Hunter Biden’s attorney filed an ethics complaint Friday in response to Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) holding up posters with sexually explicit photos of him during a committee hearing this week, which has drawn sharp rebukes from Democrats and some in the GOP.
Greene on Wednesday held up posters with photos of Biden nude and engaging in sexual activities, and claimed it was evidence he was paying for sexual acts and listing those payments as tax write-offs.
In a letter to the Office of Congressional Ethics, Biden’s attorney, Abbe David Lowell, said Greene’s behavior “blatantly violates House Ethics rules and standards of official conduct” and said the congresswoman “has lowered herself, and by extension the entire House of Representatives, to a new level of abhorrent behavior.”
He noted that while the faces of other people in the photos were blurred, Greene and her staff “took great care to ensure Mr. Biden’s face was not blurred for the American public.”
Democrats have widely condemned Greene for displaying the photos, which took place during a House Oversight Committee hearing centered around allegations the Justice Department mishandled a tax investigation involving President Joe Biden’s son, with Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) telling the Washington Post the images were “completely irrelevant” to the panel’s business.
Greene has since continued sharing footage of her holding the photos on social media.
