Wray misleads Congress on FBI’s concealment of credible Biden bribery report
FBI Director Christopher Wray made a shocking revelation on Tuesday, claiming that he only recently learned about the Ukrainian energy giant Burisma’s alleged bribery of the Bidens. This contradicts earlier testimony from whistleblowers and the Pittsburgh U.S. attorney, suggesting a possible cover-up of the CHS’s reporting.
During a Judiciary Committee hearing, Senator Chuck Grassley grilled Wray about the FBI’s handling of a highly credible CHS’s report from June 2020, which implicated the Biden family in a bribery scandal. At the time, the U.S. attorney’s office in Pittsburgh was reviewing evidence related to Ukrainian corruption, and FBI agents were instructed to reinterview the CHS who had mentioned Hunter Biden’s involvement with Burisma.
Further questioning of the CHS led to the explosive FD-1023, which detailed the alleged $5 million bribes paid to Hunter and Joe Biden by Burisma. These payments were in addition to the millions already received by Hunter Biden and his business partner for their positions on Burisma’s board of directors.
So when did Wray become aware of the FD-1023? He failed to provide a specific timeframe but claimed it was much later than 2020. However, previous testimony indicated that FBI headquarters had to approve any investigative steps taken by the Pittsburgh office. This raises questions about who may have buried the damning report.
Brady, the former U.S. attorney, testified that FBI headquarters had strict control over the investigation and that the assessment had to be renewed every 30 days. Despite corroborating details in the FD-1023, the Pittsburgh office lacked the authority to take further action and instead passed the report to the Delaware U.S. attorney’s office.
Wray’s response to Grassley’s question about investigative steps taken was misleading, suggesting that the former U.S. attorney was responsible for the investigation’s closure. However, Brady confirmed that his office recommended further actions to the Delaware office, indicating that the FBI’s involvement did not end with the assessment’s closure in Pittsburgh.
By deflecting and avoiding transparency, Wray’s actions imply that the FBI did nothing in response to evidence implicating the Bidens in a bribery scandal. This raises serious concerns about the integrity of the investigation.

How does the FBI’s handling of the Burisma investigation raise concerns about the agency’s commitment to uncovering the truth and bringing those involved to justice?
Ng by Grassley revealed that Wray was unaware of the specific details of Burisma’s alleged bribery of the Bidens until recently. This raises serious questions about the FBI’s handling of the investigation and whether there was a deliberate effort to conceal or downplay the evidence.
The CHS’s report, which was deemed highly credible by the U.S. attorney’s office in Pittsburgh, implicated Hunter Biden and his father, Joe Biden, in a bribery scandal involving Burisma, a Ukrainian energy company. The report suggested that the Bidens received significant financial benefits in exchange for political favors.
Despite the seriousness of these allegations, it seems that the FBI did not thoroughly investigate the matter. Wray’s admission of only recently learning about the evidence raises concerns about the agency’s commitment to uncovering the truth and bringing those involved to justice.
This revelation also raises questions about the credibility of previous testimonies and statements from whistleblowers. If the FBI director himself was unaware of the evidence, it suggests that there may be a larger effort to cover up or dismiss any allegations against the Bidens.
The American people deserve transparency and accountability from their law enforcement agencies, especially when it involves potential corruption at the highest levels of government. The FBI’s handling of this case raises doubts about its ability to impartially investigate matters involving powerful individuals.
These revelations come at a critical time, as Joe Biden is set to assume the presidency. It is crucial that any potential conflicts of interest or allegations of corruption are thoroughly examined and addressed, regardless of political affiliations.
The FBI must provide clear and detailed explanations for its handling of this investigation. It is unacceptable that the agency responsible for upholding the law and ensuring justice would allow any political biases or considerations to interfere with its duty.
The American people deserve a thorough and impartial investigation into the allegations against the Bidens. This case highlights the need for transparency, accountability, and integrity within our law enforcement agencies. It is essential that the FBI restore public trust by addressing these concerns and ensuring a fair and impartial investigation into all parties involved.
Only through a commitment to the truth can we maintain the integrity of our democracy and hold our leaders accountable. The revelations surrounding the FBI’s handling of the Burisma investigation raise serious doubts about the agency’s ability to fulfill its duty and uphold the principles of justice. It is imperative that these concerns are addressed swiftly and transparently to restore faith in our law enforcement institutions.
