Joe Biden’s son Hunter Biden and his business associate Tony Bobulinski provided conflicting testimony, according to aides.
WASHINGTON (Sputnik) – Testimony provided to the US House Oversight Committee by President Joe Biden’s brother, James Biden, is inconsistent with the testimony of other witnesses, Fox News reported, citing a House oversight panel aide.
On Friday, a transcript of James Biden’s testimony to lawmakers was released, which was a part of an impeachment inquiry led by the House Oversight and Judiciary committees. The inquiry is rooted in allegations of foreign influence peddling and bribery by the Biden family.
James Biden’s testimony conflicts with testimony provided to lawmakers by Joe Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, and his business associate, Tony Bobulinski, the aide reportedly said.
Hunter Biden and Bobulinski testified that Joe Biden met with the pair, as well as James Biden, at a California hotel, the report said. However, James Biden testified that such a meeting never occurred, the report said.
On Wednesday, House lawmakers held a closed-door deposition with Hunter Biden, for which they also released a transcript. Hunter Biden will appear for a public hearing in the future, House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer said.
Hunter Biden denies that his father either profited from or engaged in his business activities.
