Schwerin, who served as a financial adviser to Biden from 2009 to 2017, emphasized that he had never witnessed any evidence indicating that the president had enriched himself through his son's business activities.
In his testimony, Schwerin underscored Biden's commitment to transparency and ethical financial practices, stating that the president had consistently maintained a clear stance on conducting his personal finances.
He explicitly denied any knowledge of financial transactions or compensation received by Biden related to his family members' business dealings.
Additionally, Schwerin affirmed that Biden had no involvement in his son Hunter's business activities, either as a public official or a private citizen.
This testimony serves to debunk the allegations of corruption leveled against President Biden by GOP members, highlighting Schwerin's firsthand experience and access to Biden's financial records.
As the impeachment inquiry unfolds, Schwerin's testimony provides crucial insights into Biden's financial integrity and counters the narrative propagated by his political opponents.
