Comer sees bombshell while Raskin sees nothing.
"Given the severity and complexity of the allegations contained within this record, Congress must investigate further," Comer continued. "The investigation is not dead. This is only the beginning."

Link to Qoute: Comer to hold FBI Director Wray in contempt of Congress after viewing Biden document alleging criminal scheme | Fox News


It appears that both the Chairman and the House Oversite Committee Ranking member have just seen an FBI-generated FD-1023 form that allegedly describes a bribery scheme involving Joe Biden. As I predicted only days ago, both men would interpret what they read in total contradiction. This was very predictable. Even when we had an IG report, the Mueller Report and the Durham report submitted to the general public we had ideologues disagreeing about what the documents actually said. Imagine having to report what one reads in a secure SCIF?  Then to have the added problem of having the only other person reading it being a far-left ideologue?

Comer said FBI officials confirmed Monday that the unclassified FBI generated record "has not been disproven and is currently being used in an ongoing investigation by a confidential human source who provided information about the vice president by being involved in a criminal bribery scheme is a trusted, highly credible informant who has been used by the FBI for over ten years and has been paid over 6 figures."

Raskin completely contradicted that statement claiming that the bureau never elevated the information to an investigation.

Raskin is not only contradicting Comer, but apparently even the FBI.

Here is my question for our readers:

If Raskin is in any way right, why is the FBI clinging to this document for dear life?


BTW:

Comer will still stand by his promise to hold Wray in contempt:

"At the briefing, the FBI again refused to hand over the unclassified record to the custody of the House Oversight Committee," Comer said. "And we will now initiate contempt of Congress hearings this Thursday."

Evidently this information was considered more "Russian disinformation." / S

Raskin is a constitutional scholar. Comer is a bumpkin with the intelligence of a potted plant. Not a fair fight.

If the FBI has not disproven the document from 2020 and it is in the middle of an investigation, and the information comes from a source that the FBI had shown & believed to be credible from previous interactions then this is definitely something that should be investigated completely.  Congress has a duty to do so.  

But name calling in an attempt to defend a side is a fools errand.

The FBI has had this document for 3 years and "nothing". Its not because the FBI is "woke', its because this document was given to them by Rudy Giuliani, the worst investigator in history. (See his remarks about election fraud).

You're right.  They didn't investigate any part of it.  Because that would expose the corruption of Geriatric Joe and his family "business".

Its not because the FBI is "woke', its because this document was given to them by Rudy Giuliani, the worst investigator in history. (See his remarks about election fraud). 

So what you are saying is they didn't investigate it because they are biased.

No, I'm saying they investigated it and found it unpersuasive. 

This document was also part of a William Barr instigated investigation by a federal prosecutor in Pittsburgh. Again, nothing found.

This isn't the Barr investigation now is it.  This is a whole different investigation.  If it were so "unpersuasive" then explain why Wray tried to keep it hidden?

Doesn't prove that it's valid or a lie in either direction now, does it.  The supposed source for the information is an informant that the FBI has used for years.  As this information seems to come from a credible source, wouldn't you agree that it should be investigated?  

If the information is supposed to be garbage since it came from a trove of information provided by Giuliani, then why is the FBI fighting so hard to not release the document?  Seems if they believe it's garbage than putting it out there would only harm Giuliani, wouldn't it?  Why the big fight?

Don't you want to know the truth?

Why should they give a document to a bullshit committee? 

You seem to be thinking that this committee is some sort of paragon of integrity. James Comer is a clown. Do you think Wray doesnt know that? 

He showed them the document and now Comer is whining because Wray took it back to the FBI with him.

Why should they give a document to a bullshit committee? 

This is a committee that was formed back in 1927 and as House majority has changed several times over the years it stands to reason that leadership of this committee has also changed several times over the years.  What is your evidence that this is a bullshit committee outside of your own partisan opinion?  And ST has it right, you do sound an awful lot like Trump.

James Comer is a clown. Do you think Wray doesnt know that? 

Your opinion only.  What Wray knows or doesn't know isn't the point, the point is that he is supposed to be a public servant who is part of the Executive branch but Congress does hold oversight here.

He showed them the document and now Comer is whining because Wray took it back to the FBI with him. 

If the subpoena said to hand over the documents than Wray is indeed not in compliance and should be subject to Contempt of Congress charges.

Simple question, would  you feel the same way and so vigorously defend the FBI if the document in question outlined potential crimes by Trump?  I think not.

Obama was supposedly a Constitutional scholar- yet managed to violate it repeatedly during his time in office. 

How many times was Raskin proven wrong during the Trump investigations?

Raskin is no better than bobble head boy Schiff.

Raskin does have rampant TDS; and that all important D behind his name. Which are the only reasons you like him.

Yeah, we guess John.  Long as ya got the "D", you're part of the extremely selective and highly intelligent world order that is in the process of totally futching up the U.S.

Potted plants live longer and produce more.  Let's watch who comes out the winner this time - the living plant or the dead reader.

House Republican Report Finds No Evidence of Wrongdoing by President Biden

After months of investigation and many public accusations of corruption against Mr. Biden and his family, the first report of the premier House G.O.P. inquiry showed no proof of such misconduct.

Somebody has 'kompromat' on Comer.  Or-----------see if he has any 'secret' bank accounts.

House Oversight Chairman James Comer on Monday said he will move ahead this week with efforts to hold   FBI Director Christopher Wray   in contempt, even after the bureau allowed top members of the committee to view   an internal law enforcement document.

.

“This is yet another fact-free stunt staged by Chairman Comer not to conduct legitimate oversight, but to spread thin innuendo to try to damage the President politically and get himself media attention,” said Ian Sams, White House spokesman for oversight and investigations.

Florida Republican Rep. Anna Paulina Luna on Monday indicated that the FBI worries that an informant who provided the bureau with information related to an alleged bribery scheme in which Joe Biden took part while Vice President may be killed should his identity become public knowledge.




But, but the left says the informant was Rudy Giuliani and he's a "dirty-birdie."

So what happened here? Did Comer hold a vote on Wray in contempt of Congress last week? I haven't heard anything in my newsfeed...
