Congress probing if FBI used ‘Russian disinformation’ claim to shut down Biden inquiries

Loading

By John Solomon

The FBI travels to Capitol Hill on Monday to show House Oversight and Accountability Committee Chairman James Comer a confidential informant memo from summer 2020 alleging that Joe Biden was involved in a foreign bribery scheme, but the contents won’t be a surprise to Republicans. Both Comer and Sen. Chuck Grassley have already read the memo.

The larger question for Teams Comer and Grassley is whether the FBI sidelined the allegation of a $5 million bribery involving U.S. policy – which came from a confidential human source with a trusted track record – during the height of the 2020 election.

Congressional investigators have gathered substantial evidence that a dubious intelligence analysis inside the bureau was used to shut down several other avenues of investigation in the Biden family corruption probe ahead of the presidential election, including in the FBI’s Washington field office. It also was used to thwart a Senate probe led by Sens. Grassley, R-Iowa, and Ron Johnson, R-Wis.

Grassley actually divulged the dubious Russian disinformation analysis and its impact on Biden-related probes inside the FBI during February 2023 testimony to a House committee, though that angle did not get much public attention.

“Whistleblowers approached my office with allegations that the FBI created an assessment in August 2020 – the same month that the FBI briefed me and Senator Johnson,” Grassley testified at the time. “According to these whistleblowers, that assessment was used by FBI Headquarters to improperly discredit negative Hunter Biden information as disinformation. This scheme allegedly caused investigative activity then to entirely cease.”

Hunter Biden is the son of President Joe Biden.

 
Congressional investigators say they now want to know whether the Joe Biden bribery information allegation – contained in a FD-1023 informant report – also was sidelined by the Russian disinformation analysis.

That makes Monday’s briefing by the FBI to Congress all the more important since lawmakers will be able to probe how the bribery allegations were handled.

Grassley has pointed out another peculiarity during the 2020 election: FBI brass took the Biden family allegations and the assessment of their credibility and stored them in a restricted database that kept them from being seen by many agents and analysts.

“It’s been further alleged to me that in September 2020 – the same month Senator Johnson and I released our first report – those FBI Headquarters personnel began placing their analysis of the credibility of reporting related to the Biden family in a restricted access sub-file,” the senator testified 4 months ago.

“Further allegations to my office involved FBI personnel at the Washington Field Office who improperly ordered information to be closed by the FBI related to Hunter Biden’s potential criminal conduct in October 2020 – just before the election – even though it was verified or verifiable.

“Other whistleblower disclosures to my office make clear that the FBI has within its possession very significant, impactful and voluminous evidence with respect to potential criminal conduct by Hunter and James Biden,” he also said. “These disclosures also allege that Joe Biden was aware of Hunter Biden’s business arrangements and may have been involved in some of them.”

James Biden is the president’s brother.

The alliance of Grassley, who has relentlessly stayed in touch with and investigated FBI whistleblowers claims though he is in the Senate minority, and Comer, who as a House majority chairman has subpoena power, has brought the FBI to the moment that will unfold in a secure conference room on Capitol Hill on Monday.

Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, R-Fla., a freshman lawmaker on the House Oversight Committee, said Sunday that the congressional investigation has advanced significantly in recent weeks, and much of the evidence that has not been made public yet points to a pay-to-play scheme in which the Biden family received money as Joe Biden oversaw U.S. policy affected by the then-vice president during the Obama years.

“We’ve actually been able to provide evidence. You know, before there was speculation on the Ponzi scheme for influence peddling and also the personal enrichment of the Biden family. And now what we’re finding is that these are no longer allegations and we’re creating a hard case,” Luna told Fox News host Maria Bartiromo.

“In my opinion, Maria, what we’re seeing right now, if this is true, which I do believe that it is true in regards to Joe Biden receiving bribery and Hunter Biden, I do believe that this is grounds for impeachment,” she also said.

The evidence is clear and growing: idiot Biden is a criminal and a traitor. The worst part of it all is that, from Hunter’s laptop, we had enough information to be suspicious enough to keep this vomitous thief out of the White House but, thanks to election fraud, the lawful election process was abrogated and a true criminal that should not be trusted with national power was let into the Oval Office.

What you had “from Hunter’s laptop” was an altered copy of the hard drive provided shortly before the election by Trump’s drunken drag-queen accomplice, Rudy Giuliani, who was also an operative in the Ukraine extortion attempt and the January 6 “stolen election” bullshit.

That is total bullshit. It has been authenticated. There is no credible evidence to substantiate your premise the laptop from hell had copies in variance from the original.

No one in the biden family has ever disputed the content on the laptop from hell.

There’s no evidence that it matches. This matters a lot when you consider who provided the copy, his motivation, his associates, and his general conduct. Giuliani was recommended for disbarment owing to his misconduct.

There is no evidence that it does not match. God you are stupid.

Stupid for not believing every damn thing Trump and his clown posse say, when there’s no evidence supporting their self-serving claims? We apparently have different definitions of “stupid”.

Trump doesn’t lie. Idiot Biden lies. Did idiot Biden lie when he said:
… the Afghanistan withdrawal went perfectly?
… the southern border is secure?
… Border Patrol mounted agents whipped illegal immigrants?
… inflation is transient?
… gas was $5 a gallon when he took office?
… Putin caused all the inflation?
… there was no vaccine when he took office?
… he has traveled 17,000 miles with Xi?
… that there are no background checks at gun shows?
… that the Georgia election law suppresses the ability to vote?
… the “surge” of illegal immigrants he caused happens every year?
… that he would only serve one term?
… that the disaster at the border is Trump’s fault?
… that the information on Hunter’s laptop was “Russian disinformation”?
… that he had no knowledge of Hunter’s foreign business deals?
… the Supreme Court had decided election fraud cases?
… that he hasn’t taken lobbyist money?
… that he vaccinated (at the time) 70% of the population?
… he has driven an 18-wheeler?
… that the Georgia election integrity law would suppress votes?
… that he was a coal miner?
… he was a civil rights activist?
… he was arrested in the Capital?
… he was arrested in S. Africa?
… 350 million Americans had been vaccinated?
… no foreign leaders had criticized him?
… about nation building and putting soldiers in Afghanistan?
… about not leaving Afghanistan until all Americans were removed?
… that the collapse in Afghanistan “caught him by surprise”?
… he visited the Tree of Life synagogue after an attack on it?
… that he was going to end COVID?
… he was working “around the clock”?
… he had an opportunity to go to Annapolis and play football?
… that the 2nd Amendment banned weapons?
… the .223 and 9mm round were the most powerful rounds?
… told union members that since he took office, they have more money, more savings?
… that he was responsible for a planned Social Security cost of living increase?
… he would fire anyone on his staff that showed disrespect to anyone?
… there was no action on COVID19 “for months” under Trump?
… Officer Sicknick was murdered at the Capital?
… Republicans were defunding police, not Democrats?
… the economy was “in a tailspin” when he took office?
… the Capital riot was the worst incident of violence since the Civil War?
… the trillions of dollars Democrats were spending would cause inflation?
… Trump said white supremacists were “fine people”?
… there were Russian bounties?
… Democrat spending would not increase the deficit?
… no one making less that $400,000 would see tax increases?
… his infrastructure bill was “paid for”?
… the majority of illegal immigrant families are sent back?
… no family members of his or staff would get government jobs?
… the government was going to “buy American”?
… that he was a member of Ukraine and Polish secret service?
,,, that he didn’t know what Top Secret documents were illegally kept in his private office or how they got there?
… that inflation was bad when he took office?
… that the economy was in free-fall when he took office?
… that he was raised in a Puerto Rican neighborhood?
… that he was raised in a Polish neighborhood?
… that he was raised in an Italian neighborhood?
… that he went to synagogue before he went to mass?
… that the Suspicious Activity Reports do not show payments to the Biden family from China?
… that the Chinese spy balloon did not collect any military intelligence over the US?
… that the White House had no prior knowledge of the Mar a Lago raid?
… he was once a University of Pennsylvania professor?
… he said Hunter broke no laws?
… he said he reduced the national debt by $1.7 trillion?

Idiot Biden says he never had any knowledge of Hunter’s business dealings. On the laptop, however, there are emails, voicemails and photos proving that is a lie. If any of that has been altered or falsified, present your evidence NOW.

Crybaby. This is the same thing you did with O’Keefe’s videos, claiming they were “edited”. They weren’t. They were authentic. You just don’t have the guts to face up the reality of your despicable, decadent ideology.

If any part of it was “altered”, why hasn’t that been identified as falsified and prosecuted? That would be a crime; slander. It would also be an attack on the President of the United States and, as we have seen over and over, idiot Biden has no problem deploying the full force of the federal government against personal enemies. So, why hasn’t any of that taken place?

One reason: the evidence on the lap top is real, it’s authentic and it is devastating. They don’t want to acknowledge it and have it discussed. But, as much as there is there, it is but the tip of the iceberg; there is a HUGE amount of evidence coming forth of idiot Biden’s treachery and corruption.

Trump’s drunken drag-queen accomplice, Rudy Giuliani

Wait… what? What’s wrong with drag queens? Are you implying being a drag queen is BAD? That’s kind of transphobic, scooter. You want to lose your Leftist Mentally Ill Tranny Science Denier merit badge?

Idiot Biden committed the extortion, in order to protect his 50% of Hunter’s payoffs from Burisma. He admitted it on video. I’m sure you’ve seen it.

Why is the FBI illegally persecuting whistleblowers? I thought you leftists LIKE whistleblowers.

Forensic analysis

In March 2022, The Washington Post published the findings of two forensic information analysts it had retained to examine 217 gigabytes of data provided to the paper on a hard drive by Republican activist Jack Maxey, who represented that its contents came from the laptop. One of the analysts characterized the data as a “disaster” from a forensics standpoint. The analysts found that people other than Hunter Biden had repeatedly accessed and copied data for nearly three years; they also found evidence that people other than Hunter Biden had accessed and written files to the drive, both before and after the New York Post story.[2] In September 2020, someone created six new folders on the drive, including with the names “Biden Burism”, “Big Guy File”, “Salacious Pics Package” and “Hunter. Burisma Documents”. One of the analysts found evidence someone may have accessed the drive contents from a West Coast location days after The New York Post published their stories about the laptop.[2]

Given that and the highly questionable chain of custody, it seems to me that the hard drive was most likely altered to become the centerpiece of a disinformation operation.

Wikipedia? Really?

What data? What was changed? Who changed it? What was it originally and what was it changed to? Like your whining about O’Keefe’s How about someone other than a confirmed and committed member of the Ministry of Propaganda providing any such evidence.

Given that and the highly questionable chain of custody, it seems to me that the hard drive was most likely altered to become the centerpiece of a disinformation operation.

Oh, you mean the FBI? The ones who claimed it was “Russian disinformation”? Why hasn’t the FBI refuted the claims made by those who have examined the evidence? How could the Russians get access to the hard drive after the FBI or Giuliani had it? Don’t you ever get tired of repeatedly throwing this idiot shit against the wall and seeing if anyone with a brain will believe it sticks and looking like a stupid, lying moron that will believe any bullshit you are fed by liars?

Yeah, Wikipedia is part of the vast Deep State conspiracy against Donald Trump—as is any source that isn’t part of the whackadoodle social media network that propagates right-wing disinformation and crackpot conspiracy theory.

Anyone using Wikipedia as a source needs to have their head examined.

It’s not credible.

Blowing the Kakhovka dam shows how close Putin is to panic.

You’d think if he was losing he’d have some significant casualties by now.

Only tens of thousands compared to Ukraine’s Hundreds of Thousands?

Russia is clearly winning.

Russia has been winning the entire time.
What happened to the spring offensive? Only 15 days till summer.
Are we to expect a summer offensive?
Ukraine has suffered significant losses and it is questionable whether they can continue to fight this war.

Prigozhin has stated that 20,000 Russian Wagner troops died just in the Bakhmut campaign.

The Kremlin’s claim that only 6,000 Russians have died since the invasion began is ludicrous. Not even the brainwashed Russian population believes it.

Fake news Ukraine is losing meathead.

Meanwhile the country is learning that biden is a criminal.

His crimes are a magnitude of thousands compared to the made up stuff on Trump.

Russia continues to win this war against biden. When the dust settles biden will be 0-2.

With compete respect, I think it will be the American taxpayers that are 0-2. The Biden family is doing what the Biden family has always done.

Putin blowing the dam could be the equivalent of Saddam setting oil wells on fire before abandoning Kuwait. It leaves Crimea without its main supply of water.

If his next move is to sabotage the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant, we should fly in an SR-72 and take out the Kremlin with a tactical nuke. We’d be doing Russia a favor.

How that for crazy?

Last edited 9 months ago by Greg

The Russians have had full control of the dam for over a year.

You need to come to the realization that biden is losing his war against Putin and no matter what he does,
Putin is going to prevail.

Ukraine will never defeat Russia, never.

I think they’ll take back Crimea and push Russia back in the occupied territories. Russia will be stalemated, a cease-fire will be negotiated, and Ukraine will become part of NATO. The KGB midget miscalculated.

They’d need an army for that.

It matters not who blew up the dam. The dam has been blown up.

You might want to check in with High Command.

They said Russia did it.

Yeah
greg seems to not be aware of the losses the Ukraine has taken with KIA and WIA. The ranks are getting thinner by the minute.

Putin doesn’t get to allow or disallow a damn thing. He may not even be able to save his own worthless ass from the screwed up situation he created.

Putin will be lucky to avoid assassination.

Smokin more of hunters crack I see

I doubt it, but they probably have a certain bridge in mind. Take out that, and the Russian occupation of Crimea is doomed.

And then Putin uses a tactical nuke and ends with a Zelenskyy surrender in under 60 secords.

If he used a tactical nuke, we might just nuke him back. I think that possibility would enormously increase the odds of his assassination.

The only thing that prevents Putin from using nukes is uncertainty about what would come back at him. He hasn’t refrained because he thinks like Mr. Rogers.

This nuclear balance has been the unfortunate result of human stupidity pretty much my entire life. It is what it is.

We’re talking about how things are done in Russia, not the United States. Putin is on a lot of people’s Most Likely to be Assassinated list. No one knows that better than Putin does himself, because he has often employed that means of eliminating his political enemies.

Without a clear and unambiguous victory, Putin is a dead man. He’s not producing a clear and unambiguous victory. That was supposed to have happened a year ago.

He’s not winning. He’s delaying losing.

He has armed Russian opponents to his regime fighting him inside of Russia. Former Russian soldiers, gone over to the other side.

Yesterday, I enjoyed this:

June 5 (Reuters) – The Kremlin said a purported radio address by President Vladimir Putin heard on Monday on Russian stations in regions bordering Ukraine was fake and the result of a hack, Russian news agencies reported. The state-owned news agency RIA said a number of radio stations had carried the hoax address.

The Deep Fake newscast featured Putin, announcing that Russia was under attack.

His grip on Russia is beginning to slip.

Yep. For well over a year now. Consider the possibility that this is the only way to stop the military conquests of nuclear armed dictator. You maintain a situation that allows him to destroy himself.

I haven’t heard any better options from Biden’s critics.
Give the evil bastard whatever he wants isn’t actually an option for people who value freedom.

That’s certainly what your agency wants, but it’s not going their way, is it?

WE?

Who exactly is “we?”

If Putin used a tactical nuke in Ukraine, WE (as in the USA) would have ZERO grounds or duty to “nuke” him back.

He’s not in a war with the US, as you’ve said.

Remember?

He’s at war with NATO. He’s at war with the West. He’s at war with all democratic values, and the right of free people to choose their own destinies. He’s the head criminal of a criminal regime.

UKRAINE YIELDS TO INTERNATIONAL PRESSURE AND LAUNCHES ILL-FATED OFFENSIVE
comment image

After months of promising to strike a blow ostensibly to push Russia back to its original border Ukraine is on the March and, as expected, is suffering massive losses in men and materiel. And the losses are going to get worse. Russia already is claiming it killed almost 4,000 Ukrainian soldiers in a 48 hour period.

*3,715 troops* to be exact

// All in all during 3 days of fighting in all directions, the losses of the AFU amounted to *3,715 troops*, 52 tanks, 207 armored fighting vehicles, 134 motor vehicles, 5 aircraft, 2 helicopters, 48 pieces of field artillery, and 53 unmanned aerial vehicles. //

https://t.me/fred33flint/798&nbsp😉

The reasons for Ukraine’s impending failure are pretty simple.

First, Ukraine does not have the trained manpower to muster 300,000 combat ready troops required to seriously threaten the Russians. Second, the troops that comprise the assault brigades have received different training from different countries (e.g., the U.S., the U.K., France and Poland) and have not been trained to operate as an army on the move. Third, Ukraine lacks the tanks, mobile artillery and close air support from fixed and rotary winged aircraft required to sustain an offensive beyond a week. Fourth, Ukraine lacks a viable air defense system and cannot stop Russian aircraft from pounding relentlessly Ukrainian supply lines and storage depots.

The destruction of a major section of the Kakhova dam and ensuing flooding of southern Ukraine is keeping the pundits quite busy with endless speculation about who done it and what does it mean. I suggest you read Simplicius’ account, which is comprehensive and provides a great summary of the various theories about who benefits and who suffers from this disaster.

Personally, I think it was a Ukrainian operation. The following tweet makes the case succinctly.

comment image

We have proof of sorts that this is the long promised Ukrainian offensive courtesy of Russian General Shoigu. He made an unusual public appearance and described in detail what Russia is doing:

Ukraine’s inability to defeat Russia on the battlefield and the accompanying destruction of almost a billion dollars in recently donated Western military equipment is likely to provoke a political upheaval in Kiev. I think Zelensky’s days are numbered. He is on a path eerily similar to Adolf Hitler’s demise in the bunker below the Reichstag as Soviet troops closed in.

When the post-mortem is finally done on Ukraine I think we will learn that Russian intelligence out-classed anything that Ukraine was provided by its Western allies. It appears that no one in the West has any good sources inside the Russian military command. Russia, however, has significant sources inside the Ukrainian General Staff, military intelligence and NATO and knows Ukraine’s plans and order of battle. Like a good poker player, Russia is not tipping its hand and is bidding its time in deciding when and how to strike. Right now the Ukrainian troops trying to advance on Russian defensive lines are being torn to pieces. Stay tuned.

Putin is fighting a war of attrition, Ukraine is running out of fighting men and equipment. It is only a matter of time.

Most Americans believe that our own White House occupant is the head of a criminal regime.

That’s not going away anytime soon so perhaps you should shift your focus.

You really are avoiding the damning information on biden. Any topic except the thread.

Since the 1980s…

We’re still studying how media and entertainment was so easily radicalized by Leftist ideology.

Indeed, Wikipedia does not offer objective truth on many things, and their treatment of Trump is regime-friendly nonsense.

It’s a conspiracy theory to suggest Russia Colluded with Trump in 2016.

It’s also been debunked.

It’s definitely part of your propaganda network, since anything can be cited as fact without any verification. By the way, you forgot to answer my questions: What data? What was changed? Who changed it? What was it originally and what was it changed to?

Also, speaking of chain of custody, you never worry about chain of custody when ballots are concerned. Why is that?

 

Wow thats a conspiracy even I missed! Wiki is not reliable especially about bios for anyone.
Oh they took down the Hunter Biden Page that showed 10 thousand photos from the Addicts hard drive, for kiddie porn. Mostly of his Dead brothers daughter.
That is one sick sick sick family.
One may have shown him “partying” with one of Barrys daughters, or he stole one of her credit cards.
