Congress is in a holding pattern without a House speaker, but Republicans’ most prominent investigations will go on as planned for now, according to multiple people involved with them.
As part of that, Chairman James Comer , in coordination with the House Judiciary Committee, issued far-reaching subpoenas last week seeking a wide range of personal financial information from two of President Joe Biden's immediate family members, his son Hunter and brother James. He also noted that escalating matters with contempt threats or lawsuits is"necessarily a process," one that takes at least weeks.
Jordan subpoenaed Elvis Chan, a San Francisco-based FBI assistant special agent in charge, last month but has run into problems with Chan objecting to the committee's typical rules for transcribed interviews and depositions. Chan's meeting with the committee is scheduled for Thursday, but according to a letter obtained by the Washington Examiner, whether it actually happens on terms the committee approves of remains uncertain, even at this late stage.
The FBI has criticized the committee for what it says is a"significant departure from normal procedures" with Chan and said Chan"remains willing to take part in a voluntary interview with appropriate legal representation."
