After missing multiple deadlines to produce a document that allegedly exposes a Joe Biden bribery scheme from back when he was Vice President, the FBI decided at the last minute to produce it before Congressional Republicans were set to vote on holding Director Chris Wray in contempt of Congress.
According to The Blaze:
The FBI decided Wednesday to provide the House Oversight Committee full access to the sought-after document detailing alleged criminal activity involving President Joe Biden.
In turn, House Committee on Oversight and Accountability Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) removed the vote to hold Wray in contempt from Thursday's schedule.
The House Oversight Committee had released a resolution and accompanying report earlier in the day, recommending the House of Representatives hold Wray in contempt of Congress and setting a vote for Thursday at 9:00 a.m.
The FBI offered every lawmaker on the Committee the record, which Speaker McCarthy said was sufficient for Wray to avoid a contempt charge. Meanwhile, Comer said in a statement; “After weeks of refusing to even admit the FD-1023 record exists, the FBI has caved and is now allowing all members of the Oversight and Accountability Committee to review this unclassified record that memorializes a confidential human source’s conversations with a foreign national who claimed to have bribed then-Vice President Joe Biden”
According to Comer, the information contained in the record is from a “highly credible informant” that was part of the FBI for 13 years, dating back to the Obama administration. The informant alleges that Biden was part of a $5 million bribery scheme with a foreign national where he traded U.S. policy for money. While the American people has yet to see the document - if it wasn't damning, the FBI wouldn't have done all they could to avoid producing it.
