POLICY WIRE — Washington, United States — A Republican senator from Utah has called for the Senate Judiciary Committee to issue subpoenas to Donald Trump Jr. and Hunter Biden, demanding testimony on their business dealings and connections with foreign individuals and entities.

Senator John Curtis, a member of the GOP, highlighted the recent revelation that a Russian oligarch, Umar Kremlev, funded a private island party for the wedding of Donald Trump Jr., calling it an example of improper influence. He emphasized that while a toaster may be a simple gift, a lavish event paid for by someone linked to Vladimir Putin is a different matter entirely.

In a letter to Senate Judiciary Committee leaders, Curtis urged an investigation into how presidential family members may have used their relationships for personal financial gain or preferential treatment. He cited Hunter Biden’s business activities in China and Ukraine during his father’s presidency and questioned Donald Trump Jr.’s ties to foreign figures and the acceptance of significant gifts, including a post-wedding event hosted by Kremlev.
