"Highly credible" whistleblowers have come forward to a senior Senate Republican alleging a widespread effort within the FBI to downplay or discredit negative information about President Joe Biden's son, Hunter Biden, according to letters reviewed by CBS News.
"The information provided to my office involves concerns about the FBI's receipt and use of derogatory information relating to Hunter Biden, and the FBI's false portrayal of acquired evidence as disinformation," GOP Sen. Chuck Grassley wrote FBI Director Christopher Wray and Attorney General Merrick Garland on July 25. "The volume and consistency of these allegations substantiate their credibility and necessitate this letter."
Grassley, the ranking member on the Senate Judiciary Committee, said the whistleblowers alleged that legitimate streams of information and intelligence about the president's son were characterized as likely disinformation or prematurely shut down leading up to the 2020 presidential election.

At the risk of being flamed, I have to criticize Trump for not doing enough to clean out that nest of vipers when he had the chance. That should be the first order of business on 22 Jan 2024.
Light his ass up !
Downplay = COVERUP
Did the FBI ever fish hunters laptop out of the Potomac where they threw it?
well, it was that, or ordered from on high...
Just trying to influence another election while letting mass shooters run free.
.
Hunter has been making Millions from oligarchs and bad Foreign actors for at least 21 years.
The only convo on the case by “investigators” is how to be rebut charges of obvious favoritism and agency corruption, in my opinion.
A large fine will be substituted for Justice, but there’s no shortage of people wanting to give the Biden’s money.
Shut down or cut back the whole intelligence apparatus. They’re all up to no good.
“Is that your website?”
Not my website, just a web site with Hunter’s antics archived.
Disgusting ass dude that he is!
.
Dems are investigating Trump for (Jan) 2021 actions.
These comments refer to an effort before the Presidential Election.
Sending a letter to Wray and Merrick Garland - has to be a better way.
.
He was under fake investigation the whole term and everyone in DC took it seriously. Quite a mind job.
I agree with Chuck on this. It shows how far into the swamp that the FBI has fallen.
Looks like old Chuck is going to pass away from “covid” pretty soon.
C’mon. CBS is releasing this? This is a D hit job. They want Biden to go. It is so obvious.
It positively proves there are family-wide business dealings, intermingling of funds. It positively proved there is shady business dealings with foreign nationals with a positively bad probability that the sitting President is compromised, and a past Vice President was compromised. It positively show illegal conduct by Hunter and Brandon.
See? It's all possitive!
Grassley has sounded like that since 1959.
He’s like those southern senators from times past; you think he’s a rube but he’ll eat your lunch.
I’d wager he can kick your ass right now. Grassley’s problem is that he doesn’t recognize Constitutional limits on the subjects Congress can spend on. He’s told me to my face several times, and told the same to all Iowans on the Jan Michaelson radio show.
Disband the FBI.
Yup. Sounds like the Dems are ready to ditch Biden for 2024 (or sooner), and this is the perfect way for him to be gone.
Captain Obvious!
