Republicans in Congress want to know why a high-powered Hollywood attorney lent Hunter Biden millions of dollars while providing him legal and media assistance.
In a letter on Sunday, Rep. James Comer of Kentucky requested documents from attorney Kevin Morris related to a reportedly $2 million loan designed to help the president's son pay back taxes, as well as any records related to the Federal Election Commission or communications with the White House.
Morris is a retired Hollywood attorney and novelist who has had numerous high profile entertainment clients, best known for negotiating a pair of contracts totaling $1.4 billion for the creators of "South Park," and winning a Tony award as a co-producer of their hit musical "The Book of Mormon."
