James Biden said that his brother, President Joe Biden, did not have any involvement with his business dealings during a Wednesday interview with House lawmakers.

James was questioned for eight hours as part of the impeachment inquiry into whether President Biden was involved in efforts to benefit from his power and influence around the world. The president has repeatedly denied any involvement in his family’s business dealings, though Republicans have presented evidence challenging those statements.

“I have had a 50-year career in a variety of business ventures. Joe Biden has never had any involvement or any direct or indirect financial interest in those activities,” James said. “None. I never asked my brother to take any official action on behalf of me, my business associates, or anyone else.”

Republicans said that aspects of James’s testimony were contradicted by the evidence presented.

“Let me say this. So there are a lot of things that Mr. Biden is saying that are directly contradicted by documents,” Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) said

House Judiciary Chair Jim Jordan (R-OH) said he didn’t think James was telling the whole story when denying business ties between the Biden family. 

“He’s certainly said some things that make me wonder if he’s … maybe conveniently forgetting something? I don’t know, but some of his answers just don’t make a whole lot of sense,” Jordan said.

James reportedly said he was not involved in a deal with Hunter and associates Rob Walker, Tony Bobulinski, and James Gilliar. However, a source told Fox News that he was then shown a document showing an agreement he had signed with them, which he claimed he didn’t remember. 

During the interview, James disputed reports showing that he focused on his relationship with his brother when applying to work for the hospital chain Americore. He said his brother “played no role, was not involved with, and received no benefits from my work with Americore.” 

Just days before, POLITICO reported that James had told Americore executives in 2017 that his brother would promote the company during a presidential campaign if the company could successfully expand rural health care. He also reportedly said he wanted to give Joe Biden equity in the company.
