Exclusive: Matt Gaetz Plans Creation of a Select Committee to Probe into Biden FamilyWendell Husebø 1 Aug 2022
House Republicans are gearing up to investigate the Biden family business with the possible creation of a select committee after the GOP likely reclaims the House in midterm elections, Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) exclusively revealed to Breitbart News on Monday.
Serious discussions have taken place among Republican members to assemble a select committee to investigate the Biden family, Gaetz told Breitbart News. “I can tell you all the discussions I’ve had with my colleagues have been positive about a select committee,” he said.
A select committee is a type of temporary committee created to conduct investigations or consider other measures on a specific topic. According to Gaetz, the committee would be formed of members with expertise from the Foreign Affairs Committee, Financial Services, Oversight Committee, and Judiciary Committee. “There have already been discussions among members about what different committees need to contribute to a select committee to look into Hunter Biden,” Gaetz explained.
Gaetz explained the Democrats’ partisan January 6 Committee has “set a precedent” for creating a select committee and how the select committee can be “populated” from a congressional members’ position. “I’m not suggesting we establish a select committee for political payback — but to look into very legitimate concerns about influence peddling and compromise and leverage that may exist today over the Biden family,” he said.
Referencing the Republican National Committee’s research team’s list of 16 times Joe Biden has met with Hunter’s business associates, Gaetz believes some of Hunter Biden’s former partners “may want to come forward” and speak with a select committee. “We may have more Tony Bobulinskis that simply haven’t been given the protection of a Republican majority that could honor whistleblower protections — and do something with the information,” Gaetz suggested.
