Hunter Biden special counsel was 'ducking, dodging and weaving' before House investigators, says Rep. Biggs
Fox News
Rep. Andy Biggs, R-Ariz., sounds off on Special Counsel David Weiss following his closed-door testimony before the House Judiciary Committee Tuesday.
REP. ANDY BIGGS: The whistleblowers are not lying. They're telling the truth. And what we saw from David Weiss was obfuscation, dodging, ducking and weaving. He only would agree to talk about his authority, and even that, he was trying to kind of feather that out a little bit so he wouldn't tell you exactly. He just kept saying he felt he had the authority, but we never really got to ask him, who gave you the authority and when and how? It just never really materialized. But what he did is on every question of substance, he said, 'well, it's an ongoing investigation.' That was some kind of prerogative that we can't talk about. The reality is he did not want to answer these questions, but actually in so doing, kind of confirms what we suspect and that is his relationship with the Biden family. Don't forget, he got special attention from the Delaware senators to get re-appointed. He was the only one of the Trump appointees that was not dismissed by Biden. Why was that? So there's a conflict of interest there, in my opinion. But also, he doesn't want to tell us the truth, doesn't want to get to the bottom of it. He kept saying he's going to put it in his report. When's that report going to be out? Madeline Coggins is a Digital Production Assistant on the Fox News flash team with Fox News Digital.
House Judiciary Committee investigators questioned Weiss Tuesday morning amid whistleblower allegations that politics influenced or hampered prosecutorial decisions in his years-long investigation into Hunter Biden.
Weiss has been leading the investigation into the president’s son since 2018, back when he served as U.S. attorney for the District of Delaware. He arrived to voluntarily testify behind closed doors at the House Judiciary Committee.
