As the House Oversight Committee's investigation into the Biden Family Business (and the resultant impeachment inquiry) proceeds apace, Chairman James Comer (R-KY) released a new video Monday morning detailing even more damning evidence regarding the president's involvement in his son's business dealings.
In the video, Comer sets forth the list of lies by Joe Biden and his team regarding the extent of that involvement.
Adding to that list, the committee has now obtained bank records that show that Hunter Biden's company, Owasco, P.C., which received payments from China and other foreign entities, made direct monthly payments to Joe Biden. Comer pointed out that Hunter Biden is currently under investigation by the Department of Justice for using the Owasco corporate account as part of his tax evasion scheme.
Monday's news follows other damning evidence of direct payments by the president's brother, James Biden, and his wife, Sarah, as well as from Hunter. See:

Additionally, another bank record recently obtained by the committee highlighted concerns raised by a money laundering investigator in 2018 regarding Owasco. See:
But sure, Hunter Biden didn't do anything wrong, and Joe Biden didn't have anything to do with it even if he did.
Comer's full remarks are below:
President Joe Biden claimed there was an “absolute wall” between his official government duties and his family’s influence peddling schemes.
This was a lie.
President Joe Biden claimed his family didn’t receive money from China.
This was a lie.
President Joe Biden claimed he never spoke to his son, Hunter Biden, about the Biden family’s shady business dealings.
This was a lie.
Now, Hunter Biden’s legal team and the White House’s media allies claim Hunter’s corporate entities never made payments directly to Joe Biden.
We can officially add this latest talking point to the list of lies.
Today, the House Oversight Committee is releasing subpoenaed bank records that show Hunter Biden’s business entity, Owasco PC, made direct monthly payments to Joe Biden.
This wasn’t a payment from Hunter Biden’s personal account but an account for his corporation that received payments from China and other shady corners of the world.
At this moment, Hunter Biden is under an investigation by the Department of Justice for using Owasco PC for tax evasion and other serious crimes.
And based on whistleblower testimony, we know the Justice Department made a concerted effort to prevent investigators from asking questions about Joe Biden.
I wonder why?
The more we learn, it appears the Justice Department was trying to cover up for the Bidens – until brave IRS whistleblowers came forward and a federal judge rejected the sweetheart plea deal.
Payments from Hunter’s business entity to Joe Biden are now part of a pattern revealing Joe Biden knew about, participated in, and benefited from his family’s influence peddling schemes.
When Joe Biden was Vice President, he spoke by phone, attended dinners, and had coffee with his son’s foreign business associates.
He allowed his son to catch a ride on Air Force Two at least a dozen times to sell the “Biden Brand” around the world.
Hunter Biden requested office keys to be made for his “office mate” Joe Biden in space he planned to share with a Chinese energy company.
We’ve revealed how Joe Biden received checks from his family that were funded by the Bidens’ influence peddling schemes – with China no less.
The House Oversight Committee continues to investigate Joe Biden’s involvement in his family’s domestic and international business schemes at a rapid pace.
We will continue to uncover the facts and provide transparency about the findings of our investigation.
President Biden and his family must be held accountable for this blatant corruption.
The American people expect no less.
