Hunter Biden's Hollywood lawyer teases counter-offensive against Trump allies
CBSN
The Hollywood lawyer working with Hunter Biden has recruited a team of more than 30 lawyers and investigators to probe the backstory of how a laptop containing years of personal and intimate emails and business records found its way to news reporters and authorities.
The effort led by Kevin Morris, a maverick entertainment lawyer best known for crafting a 9-figure deal for the creators of the animated series "South Park," appears to be part of an attempt to blunt the impact of an ongoing federal investigation into Hunter Biden's tax records and business dealings.
Morris and his team have been circulating provocative slides that tease a coming counter-narrative to political attacks against the president's son. An ongoing Republican-led investigation into Hunter Biden's overseas business dealings is widely expected to escalate if the party takes control of the House or Senate and gains subpoena power. Republicans say the investigation aims to determine if Hunter Biden's work created any conflicts for his father as a U.S. senator, vice president or presidential candidate.
