Fox News Sunday host Maria Bartiromo interviews James Comer and asks where all the criminal referrals are. That is a question a lot of conservatives are asking. Comer claims that in the case of many crimes that have been committed, the statute of limitations has run out, but the good news is that the criminal referrals that have been made have a five-year statute of limitations, which means even though we know Garland will ignore them, Trump’s administration, starting on January 21st, will be able to charge those criminals.

Maria Bartiromo: “Where are the criminal referrals for Hunter Biden and James Biden over perjury, for lying to Congress? Where are the criminal referrals, if that’s all true? Where are the criminal referrals for FARA, for money laundering, for corruption, for influence peddling? Where are those?”
Rep. James Comer: “Yeah. Well, we’re just beginning, Maria. A lot of those crimes that the Bidons have committed, the statute of limitations has run out. That was one of the complaints that the Irish whistleblower said when we had them testify in our committee. But we’re going to deal with those, and we’re going to deal with Joe Biden. Remember, this is an investigation of Joe Biden. Hunter Biden, Jim Biden, Eric Sherwin, Devin Archer. These are all witnesses in an investigation of Joe Biden. This was always about Joe Biden. We’re going to do everything we can to hold Hunter Biden and all the different shady associates accountable. This is just the beginning. But the next step will be accountability for Joe Biden.”
I think everyone who’s kept up with this investigation will be very eager to see what the next step is. This is the first step: these criminal referrals. Everything that we refer to as the Department of Justice is within the statute of limitations. In fact, there’s a five-year statute of limitations. So if Merrick Garland’s Department of Justice doesn’t take this up in an inappropriate manner, then the next administration and a new Attorney General certainly can. The investigation has already been done.
With these criminal referrals, we published a 60-page report of nothing hard evidence that no one has made a comment disputing anything we provided in the evidence.

Rep. James Comer: Well, I think that it’s no secret Joe Biden has committed many crimes, and I think that you’re going to see a report very soon. That report is imminent. That’ll probably be an interim report that updates everyone on the crimes that Biden and his administration have committed throughout this investigation and through the years of the Obama Biden administration.
Maria Bartiromo: You have subpoena power. Why not subpoena these people as well? Put them in the hot seat.
Rep. James Comer: We’ve subpoenaed all the associates. The only person to is Joe Biden. As you know, it’s hard to subpoena a sitting President, or the Democrats would have done that to Donald Trump. But I think that what we’ve done in all of our depositions and interviews has been very substantive, and it’s going to be very useful in accountability.
