“Jonathan Davidson, Treasury’s legislative affairs chief, told House Oversight and Accountability Chairman James Comer in a letter that he needs more details about why the panel is seeking such ‘highly sensitive’ information,” Bloomberg reports.
Rep. Comer wrote a letter to Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen earlier this month for “Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) generated by banks that flagged the suspicious financial activities of Robert Hunter Biden, James Biden, Biden family associates, and their related companies.”
Bloomberg reported:
Without acknowledging whether such reports on the Bidens exist, Davidson on Wednesday instructed Comer that “improper disclosure” of such information can undermine the executive branch’s “conduct of law enforcement, intelligence, and national security activities.”
Comer responded that “this coordinated effort by the Biden Administration to hide information about President Biden and his family’s shady business schemes is alarming and raises many questions.”
After receiving more details about why Comer wants the information, Treasury will “make determinations concerning how to accommodate legitimate legislative needs while also protecting Executive Branch interests, including law enforcement needs,” Davidson wrote.
House Oversight Republicans have demanded information on Hunter Biden’s art sales, particularly who bought his ‘art.’

From Fox News:
House Oversight Republicans are demanding information from the art dealer representing Hunter Biden related to the anonymous art purchasers of Biden’s art at a ritzy New York City art gallery.
Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., on Wednesday sent a letter to art dealer Georges Bergès, who owns the Georges Bergès Gallery in SoHo, Manhattan, demanding that Bergès turn over all communications between his gallery and the White House related to a reported deal to withhold all records of the prices and final buyers for Biden’s art.
“The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating President Joe Biden and his family’s foreign and domestic influence peddling schemes,” Comer wrote. “For over a decade, the Biden family has profited from Joe Biden’s positions as a public official. Your arrangement with Hunter Biden raises serious ethics concerns and calls into question whether the Biden family is again selling access and influence. Despite being a novice artist, Hunter Biden received exorbitant amounts of money selling his artwork, the buyers’ identities remain unknown, and you appear to be the sole record keeper of these lucrative transactions.”
Rep. Comer joined Sean Hannity to discuss Hunter Biden’s suspicious art sales.
“How is Hunter Biden one of the highest-paid artists in America?” Comer asked.
“The Biden family is continuing to profit from Joe Biden’s position as a public official,” he added.
