When asked about whether the FBI had an FD-1023 form containing what some allege is evidence of bribery involving the Biden family, whether the federal agency had investigated the allegation, and if the FBI would hand over related documents and audio recordings, Abbate refused to comment. <\/p>\n<p> \u201cI&#8217;m just not going to comment on information we&#8217;ve received, investigations,\u201d Abbate told Cruz. \u201cThis is an area I&#8217;m not going to get into.\u201d <\/p>\n<p> Reflecting on the exchange, Cruz told Hannity there is no legal reason to withhold information. <\/p>\n<p> \u201cThere\u2019s no legal barrier,\u201d Cruz said. &#8220;He\u2019s simply sitting there with that smug smirk on his face because the FBI senior leadership believes they\u2019re unaccountable \u2014 they\u2019re not accountable to Congress, they\u2019re not accountable to the American people.\u201d <\/p>\n<p> Cruz called upon Biden to stop \u201cmocking the American people\u201d and address the allegation. <\/p>\n<p> CLICK HERE TO READ MORE FROM THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER <\/p>\n<p> \u201cI don\u2019t know whether it is true or false that Biden, in fact, took this bribe,\u201d Cruz said. \u201cBut you know who knows to 100% certainty? Joe Biden. And if it\u2019s false, he could call on the FBI. He could direct the FBI, hand over the 1023, hand over the 17 voice recordings because &#8216;they will exonerate me and demonstrate my innocence.&#8217; He\u2019s not doing that.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd these allegations, if true, Joe Biden should be impeached, he should be removed from office, he should be prosecuted, and he should go to prison,\u201d Cruz said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sen.
