The House Oversight Committee last week subpoenaed the FBI to declassify a document which alleges that Joe Biden was part of a criminal scheme back when he was vice president under Barack Obama.
Joe Biden Whistleblower Comes Forward to House Oversight Committee
The document alleges a bribery scheme between Joe Biden and a “foreign national.”
It goes into detail about Biden being part of an arrangement to receive money for pushing certain policy positions.
Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) and Rep. James Comer (R-KY) reported that a whistleblower came forward to the House Oversight Committee.
Joe Biden Whistleblower Comes Forward to House Oversight Committee
Grassley and Comer wrote a letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland and FBI Director Christopher Wray demanding the “FBI produce an unclassified record alleging a criminal scheme involving then-Vice President Joe Biden and a foreign national.”
Read the letter below:
“We believe the FBI possesses an unclassified internal document that includes very serious and detailed allegations implicating the current President of the United States. What we don’t know is what, if anything, the FBI has done to verify these claims or investigate further. The FBI’s recent history of botching politically charged investigations demands close congressional oversight,” Grassley said.
“The information provided by a whistleblower raises concerns that then-Vice President Biden allegedly engaged in a bribery scheme with a foreign national. The American people need to know if President Biden sold out the United States of America to make money for himself. Senator Grassley and I will seek the truth to ensure accountability for the American people,” Comer added.
The latest reports suggest the FBI and DOJ are failing to provide the requested documents by the House Oversight Committee.
"The FBI failed to produce the subpoenaed FBI generated FD-1023 record that allegedly details a bribery scheme involving then-VP Biden and a foreign national," the House Oversight Committee tweeted.
"It’s clear from the FBI’s response the unclassified record exists."

The House Oversight Committee wrote this press release:
House Committee on Oversight and Accountability Chairman James Comer and Senator Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) issued the following statements on the FBI failing to comply with Chairman Comer’s subpoena seeking an unclassfied FBI generated FD-1023 form that allegedly details a bribery scheme involving then-Vice President Joe Biden and a foreign national.
“It’s clear from the FBI’s response that the unclassified record the Oversight Committee subpoenaed exists, but they are refusing to provide it to the Committee. We’ve asked the FBI to not only provide this record, but to also inform us what it did to investigate these allegations. The FBI has failed to do both. The FBI’s position is ‘trust, but you aren’t allowed to verify.’ That is unacceptable. We plan to follow up with the FBI and expect compliance with the subpoena,” said Chairman Comer.
“While the FBI has failed to produce the specific document by the subpoena deadline, their offer to provide an accommodation process in response to our legitimate request indicates the document is real. So the question remains, what did the FBI do to investigate very serious allegations from an apparent trusted FBI source implicating then-Vice President Biden? Today’s letter from the FBI raises additional questions, including whether the FBI has an open investigation based on these allegations. The American people pay the FBI’s salaries, and they’re entitled to a fulsome response,” Senator Grassley said.
Based on whistleblower disclosures, the Department of Justice and the Federal Bureau of Investigation possess an unclassified FD-1023 form that describes an alleged criminal scheme involving then-Vice President Biden and a foreign national relating to the exchange of money for policy decisions. It has been alleged that the document includes a precise description of how the alleged criminal scheme was employed as well as its purpose.
