He requested communications between the gallery and the White House, citing Republican concerns the younger Biden is trading in on his father&#8217;s name.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDespite being a novice artist, Hunter Biden received exorbitant amounts of money selling his artwork, the buyers\u2019 identities remain unknown, and you <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>ear to be the sole record keeper of these lucrative transactions,\u201d Comer, a Kentucky Republican, said in a letter to Berg\u00e8s.<\/p>\n<p>The White House counsel&#8217;s office and a representative for Hunter Biden did not im<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">media<\/a>tely return requests for comment.<\/p>\n<p>The Oversight request comes as Comer and Republicans ramp up their investigation into members of the Biden family and their business dealings. The Republicans have requested information from Berg\u00e8s before, but those requests were ignored when the GOP was in the minority.<\/p>\n<p>Biden aides have derided Republicans\u2019 focus on Hunter Biden, who has never held a position in the White House or presidential campaign, as hypocritical. They point to the president\u2019s predecessor, Donald Trump, who had a daughter and son-in-law working for him in the White House and often spent taxpayer dollars at his own properties.<\/p>\n<p>The Biden White House said it <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/joe-biden-business-lifestyle-government-and-politics-arts-and-entertainment-9a91a8b87dadac7ef7f04743b41fdcbb\" data-ylk=\"slk:established an arrangement\" class=\"link rapid-noclick-resp\">established an arrangement<\/a> in the early days of the presidency that allows Hunter Biden to sell his artwork without knowing the identity of the purchaser. Officials said it would avoid any potential ethical entanglements with the sales.<\/p>\n<p>Under the arrangement, a private art gallery owner sets prices for Hunter Biden&#8217;s work and handles all bidding and sales, but does not share any information about buyers or prospective buyers with Hunter or anyone in the administration. Berg\u00e8s also agreed to reject any offer that he deemed suspicious or that came in over the asking price.<\/p>\n<p>The prices for Hunter Biden&#8217;s art, according to Comer, range from $55,000 to $225,000 a piece at the SoHo gallery where his latest collection debuted earlier this month. His paintings often depict abstract flowers and trees with the use of a mixture of ink and acrylic on metal.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is concerning that President Biden\u2019s son is the recipient of anonymous, high-dollar transactions \u2014 potentially from foreign buyers \u2014 with no accountability or oversight (other than you),\u201d Comer wrote in the letter. \u201cThe American people deserve transparency regarding certain details about Hunter Biden\u2019s expensive art transactions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Hunter Biden\u2019s taxes and foreign business work are already under federal investigation by a federal grand jury in Delaware. And his membership on the board of a Ukrainian energy company and his efforts to strike deals in China have long raised questions about whether he traded on his father\u2019s public service.<\/p>\n<p>Joe Biden has said he has never spoken to his son about foreign business. There are no indications that the federal investigation involves the president.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
