Comer fails again to get damning evidence on Biden during meeting with FBI: report
Republicans on the House Oversight Committee failed in their latest gambit to obtain evidence they hope would implicate President Joe Biden in a criminal scheme, reported CNN's Annie Grayer on Monday.
"House Oversight Committee staff met today with FBI officials over the internal FBI document that an unnamed whistleblower claims will show then VP Joe Biden was involved in a criminal scheme involving a foreign national," wrote Grayer on Twitter. "The FBI did not produce the document, I'm told."
House Oversight Chairman James Comer (R-KY) has been seeking this document for weeks, but FBI officials outlined why they are unwilling to turn it over in a letter earlier this month, according to CNN.
“You have asked for what you say is a ‘precise description’ of an ‘alleged criminal scheme’ contained in a single FD-1023 report. You express concern that the FBI has inappropriately ‘failed to disclose’ such a report ‘to the American people,’” wrote FBI acting assistant director for the Office of Congressional Affairs Christopher Dunham.
“It is critical to the integrity of the entire criminal justice process and to the fulfillment of our law enforcement duties that FBI avoid revealing information — including unverified or incomplete information — that could harm investigations, prejudice prosecutions or judicial proceedings, unfairly violate privacy or reputational interests, or create misimpressions in the public.”
The White House itself has blasted the Oversight Committee's move as one of Republican lawmakers' “unfounded politically-motivated attacks.”
This comes amid an admission from Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), who also sits on the committee, that some of the "whistleblowers" who were part of the investigation into the Biden family have gone "missing" and House investigators don't know where they are.
