James Comer, the chair of the House Oversight Committee, is demanding that Biden’s Secretary of the Treasury, Janet Yellen, turn over all suspicious activity reports (SARs) related to the Bidens and Burisma.
Now we are talking.
If Yellen doesn’t comply, Republicans should hold a press conference and ask why the government refuses to be transparent about this.

House Oversight Chair to Treasury Sec. Yellen: Provide any suspicious activity reports related to Bidens
The House Oversight Committee and its chairman, James Comer (R-KY), have been relentless in pursuing information about bribery allegations against President Joe Biden and his son Hunter’s questionable foreign business deals. However, the Biden administration has resisted transparency and has generally been slow to ignore Comer’s requests or simply ignore them.
On Wednesday, the committee sent a letter to Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen demanding that her department provide “all suspicious activity reports (SARs) related to executives and entities in Burisma to further our investigation into Biden’s bribery scheme.” They added, “The FBI has been sitting on these allegations for years. Were not.”
🚨BREAKING🚨@RepJamesComer calls on Secretary Yellen to provide all reports of suspicious activity (SARs) related to Burisma executives and entities to further our investigation into Biden’s bribery scheme.
The FBI sat on these allegations for years. Were not.

From the letter:
Dear Secretary Yellen:
The Committee on Oversight and Accountability has reviewed government documents alleging that while serving as vice president, President Biden solicited and received bribes from a foreign source in exchange for certain actions. These allegations are consistent with the commission’s ongoing investigation into the Biden family’s foreign business transactions — transactions that subpoenaed banking records have revealed that members and associates of the Biden family were able to benefit more than $10 million from foreign sources.
The committee is seeking legislative solutions that address deficiencies it identified in the current legal framework regarding ethics laws and disclosure of financial interests involving the immediate family members of vice presidents and presidents — deficiencies that affect U.S. national security. and interests at risk.
This is the way. Republicans need to start playing hardball.
