House Republicans have focused on Hollywood producer Lanette Phillips, who introduced Hunter Biden to his lawyer and art dealer in 2019, as part of the impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden.
They are seeking Phillips for a transcribed interview to understand the nature of Hunter Biden’s financial relationships and art sales, including concerns about potential influence peddling and money laundering.
The investigation also revealed financial transactions involving Joe Biden’s family members from foreign business ventures.

“Given Hunter Biden’s long record of influence peddling, the Committees seek to understand whether Kevin Morris’s substantial financial support for Hunter Biden was intended to benefit, curry favor with, or gain access to Joe Biden,” James Comer and Jim Jordan wrote.
“As the person who introduced Morris to Hunter Biden, the Committees believe that you have information relevant to that question.”
“The Committees must understand the nature of Hunter Biden’s art endeavor,” they said. “Indeed, the high-dollar sales of paintings by a novice like Hunter Biden raise considerable suspicion given his years of peddling access to his father and capitalizing on the Biden name.”
