On Tuesday, May 30, House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) announced an effort to hold FBI Director Christopher Wray in contempt of Congress if he refuses to disclose an informant file alleging President Biden’s involvement in a $5 million bribery scheme while he was vice president. House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) gave Wray until end of the day, May 30, to comply with a subpoena.
Straight Arrow News contributor Ben Weingarten cites Wray’s behavior as one of numerous examples of the lack of accountability within the U.S. law enforcement system.
Wray may soon find himself in contempt of Congress. That’s what Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer is threatening given the FBI’s unwillingness to comply with a congressional subpoena calling for the FBI to provide a document memorializing information from an informant, detailing an alleged scheme involving then-Vice President Biden and a foreign national relating to the exchange of money for policy decisions — that is a bribe — a $5 million bribe at that, per whistleblower.
Apparently, the FBI met with a committee and provided it mere information about its confidential human source program, rather than addressing the subpoena. Wray apparently now is planning to meet with Comer but Comer said that without the document his committee will initiate the contempt proceedings.
This follows reporting from Comer’s committee showing, based on review of thousands of records in response to subpoenas to four different banks, that “Biden family members and business associates created a web of over 20 companies formed during Joe Biden’s vice presidency, enabling the Bidens and their associates to receive over $10 million from foreign nationals’ companies both during and after Biden was in office. After foreign companies sent money to business associates’ companies,” that report details, “the Biden family received incremental payments over time to different bank accounts. These complicated financial transactions appear to conceal the source of the funds and reduce the conspicuousness of the total amounts made into the Bidens’ accounts.“
Millions in particular seemed to have come from China and Romania. So where the heck have authorities been? What are the odds this ends up as we just found out with the Clinton Foundation investigation, with all the evidence, if the FBI ever compiled it, returned or destroyed?
