I wrote about this story earlier today, pointing out that prior to this week the media’s general approach to unsubstantiated allegations about a US president was to publish the allegations and hash them out in public with the understanding that someone else was responsible for figuring out what’s true later.
This afternoon, Fox News has another update on the story. This report claims the source behind the allegation is considered credible and has been used by the FBI in multiple previous investigations. Boy, this is really giving me a Christopher Steele flashback.
A source familiar told Fox News Digital on Friday that the confidential human source who provided the Biden information to the FBI was a “pre-existing” FBI source who has been used in multiple investigative matters separate from the Biden information.
The source told Fox News Digital that the confidential human source was used by the FBI for “at least several years” before the generation of the June 2020 FD-1023 form detailing the Biden allegations.
The source also told Fox News Digital that the confidential human source has been “consistently reviewed by the FBI” and has been “found to be highly credible.”
According to the whistleblower who told Fox News about the existence of this FD-1023 form containing this allegation, it’s a “precise description of how the alleged criminal scheme was employed.”
It definitely sounds like something that should be investigated but I think we’ve all learned by now that the FBI’s judgment often leaves something to be desired. They had worked with Christopher Steele before the dossier and considered him credible as well, at least until it became clear he was doing his best to spread the story in the media at the behest of his partisan paymasters.
