In an email to reporters, a spokesperson for Comer claimed that the House Oversight Committee, which is investigating Biden, had obtained bank records revealing that Hunter Biden’s law firm, Owasco PC, which had received payments from Chinese-state-linked companies and other foreign companies in the past, made direct monthly payments to Joe Biden. The email claimed the payments “are part of a pattern revealing Joe Biden knew about, participated in and benefited from his family’s influence-peddling schemes.”

“There is now a pattern of members of the Biden family using their bank accounts that have been funded by Chinese and other foreign entities to send money to Joe Biden,” the spokesperson said. “Based on witness testimony, Joe Biden knew and participated in his family’s influence-peddling schemes. The checks and payments we’ve uncovered reveal Joe Biden benefited from them.”

The three payments of $1,380 that occurred in September, October and November 2018 — nearly two years after Biden had left the vice presidency — were actually for a 2018 Ford Raptor truck Joe Biden had purchased that Hunter Biden was using, according to an email verified by a Washington Post forensic analysis.

Joe Biden signed for the truck and had it in his name — at a time when Hunter was in the depths of addiction, had a low credit score and couldn’t make the purchase himself, according to a person close to the Biden

The Oversight Committee is concerned with what Joe received. And that's where these mistakes seem to multiply.

Like when we had:

Joe Biden Received $200,000 From James Biden

The Bidens had confusingly labelled it as a loan repayment, when in fact it was a loan repayment.
'Loan repayment'? Mmm. Perhaps 'Lo An repayment'.

'Lo' is a common Chinese name which can be translated as 'to collect' (). 'An' is likewise common (安), and can mean 'secure'. I can see where the confusion may have come from. A mistake anyone could make...

Yes, a moment's indiscretion, a simple oversight, and
who among us might not find we've become labour
racketeeris or atomic spies- or intl influence peddlars.

Those crafty Democrats, concealing the truth by telling the truth!
It does seem to be an approach which has caused the GOP narrative to become very confused.

OK, maybe that isn't the primary reason the GOP stories surrounding this don't make a bit of sense...

All this money exchange really shows Joe Biden's character. He is willing to help his family financially when needed. Blessings.

Lotta loans in a family of millionaires. You'd think that they would be able to pay for their own stuff. I wonder why those IRS agents that specialized in money laundering said they saw a lot of suspicious activity they weren't allowed to investigate.

Well, Hunter received so much that it wouldn't be hard to make a mistake.
People trying to impeach the President should not be making these types of mistakes. They are incompetent, and they know they have no evidence, and are tossing it out there just to rile their base. It is shameful political theater.

Given Comer's tendency to accuse Biden of things that Comer has been caught doing, someone should take a look to see what kind of contacts Comer has with the Chinese.

They have their orders. They are doing the best they can with what they have to work with.

Has anyone subpoenaed the Biden thermostat or checked the bank statements for microscopic bamboo fibers yet?

Not really, but the Turn around with a Trump Presidency and a Democrat controlled House and Senate will be fun to watch.

Compared to the perverts and crooks who oppose him. Which isn't that high a bar, but that's today's republican party.
