US President Joe Biden is suspected of participating in corruption schemes during his vice presidency. Two Republican congressmen claim they had obtained anonymous information about it.
House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer and Senator Chuck Grassley have sent an open letter to U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland and FBI Director Christopher Wray, alleging that U.S. President Joe Biden may have been involved in corruption schemes during his tenure as vice president.
The senators said they received information from an anonymous whistleblower that the Justice Department and FBI had a classified Form FD-1023 "describing an alleged criminal scheme involving then-Vice President Biden and a foreign national involving the exchange of money for political decisions."
“The Department of Justice and the FBI have valuable, verifiable information that they are not releasing to the American people. Therefore, the Congress will consider this issue independently and impartially," the congressmen wrote.
White House spokesman Jan Sams accused Republicans of "anonymous defamation" and linked the subpoena with the Republican Party's investigation into Biden and his family.
Comer has long accused the Biden family of systematic corruption
Since 2020, James Comer has been publicly accusing people associated with Biden of being involved in various corrupt schemes. In January 2023, he asked Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen for information about "suspicious business transactions" by members of the president's family.
In March, he asked Bank of America for bank documents related to Joe Biden's son Hunter's business partners. Biden has always denied involvement in his son's foreign business operations. Biden's lawyers accused Comer of spreading "fabricated and already disproven conspiracy theories about the Biden family."
