Comer pushes back on Karine Jean-Pierre calling impeachment 'baseless': 'We have mountains of evidence'
Fox News
Kentucky Rep. James Comer, R-Ky., told "The Faulkner Focus" that the House discovered the Biden family took over $20 million from foreign nationals.
REP. JAMES COMER: I have no idea what she means. There are one or two disgruntled Republicans that are trying to claim there's no evidence. But at the end of the day, the majority of Americans, poll after poll shows, they realize there are mountains of evidence. Let's start with the fact that we've discovered the Biden family has taken in over $20 million from foreign nationals that came through a series of shell companies that were then laundered down to the Bidens in incremental payments. My question to the White House is, what did the Bidens do to receive that $20 million? They can't answer it. They try to act like it didn't happen, like it didn't exist, but it did. $20 million. We heard from the IRS whistle-blowers that they didn't pay a penny of taxes on this money, that this investigation was leading to Joe Biden. We found even though Joe Biden said he never met with or spoke to or had any knowledge of any of these people who were mysteriously wiring millions of dollars to the Bidens, we have found through our deposition process that he spoke to every one of them on the phone over a dozen times. So there are mountains of evidence. We can talk about the text messages, the emails. We can talk about the bank receipts and that's what we're going to talk about next week in our first impeachment inquiry hearing.
House Republicans will hold their first impeachment inquiry hearing to investigate allegations of corruption and abuse of power against President Biden next Thursday, Fox News learned this week.
