The White House has formally declined an invitation from House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer for President Biden to testify regarding his son Hunter's business dealings. In a letter to Comer, Richard Sauber, special counsel to the president, emphasized that the impeachment investigation is over and urged the House to focus on more pressing issues.
Sauber stated that the impeachment inquiry has revealed no wrongdoing by the President and criticized the Committee for persisting with false allegations despite evidence to the contrary. Comer, in response to Biden's refusal to testify, criticized the President for lack of transparency.
