<p><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/house-republicans" target="_blank" rel="noopener">House Republicans</a> suggested on Wednesday that President <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/joe-biden" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Joe Biden</a> could face an impeachment offense related to his son <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/hunter-biden" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Hunter Biden</a>&#8216;s refusal to comply with a <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/impeachment-leader-accuses-hunter-biden-of-creating-a-constitutional-crisis" target="_blank" rel="noopener">congressional subpoena</a>.</p>
<p>Oversight Chairman <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/james-comer" target="_blank" rel="noopener">James Comer</a> (R-KY) and Judiciary Chairman <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/jim-jordan" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jim Jordan</a> (R-OH) said in <a href="https://oversight.house.gov/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/2023-12-27-Letter-Siskel.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">a letter demanding</a> a host of documents and communications by January 10 that their committees are &#8220;compelled to examine as part of our impeachment inquiry whether the President engaged in a conspiracy to obstruct a proceeding of Congress.&#8221;</p>
<p>In their letter, addressed to White House Counsel Edward Siskel, the chairmen highlighted how White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre <a href="https://twitter.com/RNCResearch/status/1735030307974242508" target="_blank" rel="noopener">told reporters</a> that President Biden was &#8220;familiar&#8221; with what Hunter Biden was going to say at a mid-December press event outside the U.S. Capitol.</p>
<p>Hunter Biden used the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/hunter-biden-shows-up-to-capitol-defies-subpoena-for-house-deposition" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Capitol Hill appearance</a> to publicly demand House Republicans provide him a public hearing instead of appearing at the closed-door interview in compliance with the congressional subpoena issued by House Republicans. Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2023/12/13/hunter-biden-wingman-eric-swalwell-00131582" target="_blank" rel="noopener">told POLITICO</a> that he reserved the spot where the First Son delivered the remarks and he appeared at the event.</p>
<p>Though Jean-Pierre has <a href="https://twitter.com/RNCResearch/status/1735030307974242508" target="_blank" rel="noopener">refused</a> to offer any more details when pressed on whether President Biden tried to talk his son out of violating a congressional subpoena, Jordan and Comer said they are faced with the &#8220;troubling new question&#8221; of whether the commander in chief &#8220;corruptly sought to influence or obstruct&#8221; their proceeding. &#8220;Such conduct could constitute an impeachable offense,&#8221; they wrote.</p>
<p>Citing criminal code, the chairmen also said it is &#8220;unlawful to &#8216;corruptly &#8230; endeavor[] to influence, obstruct, or impede the due and proper exercise of the power of inquiry under which any investigation or inquiry is being had by &#8230; any committee of either House or any joint committee of the Congress'&#8221; and &#8220;any person who &#8216;aids, abets, counsels, commands, induces or procures&#8217; the commission of a crime is punishable as a principal of the crime.&#8221;</p>
<p>Hunter Biden was <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/house-oversight-subpoenas-hunter-biden-presidents-brother-and-ex-business-associate" target="_blank" rel="noopener">subpoenaed</a> last month to appear for a deposition as part of the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/comer-zeros-in-on-biden-pseudonym-emails-for-impeachment-inquiry" target="_blank" rel="noopener">corruption-focused impeachment probe</a> into his father, which is looking at the Biden family&#8217;s business dealings, as well as how the Department of Justice has handled its <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/prosecutor-accused-of-stymying-hunter-biden-probe-reveals-departure-from-doj" target="_blank" rel="noopener">criminal investigation</a> into Hunter Biden that could lead to prison time.</p>
<p>House Republicans indicated they were willing to have Hunter Biden testify in a public hearing — but only after a deposition — and said Hunter Biden would face contempt of Congress proceedings following his show of defiance.</p>
<p>Shortly after Hunter Biden&#8217;s press event, the House elected to formally authorize the impeachment inquiry in a party-line <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/house-votes-to-formally-authorize-biden-impeachment-inquiry" target="_blank" rel="noopener">vote</a> that Republicans argued would give legal weight to their subpoenas.</p>
<p>President Biden, who is seeking re-election next year, responded with a lengthy <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2023/12/13/statement-from-president-joe-biden-on-baseless-house-republican-impeachment-stunt/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">statement</a> that accused House Republicans of &#8220;attacking me with lies&#8221; and &#8220;choosing to waste time on this baseless political stunt&#8221; that is &#8220;not supported by facts.&#8221;</p>
<p>House Democrats continued to push back on the corruption-focused impeachment inquiry in response to the new letter from Comer and Jordan.</p>
<p>&#8220;It has been a historically unproductive year in the MAGA GOP-led House,&#8221; House Judiciary Committee Democrats <a href="https://twitter.com/HouseJudiciary/status/1740101056871452958" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> in a post to X. &#8220;Republicans have ignored the critical issues that affect Americans. Instead, they have pursued a partisan, evidence-free impeachment inquiry designed to hurt President Biden ahead of the 2024 election.&#8221;</p>
