Comer demands White House provide records to prove $200K payment to Biden from brother was a loan
House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer is demanding the White House provide documentation "clarifying the nature" of a $200,000 payment from James Biden to Joe Biden in 2018, Fox News Digital has learned.
Comer, R-Ky., last week, said his panel had uncovered evidence that Joe Biden, in 2018, received a "$200,000 direct payment" in the form of a "personal check" from his brother James Biden and sister-in-law Sara Biden. The check was labeled "loan repayment."
The White House last week said the committee found that as a private citizen, the president loaned his brother his own money when his brother needed it, and after reviewing bank records, there is a record that he was repaid.
But on Thursday, Comer penned a letter to White House Counsel Edward Siskel requesting documentation on the payment.
"The White House has claimed Joe Biden loaned James Biden $200,000, and this check was repayment," Comer wrote. "Records obtained by the committee do show numerous large incoming transactions into the personal accounts of James and Sara Biden from various entities."
Comer, in September, had subpoenaed the personal and business financial records belonging to both James Biden and Hunter Biden.
"Some of these transaction records may have obscured the identity of the true payer, but no records in the committee’s possession state that Joe Biden made a large loan payment to his brother," Comer wrote.
"If Joe Biden did personally loan James Biden an amount that was later repaid by the $200,000 check, please provide the loan documents, including the loan payment, loan agreement, and any other supporting loan documentation," Comer wrote......
==============================
I'm going to go out of a limb here and say the White House will not provide banking documents that would prove Joe loaned James Biden $200,000 bucks. Comer needs to subpoena James Biden and find out when and how the loan was made to him. The noose for Joe is tightening.
