Comer said in his opening statement that Biden family members and their associates “raked in over $20 million between 2014 and 2019” from foreign sources. “What were the Bidens selling to make all this money? Joe Biden himself,” he said.

    What do you allege Joe Biden or his family was bribed to do while Joe Biden was a private citizen?

      Bribes don’t have to be for a specific thing you want right this second dude. Garnering favor with those close to or in power doesn’t need an explicit predefined goal. Just because he wasn’t holding public office at the time doesn’t mean he didn’t have any political power, or that it was somehow unlikely that he’d ever hold a public office again.

        I agree, but it’s not bribery of Joe Biden if someone gives a gift to his son.

          Well they couldn’t exactly hire Joe himself. Giving his embarrassing son a well paying do nothing job far away from the US to keep him out of trouble could be seen as a gift, depending on his level of involvement.
