However, the FBI has refused to deliver the sought-after record, prompting discussions among lawmakers about how to escalate the fight considering a subpoena deadline has come and gone.<\/p>\n<h3>Comer&#8217;s Plan of Action<\/h3>\n<p>Comer <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/fbi-refuses-provide-subpoenaed-document-alleged-biden-criminal-scheme\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">told Fox News<\/a> that he has spoken to House Speaker <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/topic\/kevin-mccarthy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Kevin McCarthy<\/a> (R-CA) about possibly holding FBI Director <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/topic\/christopher-wray\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Christopher Wray<\/a> in contempt of Congress.

Chuck Grassley (R-IA), a known champion for whistleblowers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe need to take extreme measures in trying to get this whistleblower to come forward publicly and say what exactly is in this document,\u201d Comer said. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/2021-tokyo-games-moving-forward-as-scheduled\/\" title=\"2021 Tokyo Games moving forward as scheduled\">chairman added<\/a> that House Republicans need to demand that GOP senators hold the bureau\u2019s budget \u201chostage\u201d until the FBI gets new leadership or delivers the record he seeks.<\/p>\n<h3>White House Response<\/h3>\n<p>Democrats have accused their GOP counterparts of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/comer-urges-feds-not-to-indict-hunter-biden-before-wednesday\/\" title=\"Comer urges delay in Hunter Biden indictment.\">ignoring alleged misconduct<\/a> by former President Donald Trump while trying to dig up \u201cdirt\u201d on the Biden family.
