House Judiciary passes resolution to hold Hunter Biden in contempt of Congress, setting up full floor vote

The House Judiciary Committee passed a resolution to hold Hunter Biden in contempt of Congress for defying a congressional subpoena as part of the House impeachment inquiry against President Biden, setting up a full vote on the House floor in the coming days that would recommend the first son for prosecution.  

The vote at the House Judiciary Committee was 23-14. A source familiar tells Fox News Digital a full House floor vote could come as early as next week.

The House Oversight Committee also met for a markup Wednesday at 10 a.m. to consider the resolution that recommends contempt proceedings against the first son after he refused to comply with a subpoena compelling him to appear for a closed-door deposition. 

The resolution has not yet been passed out of Oversight and their meeting is ongoing.
