WASHINGTON - Today, Rep. Byron Donalds (R-FL) issued the following statement slamming Democrats and the media’s cover-up of the Hunter Biden story and demanding answers regarding his apparent corruption and exploitation of federal office.
“Hunter Biden is and has been a national security risk, and it is time for Democrats and the media to stop covering for him and allow the truth to come out. What was labeled as “Russian disinfo” by Jen Psaki and the national press to protect then-candidate Biden is coincidently coming to light now. For months before the 2020 election, everyone from the President of the United States, Members of Congress, and Conservative media organizations sounded the alarm on Hunter Biden, resulting in Big Tech censoring any mention of this damaging story.
“As a member of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, I’ve joined several efforts by Ranking Member Comer (R-KY) and other Republicans to demand answers on Hunter’s shady and potentially illegal business dealings and other compromising behavior. If Hunter Biden had the last name ‘Trump,’ Democrats and their cohorts in the media would be calling for investigations and the impeachment of the Chief Executive. Hunter’s involvement in the countries of China, Russia, and Ukraine (to name a few) is of extreme national security hazards, and the American people deserve to know if he and the ‘big guy’ are or have profited from their political power.
“My Republican colleagues and I are determined to expose the Biden Family’s apparent corruption and history of exploitation on the backs of the American taxpayer and elected office. News flash––the Hunter Biden story isn’t ‘Russian disinfo.’”
