"New documents provided by the [Internal Revenue Service] whistleblowers show that Hunter Biden repeatedly lied to Congress in his February deposition to distance his involvement in what should be considered a clear scheme to enrich the Biden family," Smith said in a statement.
Evidence provided by the IRS whistleblowers indicate that Biden and his business associates made millions of dollars by selling access to Joe Biden, who denies the accusations, the statement said.
Documents released by the panel confirm the whistleblowers’ claims and include evidence of the US Justice Department impeding an investigation into Hunter Biden, the statement said.
"Congress cannot allow our oversight responsibilities to be undermined by lies told by anyone, including the President’s son. Hunter Biden, despite what he may believe, he is not above the law," the statement said.
Lying to Congress is a serious offense, the statement added.
