House Oversight Committee Rejects Democrats' Demand for Kushner Hearing

Chairman James Comer dismisses calls for an investigation into Jared Kushner's alleged influence peddling, focusing instead on the Biden impeachment inquiry.

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., rejects Democrats' request for a hearing on Jared Kushner's alleged influence peddling.
Democrats accuse Kushner of securing billions from foreign governments in quid pro quo deals during his time as a senior White House adviser.
Comer claims Kushner's business is legitimate and accuses Democrats of trying to shield President Biden from oversight.
The committee is currently conducting an impeachment inquiry into President Biden over accusations of using his former VP position to enrich his family.
Comer's decision comes amid scrutiny of Kushner's foreign business ties and ongoing investigations into Hunter Biden's foreign business dealings.
