Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-Calif.) may have invited legal scrutiny into his life for helping Hunter Biden defy a congressional subpoena.
Last week, the first son refused to appear at a congressional deposition for which he had been subpoenaed. During the scheduled hearing time, Hunter delivered a brief speech outside the the Capitol with Swalwell standing nearby. Swalwell later confirmed that he reserved that spot for Hunter's speech.
With the California Democrat's on-the-record assistance, Swalwell is now being accused of aiding and abetting Hunter's contempt of Congress.
Last week, Rep. Darrell Issa (D-Calif.) wrote the leaders of the House Ethics Committee and House Administration Committee asking them for guidance on what he described to the Washington Examiner as Swalwell's "aiding and abetting contempt."
