(Headline USA) House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., is investigating whether a pseudonym used by President Joe Biden during his vice presidency is tied to any of Hunter Biden’s business dealings, according to a letter he sent to the U.S. National Archives this week.
In the letter, which was sent Wednesday, Comer asked the USNA to hand over all unredacted emails associated with the name “Robert Peters” and the email address “[email protected],” which Biden used during the Obama White House.
Emails obtained from Hunter Biden’s laptop show Joe Biden’s aide, John Flynn, cc’ed this email in exchanges with Hunter on 10 occasions.
In two email messages that were dated May 27, 2016, and June 15, 2016, respectively, Flynn emailed Joe Biden’s alias and cc’ed Hunter with a copy of Biden’s daily schedule, which included planned interactions with Ukrainian government officials.
Comer also requested documents associated with other pseudonyms Biden is alleged to have used, including “Robin Ware” and “JRB Ware.”
“Joe Biden has stated there was ‘an absolute wall’ between his family’s foreign business schemes and his duties as vice president, but evidence reveals that access was wide open for his family’s influence peddling,” Comer said in a statement.
Comer also requested any documents of Joe Biden’s that had to do with Burisma or Ukrainian policy.
“We already have evidence of then-Vice President Biden speaking, dining, and having coffee with his son’s foreign business associates,” he said.
“We also know that Hunter Biden and his associates were informed of then-Vice President Biden’s official government duties in countries where they had a financial interest,” he added. “The National Archives must provide these unredacted records to further our investigation into the Biden family’s corruption.”
The move comes as Comer ramps up his investigation into the Biden family’s influence-peddling scheme. Specifically, Comer is looking into allegations that the Biden “coerced” a $10 million bribe from Burisma owner Mykola Zlochevsky in exchange for the vice president’s help in ousting Ukrainian Prosecutor-General Viktor Shokin, who was investigating Burisma.
