Senator Chuck Grassley (R-IA) and Rep. James Comer (R-KY) sent a letter to FBI Director Christopher Wray and Attorney General Merrick Garland requesting more information about an “alleged criminal scheme” between President Joe Biden and a “foreign national” during his tenure as vice president Wednesday.
“We have received legally protected and highly credible unclassified whistleblower disclosures,” wrote Grassley and Comer. “Based on those disclosures, it has come to our attention that the Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) possess an unclassified FD-1023 form that describes an alleged criminal scheme involving then-Vice President Biden and a foreign national relating to the exchange of money for policy decision.”
The two Republicans said that the document is believed to include “a precise description” of the criminal scheme and that “the significant public interest” in the agencies’ handling of the allegation, as well as those agencies’ “track record of allowing political bias to infect their decision-making process” means that the matter requires “exacting confessional oversight.”
In his capacity as chairman of the House Oversight Committee, Comer issued a subpoena for the form in a separate letter addressed to Wray. The FBI director is required to turn the form over by noon on May 10th.
