the case. The Republican chairmen have set a deadline for the department to schedule interviews, threatening to issue congressional subpoenas if cooperation is not met. Attorney General Merrick Garland has expressed support for Weiss testifying before Congress.
