The House Oversight Committee announced on social media that they are calling on the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) to provide all records and evidence of Joe Biden’s “misuse of Air Force Two & Marine Two,” according to Rep. James Comer.
On X, the House Oversight Committee wrote, “Recent reporting indicates that, as VP, Joe Biden abused Air Force Two by allowing his son Hunter to tag along to AT LEAST 15 COUNTRIES to sell ‘The Brand’ to enrich the Biden family.”
According to Rep. James Comer, R-Ky., the committee chairman, and Rep. Byron Donalds, R-Fla., Biden’s son, Hunter, was also involved. “Hunter would regularly schedule business meetings while traveling abroad with the VP, according to emails from his laptop” the House Oversight Committee also wrote on X.
According to the House Oversight Committee, Hunter had attended multiple official vice presidential trips between the years 2009 – 2017. The New York Post reported that these trips were to countries like Canada, and others in Africa, Asia, and Europe.
Now, Comer and Donalds are asking in a letter addressed to Archivist Colleen Shogan for the records of this evidence.
In the letter, they laid out their demands, starting with “unrestricted special access” to Air Force Two and Marine Two manifests from Jan. 20, 2009, to Jan. 20, 2017, that include any Biden family members or associates on those flights.
Along with the manifests, the committee also demands all emails and other communications involving Biden’s pseudonym, Robert L. Peters. They also demand that Biden hand over his bank statements.
Comer and Donalds wrote, “Then-Vice President Biden’s misuse of Air Force Two and Marine Two is indicative of yet another way in which the President has abused his various offices of public trust and wasted taxpayer money.”
The committee believes this is just another example of Biden’s abuse of power and a means “to benefit his family’s enterprise, which consisted of nothing more than access to Joe Biden himself.”
NARA has until Sept. 13 to provide these documents.
