Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer is unhappy that President Joe Biden nominated one of Hunter Biden’s former colleagues as Special Counsel to the Office of Special Counsel.
Hampton Dellinger worked with Hunter at a law firm. Comer spoke to Fox:
“President Biden’s decision to appoint Hunter Biden’s former colleague as head of the Office of Special Counsel raises concerns that he’s trying to protect his son instead of whistleblowers,” Comer, R-Ky., told Fox News Digital.”The Office of Special Counsel is responsible for investigating whistleblower retaliation at agencies like the Departments of Justice and the Treasury,” he added. “Naming a Biden family crony to this position does not instill confidence that the law will be enforced fairly.”
Dellinger already worked in the DOJ from 2021 to 2023. He worked as an Assistant Attorney General overseeing the Office of Legal Policy.
The Senate had to confirm Dellinger to that role.
Before the DOJ, Dellinger served as the Deputy Attorney General in North Carolina’s DOJ and Chief Legal Counsel in the Office of the North Carolina Governor.
So everything about government is so gross. You can pretty much tie everyone together.
But the constant ties to Hunter are the creepiest:
But before his government career, Dellinger worked on Boies Schiller Flexner’s Crisis Management and Government Response team while Hunter Biden served as counsel at the firm. The firm had represented Ukrainian energy company Burisma Holdings, where Hunter Biden had served on its board of directors.Fox News Digital reviewed emails on Hunter’s abandoned laptop, which showed he worked intimately with lawyers on the firm’s crisis management team and indicated he attended a private gathering with Dellinger and other firm employees in March 2014.In a February 2014 email, Dellinger told Hunter it was “great to see [him] last week” and asked whether he would be attending an attorney lunch. Hunter appeared to have a conflict, but said he would be in the office the next day.
