House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer on Monday accused lawyers for Hunter Biden of intimidating potential witnesses and whistleblowers assisting his panel’s probe into the first son’s foreign business dealings. 

“In communication with our witnesses and with people who are cooperating from a subpoena standpoint, we know that they have been contacted by the attorneys for Hunter Biden,” Comer said during an interview on Fox News. “We feel that this is really close to crossing the line. Obviously, their objective in my opinion, is witness intimidation. This will not stand.”

When the Kentucky Republican was pressed by Fox News host Sandra Smith about whether he had “hard evidence” to prove the allegations, Comer indicated that he believed he did.

“If you get a call from the lawyers and they remind you of your potential liability in some of these business schemes then yes, I would consider that witness intimidation,” Comer said, adding that the committee plans on requesting immunity for certain individuals cooperating with the probe.

“That is a big deal and hopefully, the [Justice Department] and Merrick Garland will grant immunity to those people,” he said. “The message is sent very loud and clear that this legal team needs to be very careful moving forward.” 

Comer also alleged that “dark money groups” bankrolled by Democrats are trying to intimate him and  House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan into ending their investigations into the Biden family. 

“They have dark money groups that are trying to intimidate both me and Chairman Jim Jordan … this isn’t helping their cause,” he said, without providing evidence. “They’re not intimidating us. We’re going to press forward and present the facts to the American people.”

Comer promised that later this month his committee would reveal “the facts of what we’ve uncovered thus far” in the Hunter Biden probe.

“In the coming days and weeks, a lot of information is going to come forward that’s going to tell a very compelling story to the American people about the extent of this family’s influence peddling,” Comer said.

Hunter Biden and his attorney Abbe Lowell spent Monday in an Arkansas courtroom fighting to reduce the amount of monthly child support payments that the president’s son has been providing his ex-girlfriend, 32-year-old former stripper Lunden Roberts. 

Lowell argued that Biden, 53,  has already paid Roberts $750,000 in child support for the 4-year-old girl that the pair had out of wedlock.
