House Oversight Committee chair James "Gomer" Comer (Sedition-KY) was supposed to be the lead in the Republican / Shooters / Sedition party's attack on the Biden family. He promised the disclosure of a "secret" FBI report after badgering the FBI for the document and issuing a subpoena for it. Much like the Benghazi Benghazi BENGHAZI ! farce in 2015 meant to bring Hillary Clinton's poll numbers down, Comer's quest has apparently produced bupkis:
"The FBI and Justice Department under then-Attorney General William P. Barr reviewed allegations from a confidential informant about Joe Biden and his family, and they determined there were no grounds for further investigative steps, according to Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) and other people familiar with the investigation.
Raskin revealed the information about the investigation after he and House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) on Monday reviewed a document containing details of the allegation. That document has been at the center of a weeks-long back and forth between the FBI and Comer, who last month sought to force the agency to produce the document via a subpoena." (our emphasis)
What makes this especially piquant is that the investigation was conducted under the auspices of the Trump Justice Department and then Attorney General Bill "Low" Barr:
"According to people familiar with the investigation who spoke on the condition of anonymity to detail sensitive information, the allegation in the document came to the FBI through the Pittsburgh field office, where Barr had created a channel for allegations involving Ukraine. That included materials Rudy Giuliani — who was then President Donald Trump’s personal attorney — had gathered from Ukrainian sources claiming to have damaging information about Biden and his family.
The allegation contained in the document was reviewed by the FBI at the time and was found to not be supported by facts, and the investigation was subsequently dropped with the Trump Justice Department’s sign-off, according to the people familiar with the investigation." (our emphasis)
It's noteworthy that some of the materials in question were gathered / concocted by the Malignant Loser's corrupt, hair dye-leaking loon and predator consigliere Rudy "Toot Toot" Giuliani, whose intrigue in Ukraine was directly responsible for the charges against the Malignant Loser in his first impeachment. However, if you think this will stop Comer from chasing Biden windmills, you'd be mistaken:
"After the two lawmakers reviewed the document in a secure area on Capitol Hill on Monday, Comer announced that House Republicans would still pursue holding FBI Director Christopher A. Wray in contempt of Congress."
