Shortly after Hunter Biden refused a congressional subpoena for a private deposition before Republican investigators, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre mentioned President Joe Biden’s prior awareness of his son’s intentions. Hunter Biden later arrived at the Capitol, delivering a prepared speech criticizing House Republicans and aiming to discredit the investigation, ultimately choosing to ignore the issued subpoena for a closed-door testimony.
Jean-Pierre declined to say whether President Joe Biden tried to stop his son from his actions when prompted by a reporter.
