Hunter’s art sales worry Republicans due to the often nefarious nature of the art world:
Money laundering is a major issue in the industry, according to a 2020 Senate report.
Some Republicans believe the Biden business laundered money.
The revelations show “no evidence of wrongdoing by President Biden,” House Oversight Committee Ranking Member Jamie Raskin (D-MD) said in a statement. “Biden had no knowledge of, or role in, these art sales.”
House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer (R-KY) said the White House “appears to have deceived” about the art sales.
“Hunter Biden’s gallerist never had any communication with the White House about such an agreement to make sure there was any sort of ethics compliance at all, and he provided information to the committee revealing how Hunter Biden’s amateur art career is an ethics nightmare,” he said in a statment obtained by Breitbart News. “The White House has a lot of explaining to do about misleading the American people.”
