FBI refuses to give Congress informant file alleging Biden took bribes as vice president

[excalibur]

“While the FBI has failed to produce the specific document by the subpoena deadline, their offer to provide an accommodation process in response to our legitimate request indicates the document is real. So the question remains, what did the FBI do to investigate very serious allegations from an apparent trusted FBI source implicating then-Vice President Biden? Today’s letter from the FBI raises additional questions, including whether the FBI has an open investigation based on these allegations. The American people pay the FBI’s salaries, and they’re entitled to a fulsome response,” Grassley said.

“It’s clear from the FBI’s response that the unclassified record the Oversight Committee subpoenaed exists, but they are refusing to provide it to the Committee. We’ve asked the FBI to not only provide this record, but to also inform us what it did to investigate these allegations. The FBI has failed to do both. The FBI’s position is ‘trust, but you aren’t allowed to verify.’ That is unacceptable. We plan to follow up with the FBI and expect compliance with the subpoena,” said Chairman Comer.​

When the FBI has reached the point of no accountability to Congress, then they have reached the point of no return!!

The FBI's refusal to turn over criminal evidence is a clear indication that the FBI (and the DOJ) are CCP assets.

Do you have any evidence whatsoever that this document exists? No one has ever reported seeing it, except the anonymous source, who reported it to Comer, and not the whistleblowers office.

Given that every single one of these FBI “whistleblowers”, Jordan and his cronies promise would provide “bombshell evidence” of corruption, has produced nothing, Republicans are gonna have to start producing evidence of their wild claims before anyone believes the word they say.

These so called “bombshells” were “cherry bombs”. Even FOX news is questioning the Committee on their complete lack of evidence of any of their claims.

So now we have a situation where a man who has absolutely no proof of the any claims he has made, is saying that the FBI refuses to produce this mythical document, that no one has confirmed seeing except his anonymous source who he has not revealed, and that the FBI has never confirmed even exists.

I don’t think it’s clear at all. The FBI has said that they’re prepared to work with the Committee on their investigation, but that in no way confirms the existence of this document or that is says what Comer is telling you it says.

This is no different than seven Benghazi, hearings, all of which ended with the Republican chairman saying “Hillary Clinton is guilty and we’re going to keep investigating until we find the truth”.

25+ investigations. Hillary sat for 11 1/2 hours of testimony in the House. She has never refused to provide evidence, stonewalled or lied to Congress. She’s never been charged with a single crime.

The Clintons head up one of the most respected private Foundations in the world rated 5 stars by every charitable ratings organization. Their unique “direct management” of programs and resources has ensured that the medical supplies and life-saving AIDS drugs, reach the intended population, instead of being diverted to the black market and sold to line the pockets of dictators and warlords. Their work has drawn praise worldwide from both the governments and NGO’s with whom they work.

Trump’s private foundation was stripped of its license to operate for illegal fundraising, making illegal campaign contributions (bribes), and using funds raised for personal and business expenses. Trump has been barred from sitting on the board of any charity in the state of New York. And that was after the Washington post had to shame him into disbursing the $5 million he raised to veterans charities. Trump didn’t write a single check for any of those monies until three days after WAPO’s exposee.

Cut their funding until they comply.... hell they are a worthless biased agency anyway....

Defund the FBI, defund the DHS

Boom! All but acknowledging the truthfulness of the allegations against the Biden Crime Family.

The FBI has NO RIGHT to stand between Congress and this investigation and keep these matters from the American people.

​

The FBI has refused to give Congress an informant file alleging that President Biden took bribes while he was vice president, The Post has learned — setting up a possible showdown over access to the information.​

​

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) issued a legally binding subpoena last week requiring the FBI to turn over the file by noon Wednesday, but the bureau instead replied with a six-page letter raising various objections.​

​

“Information from confidential human sources is unverified and, by definition, incomplete,” wrote FBI acting assistant director for congressional affairs Christopher Dunham, who also argued that informant reports must also be kept private to protect sources.​

​

“As is clear from the name itself, confidentiality is definitional to the FBI’s Confidential Human Source program,” Dunham wrote. “Confidential human sources often provide information to the FBI at great risk to themselves and their loved ones. The information they provide also can create significant risks to others who may be referenced in their reporting.”​

​

Comer slammed the FBI’s stonewalling, though he did not immediately announce further steps to acquire the document. Congress has the power to apply financial pressure to agencies or use litigation to enforce orders.​

​

“It’s clear from the FBI’s response that the unclassified record the Oversight Committee subpoenaed exists, but they are refusing to provide it to the Committee,” Comer said.​
