House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan recently subpoenaed Assistant U.S. Attorney Lesley Wolf, who previously investigated Hunter Biden. The Delaware prosecutor has been accused of harboring bias in her investigation of Hunter’s alleged criminal activity.
According to allegations, Wolf refused to permit investigators to ask Joe Biden about his assumed role as “the big guy” in Hunter’s communications. Wolf also allegedly required investigators to remove references to “Political figure 1” from a search warrant. For context, President Biden has been accused of being “Political figure 1.” Furthermore, Wolf allegedly blocked U.S. Attorney David Weiss from inquiring about the infamous email from Hunter Biden’s laptop describing “ten held by H for the big guy” relating to a business deal with a Chinese company.
“Based on the Committee’s investigation to date, it is clear that you possess specialized and unique information that is unavailable to the Committee through other sources and without which the Committee’s inquiry would be incomplete. 6 Witness testimony and public reporting indicates that as an Assistant U.S. Attorney for the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Delaware, you were directly involved in that office’s investigation of Hunter Biden, which deviated from standard investigative procedures,” Jordan said in a letter to Wolf.
Obviously, if such accusations of bias are true, it would have damning implications for the Biden investigation. Based on knowledge held by his committee, Jordan slammed Wolf for not conducting a proper investigation into the president’s son.
“Information available to the Committee suggests that you — either directly or by instructing others — are responsible for many of the decisions to deviate from standard investigative protocol during the Department’s investigation of Hunter Biden,” Jordan said. “Given your central role in the Department’s investigation of Hunter Biden, you are uniquely situated to advance not only the Committee’s oversight and inform potential legislative reforms … but also the Committee’s impeachment inquiry,” Jordan wrote.
Jordan’s letter drew on witness testimony, implicating Wolf in obstructing the investigation into the conspicuous business dealings of the Biden family. According to the witness, the ability to obtain relevant information was heavily “constricted.”
“According to witness testimony, you obstructed the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Western District of Pennsylvania from briefing the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Delaware about information from a highly credible confidential human source regarding bribes allegedly paid to President Biden and Hunter Biden. The former U.S. Attorney for the Western District of Pennsylvania testified that you served as the “primary interface” for your office to receive information about the Biden family bribery allegations.”
“He explained that the information sharing between the two offices became so ‘constricted that we had to provide written questions to the investigative team in Delaware, almost in the form of interrogatories, and receive written answers back.’ You also attended a briefing in October 2020 about the bribery allegations after Principal Associate Deputy Attorney General Richard Donoghue ordered your office to receive the briefing.”
Jordan concluded in his letter to Ms. Wolf that her position was critical in the Hunter Biden investigation and could help determine if the Biden administration attempted to influence the outcome.
“Given your critical role you played in the investigation of Hunter Biden, you are uniquely situated to shed light on whether President Biden played any role in the Department’s investigation and whether he attempted, in any way, to directly or indirectly obstruct either that investigation or our investigation. Accordingly, for all these reasons, and in light of the Department’s non-compliance with our earlier voluntary requests, please find attached a subpoena compelling your appearance at a deposition,” Jordan said.
