House Republicans could face a roadblock from the Department of Justice in their expansive investigation into first son Hunter Biden before the investigation is complete.
The DOJ is also believed to be investigating Biden and whether he committed any crimes. If the department indicts Biden, it would cripple the House investigation by allowing witnesses to plead the Fifth Amendment to avoid incriminating themselves.
The House Oversight Committee heard testimonies from former Twitter Deputy General Counsel James Baker, former Global Head of Trust and Safety Yoel Roth, and Vijaya Gadde, the platform's former chief legal officer. Former Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey has admitted suppressing the story was a mistake. “If they indict Hunter Biden, there’s still a lot of stuff out there. And say we can’t touch anything [Hunter related], it freezes up all the evidence — there’s still a lot of stuff out there,” Comer told the outlet.
