House GOP Sets New Date for Hunter Biden Deposition
House Republicans Set Date for Hunter Biden’s Deposition in Impeachment Inquiry
In a significant development, House Republicans announced on Thursday that Hunter Biden, the son of President Joe Biden, will finally appear for a deposition next month. This move marks the end of a standoff in the impeachment inquiry into his father.
“Hunter Biden will appear before our committees for a deposition on February 28, 2024. His deposition will come after several interviews with Biden family members and associates. We look forward to Hunter Biden’s testimony,”
Oversight Chairman James Comer and Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan shared this news along with their interview plans for other witnesses.
The announcement came after Hunter Biden’s attorney, Abbe Lowell, wrote to the chairmen last week, stating that his client would comply with a “proper subpoena” since the House had formally authorized the impeachment inquiry. Although Comer and Jordan argued that their prior subpoenas were valid, they expressed willingness to accommodate Hunter Biden by issuing new subpoenas.
It is worth noting that Hunter Biden had previously shown up on Capitol Hill twice, demanding to appear in an open setting to answer ”legitimate” questions while preventing any distortion of his testimony.
House Republicans indicated their willingness to have Hunter Biden testify in a public hearing, but only after the deposition. They have consistently maintained the validity of their subpoenas. Democrats, on the other hand, urged the GOP to accept Hunter Biden’s offer for public testimony and drop their pursuit of holding him in contempt of Congress.
As part of the corruption-focused impeachment probe into President Biden, congressional investigators are examining the business dealings of the Biden family and the Department of Justice’s handling of the criminal investigation into Hunter Biden. Several subpoenas have been issued, and transcribed interviews have taken place with individuals such as Hollywood lawyer Kevin Morris and Hunter Biden’s art gallery dealer Georges Bergès.
Looking ahead, Comer and Jordan revealed that their committees will conduct more transcribed interviews with various Biden family members and associates in the coming weeks. They are also working with an attorney for James Biden, the President’s brother, to schedule his appearance. Additionally, interview plans for other Biden family associates have been outlined.

This development comes after months of speculation and scrutiny surrounding Hunter Biden’s business dealings in Ukraine and China, which have been a focal point for House Republicans during the impeachment inquiry. Republicans have alleged that Hunter Biden’s involvement in foreign business ventures may have created a conflict of interest for his father, President Joe Biden, while he was serving as Vice President.
The decision to depose Hunter Biden is likely to be met with both support and criticism from different political factions. While Republicans argue that his testimony is crucial to understanding any potential wrongdoing or conflicts of interest, Democrats may view this as a distraction from the broader focus of the impeachment inquiry, which is centered around President Biden’s role in the Ukraine scandal.
It remains to be seen how this deposition will impact the impeachment inquiry and whether or not it will provide any substantial evidence or insights. However, this move by House Republicans does signify a step forward in their efforts to uncover the truth surrounding the Biden family’s business dealings.
It is also worth noting that Hunter Biden has previously faced scrutiny for his business activities and personal struggles, including his past struggles with substance abuse. It is unclear at this time whether these topics will be addressed during the deposition or if the focus will solely be on his involvement in foreign business ventures.
As the deposition date approaches, it is likely that there will be increased attention and speculation surrounding this development. The American public, as well as lawmakers on both sides of the aisle, will be eagerly awaiting Hunter Biden’s testimony and its potential implications for the impeachment inquiry.

House Republicans have set a date for his testimony, following interviews with other individuals associated with the Biden family. This move is expected to generate further debate and scrutiny, as both Republicans and Democrats analyze the potential impact of his testimony on the impeachment inquiry.
