As far as I can tell, the membership of this committee from both sides is still not official besides the chair (Comer) and the ranking member (Raskin).

That, however, is not going to stop Comer from getting to the bottom of the thing that is certainly at the forefront of the concerns of the American people…

… Hunter Biden’s art sales.

While this is definitely an example of Hunter cashing in on the family name, which some may find distasteful, it is pretty clearly not a crime for private citizen Hunter Biden to sell his art to anyone for any price.
