There's a New Wrinkle in the Impeachment Investigation of Joe Biden
[PJ] Earlier this month, Hunter Biden defied a congressional subpoena, choosing instead to give a press conference on Capitol Hill. While this act in itself means he has some new legal troubles, it now also means that House Republicans have something new to add to the list of Biden's impeachable offenses.

What do I mean? Do you remember how White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre let a detail slip during a White House press briefing that Joe Biden spoke with Hunter before he defied the subpoena and knew what he was going to say?

"Look," she said, "as you know, Hunter Biden is a private citizen. And so, I certainly would refer you to his representatives. Look, you know, the president was certainly familiar with what his son was going to say. And I think what you saw was from the heart from his son."

Constitutional scholar Jonathan Turley called Jean-Pierre's admission a "breathtaking mistake."

"If this latest allegation is true, the president was speaking with his son about committing a potentially criminal act of contempt. Hunter was refusing to give testimony focused not on his own role but on his father's potential role in the alleged influence peddling. The House can pursue evidence on that conversation and how the president may have supported his son’s effort," Turley explained.
