WASHINGTON—House Committee on Oversight and Reform Ranking Member James Comer (R-Ky.) today renewed his request to Department of Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen for information regarding Hunter Biden and other Biden associates and family members’ suspicious foreign business transactions flagged by U.S. banks and called for all documents, communications, and records related to these transactions to be preserved. The Biden Administration has publicly asserted it provides suspicious activity reports (SARs) to Congress, but it is refusing to provide any reports generated for the Biden family and Biden associates to Ranking Member Comer.
“The Biden Administration is restricting Congress’ access to SARs, and Committee Republicans are investigating whether this change in longstanding policy is motivated by efforts to shield Hunter Biden and potentially President Biden from scrutiny. Though the Committee requested documents and information ‘no later than June 8, 2022,’ the Department of the Treasury has provided no documents or information,” wrote Ranking Member Comer.
On May 25, 2022, Ranking Member Comer initially wrote to Secretary Yellen requesting information regarding Hunter Biden and other Biden associates and family members’ financial transactions flagged by U.S. banks for reporting to the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network through suspicious activity reports. Despite Treasury’s assertion in the press that it provides SARs to Congress, Treasury is refusing to release SARs connected with Hunter Biden or his family and associates.
“According to the Wall Street Journal, the Biden Administration claimed, ‘Treasury has made SARs available for every request we’ve received, regardless of party, and will continue to do so.’ This is not true. During a phone call on June 13, 2022, Treasury officials informed Committee Republican staff that they will not provide SARs to Committee Republicans unless Democrats join the request. It is troubling that the Biden Administration is willing to provide a false story to the media to create the appearance of transparency while continuing to thwart congressional oversight,” continued Ranking Member Comer. “The American people deserve to know whether the President’s connections to his son’s business deals occurred at the expense of the United States’ interests and whether they represent a national security threat.”

Add in the 4chan stuff and the wheels will come rapidly off the Biden Bus after November.
Would/will it make any difference? We’ve seen what’s on hunter’s lap top and DOH-j ain’t gonna act so.............
nothing a little bleach bit can’t take care of?
remember: coming in right after “running for election” to a public office, “time” is the best criminal defense for a crooked pol
Anyone who still supports the Democrats has a criminal heart.
They want your money.
These people need to be FBI raided and arrested. This is outrageous. Criminals like the Bidens and the people that aid his criminality need to go to jail.
The multiple felon who is above the law, Hillary Rotten Clinton, pushes a Russia collusion hoax on Trump which gets a special counsel, FBI involvement, CIA involvement, that investigates him for 3 years hindering Trump from doing his job, destroys lives, costs the taxpayers millions, divides the nation, EVEN THOUGH they knew it was a hoax.
Biden BLATANTLY commits treason working for the Chinese government, takes bribes, gets not even a parking ticket.
This is what happens when a government is occupied by enemy forces. ALL involved should hang!
“Suspicious Activity Reports”? I’ve never heard of those. What are you up to if you have to provide that in the first place?
Would/will it make any difference?

No, there is no accountability for Democrats.
You think? I saw a video of Joe molesting a little girl at an official function. The girl confirmed what he did. The diary helped further make the case.
And now he is the President.
Used to be, known child molesters weren’t able to get elected to office.
If the majority of the American public doesn’t care about that, what would they care about?
Or a lot of their buddy republicrats either. Conservatives? J/6 insurrectionist treatment. 😵💫🤬
So The Big Guy sold his office to our enemies to enrich his disgusting family. His daughter accused him of molesting her. Several woman have accused him of sexually assaulting them. He freely gropes children on video. He is destroying the country and cementing an army of homos and trannies to control the federal bureaucracy. He supports grooming of children while fighting to make sure they are never born. He is importing millions of unvetted dangerous illegal aliens every year. His economic destruction has thrown the global economy in to turmoil with 50% real inflation. He is mumbling our way in to a possible nuclear war.
BUT no more bad orangeman so it is totally worth it.
The GOP is not, nor ever will be, conservative IMO.
Its hard to have faith in a party that doesn’t stand for anything. Just saying.
Paging Bob Woodward. This is bigger than Watergate.
“...information regarding Hunter Biden...”
Nixon was an angel compared to these professional crooks in government.
It’s all ‘bout The Revolution, baby!
If you sell out to deep state..they will cover for you.
If not..they will set out to destroy you.
“ “Suspicious Activity Reports”? I’ve never heard of those. What are you up to if you have to provide that in the first place?”
They are a financial report that is REQUIRED of any bank, brokerage or other financial entity when they SUSPECT (no proof required) that something illegal is happening. Attempts to launder money, dealing with foreign entities, making a series of large transactions, large cash transactions are but a few things that must be reported.
