“I learned yesterday for the first time that the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Delaware advised my legal counsel, also yesterday, that they are investigating my tax affairs,” reads a statement from Hunter Biden, released from Biden Transition Team on Wednesday.
“I take this matter very seriously but I am confident that a professional and objective review of these matters will demonstrate that I handled my affairs legally and appropriately, including with the benefit of professional tax advisors.”
“President-elect Biden is deeply proud of his son,” followed the Transition Team statement. “[Hunter] has fought through difficult challenges, including the vicious personal attacks of recent months, only to emerge stronger.”
