KEY HUNTER BIDEN ASSOCIATE COOPERATING WITH CONGRESS, OPENING CRUCIAL WINDOW
INTO JOE BIDEN DEALINGS

Former Rosemont Seneca businessman Eric Schwerin "is going to be a very valuable
witness," House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer told Just the News.

Rep. James Comer: Eric Schwerin is cooperating with Biden financial
investigationOversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) says Biden business
partner Eric Schwerin is cooperating with the investigation into the
presidential family’s business dealings. Comer believes Schwerin will lead the
way for more financial associates to come forward.

Congressional investigators have scored a major breakthrough by securing
cooperation from Eric Schwerin, a close business associate of Hunter Biden who
also had dealings with Joe Biden's business and tax affairs.

"He is cooperating with us," House Oversight and Accountability Committee
Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) revealed Thursday evening on the "Just the News, No
Noise" television show. "His attorneys and my counsel are communicating on a
regular basis. Now, I feel confident that he's going to work with us, and
provide us with the information that we have requested."

Comer added: "I think that Schwerwin is going to be a very valuable witness for
us in this investigation." 

The announcement comes as the committee has gotten word that Hunter Biden and
his uncle, presidential brother James Biden, don't intend to volunteer all the
information Comer's committee has been seeking in its wide-ranging probe of the
first family's overseas business dealings that collected millions from Ukraine
to China.



Comer said his committee won't wait any longer and will begin issuing subpoenas
immediately.

"We know individuals, many are cooperating with us now, but others, not so
much," he said. "We're going to start subpoenaing people in the private sector,
we're going to start subpoenaing financial institutions to get us the
information. And then we'll go from there."

Comer also trolled Hunter Biden for refusing to fully cooperate, saying the lack
of cooperation seemed to undercut his claims he had nothing to hide.

"If I were Hunter Biden, and I'm as innocent as his lawyers and the little hit
guy that works in the White House and attacks me every day says he is, I would
want to clear my name in front of the House Oversight Committee," he said.

"He could come in front of the House Oversight Committee right now and defend
his good name," Comer said. "He would have 20 Democrats that would definitely
support him, and he could make 26 Republicans look bad if all this information
we have from his laptop, all the emails that were in his own words, all the
audio that are in his own voice, if for some reason we're misinterpreting that,
then he could make us look bad.



"But we all know that this family was involved in influence peddling. And this
administration is doing everything in its ability to try to block oversight." 

Both Joe Biden and Hunter Biden have denied the family did anything wrong,
although Hunter Biden has acknowledged he is under federal criminal
investigation on tax issues.

Comer said while the committee battles the White House and the Biden family for
information, Schwerin's cooperation was a breakthrough that could spur other key
witnesses to cooperate.

"That's a very positive development, I believe that's going to lead to a few
others coming forward," he said.



Emails on a Hunter Biden laptop that was turned over to the FBI in 2019 show
Schwerin, a business executive at Hunter Biden's Rosemont Seneca investment
firm, had close proximity to both Hunter and Joe Biden during most of the time
the elder Biden was vice president and his son was pursuing international
business deals.

For instance, Schwerin was involved in vetting and facilitating Hunter Biden's
business dealings with the Chinese energy firm CEFC, a relationship that has
raised questions about whether communist China has compromised the Biden family
by providing it, as the emails show, an expensive diamond and a multimillion
dollar, no-interest, forgivable loan.

"If we can make the connection [to CEFC] we can take a percentage of the sale,"
Schwerin wrote Hunter Biden on Aug. 22, 2016, explaining how they could profit. 

As early as 2010, Schwerin was also involved in discussing tax and financial
matters with Vice President Biden.



"Your Dad just called me (about his mortgage) and mentioned he'd be out a lot
soon and not really back until Labor Day," Schwerin emailed Hunter Biden on July
6, 2010. "So it dawned on me it might be a good time (also he could use some
positive news about his future earnings potential!)."

The White House and Hunter Biden's lawyer were unavailable for comment.
