The FBI does have in its possession a document that alleges President Joe Biden’s involvement in an international family pat-for-play scheme, Republican Rep. James Comer of Kentucky said in a statement on Wednesday afternoon.
The chair of the House Oversight Committee is investigating the Biden family over claims it profited from then-vice president Biden’s time in the Obama administration.
The committee previously connected numerous members of the Biden family to an alleged scheme to wash money from businesses in countries such as China and Ukraine, among others.
Hunter Biden was among those Comer and other House Republicans said benefited from the alleged scheme.
The investigation signaled there was a mystery Biden who was also paid.
According to a statement he released on Wednesday, Comer said FBI Director Christopher Wray committed to letting the committee view a document that shows Biden’s involvement.
Wray has dodged a House subpoena but did say lawmakers could come to see the document in person at the FBI headquarters, Comer said.
In his statement, Comer threatened to find Wray in criminal contempt of Congress if he does not produce the document in person.
“Today, FBI Director Wray confirmed the existence of the FD-1023 form alleging then-Vice President Biden engaged in a criminal bribery scheme with a foreign national,” Comer stated.
He added:
“However, Director Wray did not commit to producing the documents subpoenaed by the House Oversight Committee. While Director Wray — after a month of refusing to even acknowledge that the form existed – has offered to allow us to see the documents in person at FBI headquarters, we have been clear that anything short of producing these documents to the House Oversight Committee is not in compliance with the subpoena.”
The statement concluded, “If the FBI fails to hand over the FD-1023 form as required by the subpoena, the House Oversight Committee will begin contempt of Congress proceedings.”
🚨On my call with FBI Director Wray, the FBI finally confirmed the existence of the FD-1023 form alleging then-VP Joe Biden engaged in a criminal bribery scheme.
Anything short of producing these documents to @GOPoversight is not in compliance with my subpoena.

NBC News reported FD-1023 “describes an alleged criminal scheme involving then-Vice President Biden and a foreign national relating to the exchange of money for policy decisions.”
Wray has said he is prevented from sharing the document by Justice Department policies on protecting “confidential human source information.”
NBC News further reported Comer and GOP Sen. Chuck Grassley of Iowa each spoke to Wray via telephone on Wednesday afternoon before the statement was released.
A bureau representative told NBC News the FBI is “committed to cooperating with the [oversight committee] in good faith.”
F__k “confidential human source information.” Wray is not only in contempt of Congress, but by concealing information he is complicit in a treasonous crime at the highest level. If the document being withheld implicates Biden in “pay for play”, both Biden, Wray, Garland and anyone withholding evidence should be doing some serious time in prison.
Why is it when you talk about a Dumbcrat, you say alleged, but when it’s about a conservative or Trump you skip that word and basically condem them? You should be ashamed. Everyone knows Biden is a freaking criminal;!!!!!!
All you saying drag Wray and his evidence out or jail him is all bullshit, the FBI IS ABOVE THE LAW, don’t you all fu get it? Nothing can force him to do ANYTHING. So you better fu vote them out so Trump or whomever can defund and chop up THEIR worthless politically weaponised asses in the FBI, CIA or DOJ. This is the best we can hope for short of full on revolution which it may come to if left to fester .
What is he doing we need take him out of office. He is putting us risk.
Aha! Finally evidence !!! Take him and the Biden family down!
