House Oversight Committee subpoenas banks, Biden family associates in probe of finances The Republican-led House Oversight Committee has subpoenaed several major banks for financial records belonging to Biden family associates James Comer on Trump indictment: The Bidens were 'basically laundering money'
The House Oversight Committee issued subpoenas to banks asking for Biden family associates' financial records.
Fox News has confirmed that the Oversight Committee subpoenaed Bank of America, Cathay Bank, JPMorgan Chase, and HSBC USA N.A., as well as former Hunter Biden business associate Mervyn Yan, asking for financial records.
Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md., the top Democrat on the Oversight Committee, complained that Committee Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., was trying to hide information regarding the investigation from Democrats on the committee.

The Oversight Committee Democratic staff sent a memo to members on Thursday which accuses Republicans of conducting their investigation behind a "veil of secrecy."
"Despite this massive investment of time and resources, Republican efforts on this and other congressional committees have failed to yield any evidence of misconduct by President Biden. Nevertheless, Chairman Comer has issued six document subpoenas for financial records as part of this renewed investigation, several of which have been based on information Committee Republicans know to be false," the memo states.
