Rep. James Comer’s Update On GOP Probe Into Bidens’ Business Dealings Is Weak Sauce

“We found a lot that should be illegal,” the Kentucky Republican who chairs the committee told CNN’s Pamela Brown. (Watch the video below.)

Comer had previously described the investigation into Hunter Biden’s transactions and ties to President Joe Biden as “tracking a bleeding bear through a snowstorm. I mean, there’s evidence everywhere.”

But on Tuesday’s “CNN Primetime,” the trail appeared to go a tad cold.

Boris Epshteyn, an attorney and adviser to Donald Trump, is scheduled to be interviewed on Thursday by federal prosecutors working for special counsel Jack Smith, a source familiar with the matter told CNN.

Epshteyn worked as a special assistant to then-President Trump at the White House, advised Trump during the 2020 campaign and has remained close to him since he left office.
