Perhaps those who are pulling the strings on Joe Bien want to get the word out that you best not disagree with the Democratic Party positions or we will bring you down.
I personally suspect the FBI has files on every politician, any malfeasances he has done or any promiscuous sexual activities he has enjoyed (Jeffrey Epstein). If that politician steps out of line, he will be reminded and warned or prosecuted.
J. Edgar Hoover was known as the most powerful man in D.C. because of the files he had on everybody.
J. Edgar Hoover, U.S. public official who, as director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation from 1924 until his death in 1972, built that agency into a highly effective, if occasionally controversial, arm of federal law enforcement. Learn more about Hoover in this article.

Hoover habitually used the FBI’s enormous surveillance and information-gathering powers to collect damaging information on politicians throughout the country, and he kept the most scurrilous data under his own personal control. He used his possession of these secret files to maintain himself as the FBI’s director and was apparently able to intimidate even sitting presidents by threatening to leak damaging disclosures about them. By the early 1970s he had come under public criticism for his authoritarian administration of the FBI and for his persecution of those he regarded as radicals and subversives. He retained his post, however, until his death at age 77, by which time he had been the FBI’s chief for 48 years and had served 8 presidents and 18 attorneys general.
