Reps. Jim Jordan , James Comer , and Jason Smith revealed in a letter that the Department of Justice informed congressional staff on a recent teleconference that Weiss would participate in a hearing with the House Judiciary Committee at a date to be determined.In the letter, addressed to Attorney General Merrick Garland, the three chairmen reiterated their demand that the attorney general also arrange for nearly a dozen other DOJ witnesses to meet with the committee before it meets with Weiss.
They wrote on Friday, “While we look forward to Weiss appearing at a hearing at the appropriate time, we must first conduct our investigative work, including conducting the transcribed interview of witnesses identified in our June 29 letter.” The chairmen argued “there is no serious dispute” about potential legislative reforms, pointing to a number of possibilities, such as modifications to “special attorney” and “special counsel” rules, reforms to the Tax Division of DOJ, and an expansion of the Internal Revenue Service’s ability to share tax information with Congress.
The chairmen have been working in a joint capacity to lead their own parallel investigations into both Joe Biden and his son.
