House Oversight and Accountability Chairman James Comer pressed Wednesday for deeper access to records in the Biden family probe held by the National Archives, while pointedly warning that America's historical agency is threatening to withhold some evidence as "personal."
Comer made the revelation in a letter to Archivist Colleen Shogan that requested unrestricted access to a collection of memos the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) has released in redacted form titled “Records on Hunter Biden, James Biden, and Their Foreign Business Dealings" under the Presidential Records Act (PRA).
Comer noted the collection includes correspondence in which Hunter Biden business partner Eric Schwerin was directly coordinating media messaging with Vice President Joe Biden's office concerning Burisma Holdings, a Ukrainian energy company deemed corrupt by the State Department that paid Biden's son millions to serve on its board. Just the News reported on that specific memo earlier this year when the group America First Legal forced disclosure of the collection.
