U.S. Sen. Chuck Grassley publicly released an internal FBI document Thursday containing unconfirmed allegations that President Joe Biden and his son Hunter Biden participated in an alleged bribery scheme — a disclosure the FBI said “unnecessarily risks the safety of a confidential source.”
The redacted document outlines a conversation the FBI had with a confidential source who alleged the CEO of Burisma, a Ukrainian energy company, paid a $10 million bribe to the Bidens.
It is at the center of the U.S. House Oversight Committee’s investigation, led by Republican Chair Jim Comer of Kentucky into Biden’s and his family’s business dealings.
“For the better part of a year, I’ve been pushing the Justice Department and FBI to provide details on its handling of very significant allegations from a trusted FBI informant implicating then-Vice President Biden in a criminal bribery scheme,” Grassley said in a statement.
