<p>An attorney representing <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/hunter-biden" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Hunter Biden</a>, the son of the president, beseeched House Speaker <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/mike-johnson" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Mike Johnson</a> (R-LA) to get congressional investigators working to root out corruption to lay off the Biden family.</p>
<p>In a <a href="https://punchbowl.news/lowell-letter-to-speaker-johnson/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">12-page letter</a> dated Wednesday, lawyer Abbe Lowell asked Johnson to use his &#8220;newly minted leadership post responsibly&#8221; and to &#8220;think twice&#8221; about stoking the &#8220;spectacle&#8221; taking place on Capitol Hill over the past year.</p>
<p>Lowell encouraged Johnson to consider his own statements, including his <a href="https://thehill.com/homenews/house/4289488-johnson-says-biden-impeachment-inquiry-continued/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">vow</a> that House Republicans would &#8220;follow the truth where it leads,&#8221; and listed various ways in which the attorney claimed GOP investigators have lied about Hunter Biden&#8217;s foreign business dealings and related matters.</p>
<p>He also took aim at the impeachment inquiry into President <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/joe-biden" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Joe Biden</a>, which is examining the behavior of the commander in chief as well as members of his family, and repeatedly bemoaned how House Oversight Chairman <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/james-comer" target="_blank" rel="noopener">James Comer</a> (R-KY) <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/comer-says-biden-should-be-impeached-ahead-of-big-week" target="_blank" rel="noopener">teased</a> around two dozen more subpoenas <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/comer-says-biden-should-be-impeached-ahead-of-big-week" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“in the very near future.”</a></p>
<p>Hunter Biden and President Biden&#8217;s brother James Biden were <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/house-oversight-subpoenas-hunter-biden-presidents-brother-and-ex-business-associate" target="_blank" rel="noopener">subpoenaed</a> by House Republicans on Wednesday. In addition to the impeachment inquiry, Hunter Biden is facing a criminal investigation, into which House Republicans are <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/jim-jordan-shares-key-takeaway-from-hunter-biden-prosecutors-testimony" target="_blank" rel="noopener">taking a hard look</a> over concerns that the Department of Justice slow-walked the process to shield the president&#8217;s son.</p>
<p>Encouraging Johnson to be a &#8220;different&#8221; speaker who &#8220;restores the integrity and reputation of your chamber,&#8221; Lowell ended his letter by urging him to begin with holding Comer and other top impeachment investigators &#8220;to the facts and stopping them from continuing their partisan political games. The latest example of their hoping to do the opposite is ripe for your intervention.&#8221;</p>
<p>Comer recently told conservative political commentator Benny Johnson the impeachment inquiry has reached the &#8220;<a href="https://www.thedailybeast.com/james-comer-now-wants-to-wrap-up-biden-impeachment-probe-asap#:~:text=Continuing%20to%20brag%20about%20his,to%20wind%20down%20the%20probe." target="_blank" rel="noopener">downhill phase</a>,&#8221; and he aims to &#8220;wrap it up as soon as possible.&#8221; GOP investigators have been particularly interested in the flow of <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/this-president-is-compromised-comer-says-biden-family-brokered-over-40m-worth-of-foreign-deals" target="_blank" rel="noopener">millions</a> of dollars of <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/bank-records-show-biden-received-laundered-money-from-china-comer-says" target="_blank" rel="noopener">suspicious money transfers</a> from foreign dealings through a complicated web of businesses and bank accounts. Biden and his allies insist there is no wrongdoing.</p>
<p>Johnson, who <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/house-elects-mike-johnson-as-speaker" target="_blank" rel="noopener">took over as speaker last month</a> after Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) was ousted from the role, <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/speaker-johnson-signals-biden-impeachment-decision-coming-very-soon" target="_blank" rel="noopener">told reporters</a> last week that he would not &#8220;predetermine&#8221; an outcome. &#8220;But I do believe that very soon we are coming to a point of decision on it,&#8221; Johnson said, adding that the impeachment inquiry phase is an &#8220;important step&#8221; in ensuring due process.</p>
