Attorney General Merrick B. Garland stressed his detachment from the federal investigation into President Joe Biden’s son during an oversight hearing Wednesday, as House Republicans slammed the Justice Department’s handling of the case.
Under sharp questioning from Republicans on the House Judiciary Committee, the attorney general repeated himself that he has kept his promise to not interfere with the investigation of Hunter Biden.
The probe is being overseen by the U.S. attorney for the District of Delaware, David Weiss, a Trump appointee who Garland now has made a special counsel over the case.
