House Speaker Kevin McCarthy on Tuesday said Congress would go forward with contempt measures against FBI Director Christopher A. Wray if he failed to turn over a document that links President Biden to an alleged $5 million foreign bribery scheme when he was vice president.
The California Republican said that if Mr. Wray did not “follow through” and hand over the document Tuesday, “We will move contempt charges against Christopher Wray and the FBI. They are not above the law.”
The bureau responded by saying, “The FBI remains committed to cooperating with Congress’ oversight requests on this matter and others as we always have, and we continue to be in touch with members of Congress regarding this request. The FBI’s mission is to protect the American people. Releasing confidential source information could potentially jeopardize investigations and put lives at risk.
