Biden family

This morning on Fox News, the congressional committee investigating the Biden family's business dealings with China, Romania and Ukraine gave an extensive list of questionable financial transactions between these foreign countries and the Biden family members. There is no direct evidence that President Biden benefited from any of these activities and no evidence that any policy decisions were affected by these transactions. Even if such evidence were presented it would not matter because the Justice Department is not going to look into these allegations, saying it is just political infighting. It is surprising that these congress people assumed that the government would follow up on their evidence. Congress has the power to investigate which includes subpoenas but only the Justice Department can prosecute. The only thing this committee might hope to accomplish is to get public attention on the facts but that will not happen because the press sees this as political. Even today Fox was the only station to carry the committee and that will be the way this is handled so most of the public will not be aware of what the committee uncovered. When the Justice Department and the press are working as a team it is difficult to get through the clutter.
