Family tradition: Republicans lack ways to check Biden family access-peddling

After four years of House Democrat-led investigations into former President Donald Trump, congressional Republicans are itching to look deeper into allegations of access-peddling by President Biden's immediate family members. But their options are scant.

Last Congress, for instance, Senate Republicans released an 87-page report by the Homeland Security and Finance committees into the business dealings of his lobbyist-investor son, Hunter Biden. However, this Congress, it is the Democrats who control the most intensive investigative powers, not just in the House but also in the Senate.

"We need to understand the extent of the Biden family’s use of its connection to the president to enrich itself and any steps being taken to mitigate future self-dealing," said a Republican spokesperson for the House Oversight and Reform Committee.

The dilemma, for Republicans, is how. That's because life in the minority affords Republicans very few avenues of dissent and inquiry.

Another problem the rats never seem to have.

At least ya'll can still run for re-election on Biden family corruption.

Ah hell they should just do what the democrats do when in that position, lie and make stuff up.

If Republicans are serious about understanding family access-peddling, they should simply ask the Chao family how it's done.

This should help build a case against the Bidens.
