Grassley further pledged to make the FBI report public as soon as the bureau complies with a congressional subpoena to provide an official copy of the FD-1023 form \u2014 something Director Christopher Wray has so far refused to do.<\/p>\n<p>For the last month, Grassley has teamed up with House Oversight and Accountability Committee Chair James Comer to obtain documents from the bureau related to whistleblower claims that FBI Headquarters opened an assessment in August 2020 to discredit derogatory information about Biden. Specifically, Grassley and Comer sought the FD-1023 form used to memorialize an interview with a confidential human source (CHS) and related documents, with Comer issuing Wray a subpoena for the material in early May.<\/p>\n<p>The subpoena and related correspondence indicate the whistleblower has intimate knowledge of the CHS\u2019s claims, with Grassley and Comer revealing that the FD-1023 form was dated June 30, 2020, and alleged a bribe of $5 million. But now we know not only that the FD-1023 form implicating Biden exists \u2014 something Grassley said Wray confirmed on Thursday \u2014 but also that Grassley has already seen the form.<\/p>\n<h2>What This Means<\/h2>\n<p>This proves significant because it means Grassley and Comer weren\u2019t merely taking the whistleblower at his word, but that an FBI document confirmed the whistleblower\u2019s claims. Several key points follow from this revelation.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Bolsters Grassley\u2019s Characterizations:<\/strong> The fact that Grassley had access to the FD-1023 bolsters the strength of the various characterizations he has made over the last year, such as that the CHS was \u201ctrusted.\u201d<\/li>\n<li><strong>Provides Specifics:<\/strong> The form would have provided specifics to support that conclusion, such as the CHS\u2019s history of providing verifiable intel to the FBI.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Leads to Further Investigation:<\/strong> Knowing how the alleged scheme was executed would point investigators to the various people and entities involved, allowing relevant bank records to be subpoenaed.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>However, given that Biden led the Obama administration\u2019s policy initiatives in Ukraine, where Hunter Biden was also on the payroll of Burisma, it seems more likely the CHS had intel related to influence-peddling there.<\/p>\n<h2>What Other Documents Has Grassley Seen?<\/h2>\n<p>That Grassley has already seen the FD-1023 summary of the CHS\u2019s allegations raises the likelihood that the senator had access to additional documentary support for the whistleblower\u2019s claims. For instance, according to the whistleblower, FBI Supervisory Intelligence Analyst Brian Auten opened an \u201cassessment\u201d in August 2020 and then improperly discredited the \u201cverified and verifiable\u201d derogatory intel about Hunter Biden.<\/p>\n<p>Has Grassley already seen that assessment? What about the verified information related to Hunter Biden? It seems likely.<\/p>\n<p>And what about the other documents Grassley has requested that Wray provide? Does the senator already have copies of those?<\/p>\n<p>For instance, in one letter to the bureau, Grassley said other FBI records \u201cshed light on Hunter Biden\u2019s business and financial relationship with Burisma owner Mykola Zlochevsky,\u201d and those \u201cdocuments include specific details about conversations by non<a title=\"Whistleblowers: Biden Knew of Hunter's Shady Business Dealings\" href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/whistleblowers-biden-knew-of-hunters-shady-business-dealings\/\">-government individuals relevant<\/a> to potential criminal conduct by Hunter Biden.\u201d Grassley had <a title=\"Grassley saw FBI's hidden whistleblower document.\" href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/grassley-reveals-he-has-already-seen-the-bombshell-whistleblower-doc-the-fbi-is-hiding\/\">previously requested interview summary forms<\/a> that referenced Zlochevsky, including \u201crecordings of verbal communications.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Might Grassley have already obtained access to such records through his whistleblowers? Given that the senator had access to the FD-1023, that\u2019s a very real possibility.<\/p>\n<p>Yet Grassley wants the FBI to release the official FD-1023 form, which he said he would then make public. Here, Grassley is likely working to protect the whistleblower while also ensuring there are no doubts about the authenticity of the form.<\/p>\n<p>Wray continues to defy the subpoena, but in revealing he has already read the FD-1023 form, Grassley also eviscerated the FBI\u2019s position that releasing the form will put sources at risk.<\/p>\n<p>If Wray would read the FD-1023, Grassley said during a Fox News interview, \u201che would know that all these excuses he\u2019s giving us, that he wants to protect sources \u2026 are not an issue with this document.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Whether Wray knew Grassley had already reviewed the CHS report before hiding behind a desire to protect sources is unclear. What is clear is that Grassley knows much more than the<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sen.
