On Friday, House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) wrote the FBI demanding they turn over a document alleging a bribery scheme involving then Vice President Joe Biden.
The document in question is not classified.
Speaker Kevin McCarthy on Sunday said the FBI is poised to turn the damning document over to the Oversight Committe.
But later today the FBI told Republicans to pound sand – the agency penned a letter to Comer they will not be turning over the document.
..... Snip.....
The Daily Mail reported
Speaker Kevin McCarthy has declared the FBI is poised to hand over a potentially damning document involving President Joe Biden – after an impassioned phone call with the bureau’s director.
Appearing for a televised interview Sunday, the California rep offered some insight as to what transpired between him and director Christopher Wray on the Friday call, which came a day after feds rebuffed a subpoena requesting the still unseen report.
The official request was sent by House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer, and pertained to a prospective financial form that several GOP lawmakers claim lays out an ‘alleged criminal scheme’ involving Biden and an unnamed foreign national.
However, almost immediately afterward, the bureau’s acting assistant director of congressional affair penned a letter to Comer, a Republican from Kentucky, informing him the agency would not immediately provide the form in question.
The FBI is above the constitution.
Prove me wrong.
thereby admitting its existence.
they KNEW of the treason being committed at the highest level and DID NOTHING.
this is EVIDENCE of their culpability.
CHARGES and ARRESTS are warranted.
The Marxists Dems have total control of the FBI and DOJ. Here comes Socialism.
If he goes to the DOJ, they will say they are looking into it and come back in 2040 for a decision.
I can’t prove you wrong, since you are 💯% right.
Come on now, I’m sure the FBI would have been equally careful sharing documents that concerned President Trump.
McCarthy is a worthless. Why does he keep dancing around with them? Congress has the power to force them to give it up so get on it.
How can they defund the FBI?
Yup! Its all over now by golly! 😴😴😴😴😴😴😴
GOOD... I would do the same if I were the FBI. Congress has one brutal tool. The power of the purse. Every time the FBI violates the law, uses Congressional staffers as informants on their Congressman, flips the the finger, lies, and refuses to obey the law, Congress renews FISA, builds them a new multibillion dollar HQ, etc.
Congress deserves no respect and is getting treated as the weaklings they are.
Want to have F-Troop snap to? Yank their GD leash hard.
Hey Joe, want your debt ceiling raised. We got a deal to propose. You know that nice FBI and DOJ ya got there. Well, it breaks our hearts, but we feel the need to save some money here.
Well, as part of a debt relieve bill they can include a provision to defund the FBI and DOJ.
Notice they waited until after all the Sunday news shows were done to tell Kevin to go f himself.
Put Durham on the case. He should have a report ready by 2030 that will just be thrown in the trash.
“... immediately provide the form in question....”
and then McCarthy notified Director Wray that Congress will immediately withhold funding for the FBI headquarters operation until such time as they become cooperative.. (wishful thinking!!)
Although I suspect Wray is taking orders from the AG.
How pathetic.
McCarthy is such a vapid lightweight, he doesn’t get that these smiling thugs have no repect for him.
Whatta maroon.
Cut off their funding, like my tag line says.
Who does the Congress think they are?
if the video is released tomorrow, he will have learned that lesson.
