“I think he's going to pardon other families. He's going to have to do that,” Comer said in the clip. gravure emphasized.
James Biden was investigated by the House Oversight and Accountability Committee, chaired by Comer, over questionable loan transactions. He said the investigation was sent to the Justice Department for prosecution but was never pursued.
“We have a corrupt judicial cabinet under Merrick Garland, and I don't think anyone in America would agree with that now,” Comer said.
“So what we did with Jim Biden, the president's brother, was we brought him in to transcribe the interview and Hunter Biden lied in his deposition. As he did, he lied. Lying to Congress is a felony.”
Hunter Biden, the president's son who was pardoned by President Biden in December, was involved in business dealings with his uncle, James Biden. Both men are accused of using the president's name to attract investors, but the president himself is not involved in any illegal transactions with his family.

“We fully expect Joe Biden to pardon Jim Biden and maybe others, because we have criminal referrals not only for Hunter Biden but also for Jim Biden,” Comer said. said.
“Please remember that 10 members of the Biden family, including Joe Biden, were found to have directly benefited from their influence-spreading schemes.”
President Biden's pardons were controversial, with various calls for additional pardons for a range of individuals, including death row inmates, President-elect Trump, and non-violent criminals.
