[BLAZE] The Federal Bureau of Investigation refused Wednesday to comply with the House Oversight Committee’s subpoena that required the agency to turn over an unclassified informant report alleging that President Biden accepted bribes from a foreign national while he was vice president, the New York Post reported.
Last week, the House Oversight Committee issued a subpoena for an FBI file, FD-1023, that "describes an alleged criminal scheme involving then-Vice President Biden and a foreign national relating to the exchange of money for policy decisions," Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) and Senate Budget Committee ranking member Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) wrote in a letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland and FBI Director Christopher Wray.
"We have received legally protected and highly credible unclassified whistleblower disclosures," Comer and Grassley stated.
The informant report was "created or modified in June 2020," several months before Biden was declared the winner of the presidential election.
The FBI was required to turn over the document by noon Wednesday and provide proof that the bureau investigated the allegations. However, Comer said the agency "failed to do both." |
