3 Scandals Surrounding FBI-Biden Bribery Case

The Biden Family’s Influence Peddling

The scandal surrounding FBI Director Christopher Wray’s refusal to provide an unclassified document to the House Oversight Committee has brought to light the Biden family’s potentially criminal influence peddling. The House Oversight Committee’s review of thousands of records shows that during Joe Biden’s vice presidency, the Biden family and their business associates created over 20 companies, through which they received over $10 million from foreign nationals and their related companies. The money flowed to Biden family members, many of whom had no relevant skills or experience, and at times, there was no evidence they rendered any services.

These findings build on the earlier work of Republican Sens. Charles Grassley and Ron Johnson, who detailed dubious Biden family dealings with Russian, Kazakh, and Ukrainian nationals. The Biden family’s apparent monetizing of Joe’s office, including in Ukraine, alongside its apparent efforts to disguise associated transactions dovetail with the bribery allegation.

  • Foreign companies sent money to business associates’ companies
  • The Biden family received incremental payments over time to different bank accounts
  • Complicated financial transactions appear to conceal the source of the funds and reduce the conspicuousness of the total amounts made into the Biden bank accounts

Consistent with this practice, Chairman Comer has intimated that the FD-1023 suggests then-Vice President Biden “asked that the [alleged bribe] money be sent through shell companies and various banks to launder it to where no one would know about it.”

Several additional red flags beyond the FBI’s steadfast unwillingness to share the document until under duress suggest this is a serious allegation. FBI officials confirmed the FD-1023 “has not been disproven and stated several times the information contained within it is currently being used in an ongoing investigation.”

Biden Bribery Allegations: What You Need to Know

Recently, explosive allegations have surfaced regarding a potential bribery scheme involving Joe Biden and his son Hunter. According to a FD-1023 form obtained by House Republicans, a Ukrainian energy company called Burisma allegedly offered a $5 million bribe to then-Vice President Biden in exchange for his help in quashing a corruption investigation into the company.

The specifics of the allegation — supposedly with a nexus to Burisma — the logic to it, and the supposed evidence substantiating it, further speak to its veracity.

While Democrats have attempted to dismiss the allegations, claiming they are part of a disinformation campaign, the evidence suggests otherwise. In fact, House Oversight Committee member Rep. Anna Paulina Luna has declared, “There’s no doubt in my mind that Joe Biden is guilty of bribery 100%.”

But the potential ramifications of this alleged bribery scheme go far beyond just Joe Biden. If true, it would cast a pall over U.S. policy with respect to Ukraine under President Biden and suggest that the purpose of the first impeachment of Donald Trump was to cover up and divert attention from such Biden corruption.

The Biden Family Business

But the bribery allegations are just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the Biden family’s questionable dealings. The public must demand a complete accounting of what money the Bidens made, from whom, in exchange for what, when, to what extent it flowed directly or indirectly to Joe Biden, as well as what the president knew and when he knew it regarding the family’s dealings.

Whistleblowers have come forward with information illustrating the hyper-politicization of the FBI and DOJ, and their apparent protection of the Biden family during and after the 2020 election. This raises a critical question: What do these agencies know about Biden family dealings, when did they learn it, and what have they done about it?

  • Did the FBI try to improperly use the August 2020 Brian Auten assessment to shut down the 1023 reporting [of a Biden bribe] by falsely labeling it disinformation?
  • What steps, if any, were taken to investigate the matter?
  • Did the FBI and DOJ protect the Bidens, rather than the U.S. national interest, by turning a blind eye to their dubious dealings?

The seeming compromise at play calls into question the foreign policy of this administration, as well as our national security. Meanwhile, where is our primary law enforcement agency in all this — considering how consumed it has been with foreign interference in the U.S. political system?

The truth about the Biden family’s business dealings must come to light, and those responsible for any wrongdoing must be held accountable.

The FBI’s Cover-up and Biden’s Bribery Allegations

Recent events have brought to light three potential scandals involving the FBI and the Biden family. The first concerns allegations of bribery, with a document known as the FD-1023 form at the center of the controversy. According to Representative James Comer, there may be other forms related to Biden-bribery that we are not yet aware of. This is a serious accusation that demands further investigation.

“There are other forms, as well … we don’t know how many form 1023s are pertaining to Biden-bribery.” – Representative James Comer

FBI Obstructionism

The second scandal involves the FBI’s apparent cover-up of its efforts to protect the Biden family. Why did the bureau go to such great lengths to keep the FD-1023 form from congressional investigators? The FBI obstructed congressional oversight efforts in various ways, including delaying its response to the subpoena for the document, briefing investigators on tangential topics, and even refusing to confirm the document’s existence for a time. When the document was finally provided to the full committee, it was only after a draft contempt resolution was released.

This kind of behavior is unacceptable and illustrates a broader pattern of our national security and law enforcement apparatus operating as if it were above Congress and the law.

The Deep State’s Pattern of Obstructionism

This pattern of obstructionism is consistent with what we saw during the Russiagate scandal. Republicans sought out documents that they believed illustrated deep state hyper-politicization, weaponization, or corruption. The deep state and its media stenographers cried “state secrets” and “sources and methods” to claim that transparency threatened security. When the documents were finally released, they were often heavily redacted, but they confirmed Republican concerns and exposed the deep state’s malfeasance.

In the case of the FD-1023 form, the FBI used the same “sources and methods” excuse, despite Republican assurances that they would accept the document with appropriate safeguards for the informant. After Comer reviewed the document, Representative Luna tweeted that “The FBI is afraid their informant will be killed if unmasked, based on the info he has brought forward about the Biden family.” This statement raises questions about the FBI’s motives and whether they were more concerned about protecting Biden than the informant.

If the FBI genuinely believes that the informant could be killed, that is indicative of the allegation’s veracity. Who does the FBI fear exactly? Foreign actors? Domestic ones?

Despite FBI Director Wray’s skirting of contempt of Congress, it is clear that this trio of apparent scandals reflects our ruling class’s total and utter contempt for the American people.
