Attorney For Hunter Biden Puts Marjorie Taylor Greene On Full Blast

An attorney representing Hunter Biden is firing back at Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), accusing her of illegally obtaining tax records and defaming their client with her “unhinged” attacks, Politico reports.

Attorney Abbe Lowell has sent letters asking the Treasury Department’s inspector general to determine how members of Congress loyal to failed former president Donald Trump gained access to reports of Biden’s alleged “suspicious activity” and calling for a full review of Greene by the Office of Congressional Ethics.

“We write to request the Office of Congressional Ethics initiate a review of and take appropriate action as a result of Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene’s (R-GA 14th C.D.) suspected violations of House Ethics rules and standards of official conduct,” Lowell wrote. “Representative Greene’s unethical conduct arises from her continuous verbal attacks, defamatory statements, publication of personal photos and data, and promotion of conspiracy theories about and against Robert Hunter Biden. None of these could possibly be deemed to be part of any legitimate legislative activity, as is clear from both the content of her statements and actions, and the forums she uses to spew her often unhinged rhetoric.”

Lowell also referenced numerous false and defamatory statements made by Greene about Hunter Biden.

“Since her election to Congress in 2020 (and before), Representative Greene has engaged in steady, dogged verbal and defamatory attacks against Mr. Biden, and members of his family. Her online statements and public appearances are neither legislative drafting, nor oversight, nor real congressional business — they are a spray of shotgun pellets of personal vitriol that are the definition of conduct that does not reflect ‘creditably on the House.’ Her actions are not merely the expression of political views or private ‘free speech’ because she uses her official position to disseminate them and often expresses them in official proceedings.”

Additionally, Lowell notes, “Perhaps Representative Greene is beyond conducting herself properly. Many have so concluded. However, the House has a duty to make loud and clear that it does not endorse, condone, or agree with her outrageous, undignified rhetoric and brazen violations of the standards of official conduct that do not reflect creditably on the House of Representatives.”

Greene and other extreme right-wing members of the House Republican caucus have made specious claims about President Joe Biden and members of his family, but have yet to produce a shred of evidence proving any illegal actions.

The reason for the repeated GOP attacks on the Biden family is simple: It’s payback for the two impeachments of failed former president Donald Trump. He is the only president in U.S. history to ever be impeached twice.
