Controversial Hunter Biden FBI briefing back in spotlight after whistleblower claims
Washington Examiner ^ | 7/28/22 | Jerry Dunleavy

Posted on 07/28/2022 2:31:29 PM PDT by Libloather

Two top Senate Republicans want answers on a controversial summer 2020 FBI briefing, as whistleblower disclosures claim the bureau improperly labeled evidence on Hunter Biden “disinformation” around the same time.

Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) sent a letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland and FBI Director Christopher Wray this week asking for more details about an Aug. 2020 briefing on alleged Russian influence efforts that he says were pushed on him and then leaked to the press to hurt his investigation into Joe and Hunter Biden. Whistleblowers revealed to him recently that FBI officials were undercutting or burying facts about President Joe Biden’s son around the same time.

FBI supervisory intelligence analyst Brian Auten opened an assessment in Aug. 2020 that “was used by a FBI Headquarters team to improperly discredit negative Hunter Biden information as disinformation and caused investigative activity to cease,” according to whistleblower disclosures.

“Importantly, it’s been alleged to my office that Auten’s assessment was opened in August 2020, which is the same month that Senator Johnson and I received an unsolicited and unnecessary briefing from the FBI that purportedly related to our Biden investigation and a briefing for which the contents were later leaked in order paint the investigation in a false light,” Grassley told Garland and Wray on Monday.

^ Been saying that for over a year, push kamala out, install Hill, then have Biden stroke out. Dems are very capable of doing just that.

Every last POS involved in this corruption should be charged as a co-conspirator to every last crime the Biden Crime Family was involved in. Upon conviction they should all be Hanged Immediately.

Can you imagine how long Biden would have lasted in office had Hillary been his Vice President?
