House Republicans are now following through on last week’s threat, moving to hold the FBI’s director in contempt.

From Daily Mail. House Republicans are officially starting contempt of Congress charges against FBI Director Chris Wray for failing to turn over Biden ‘bribery’ document they claim shows then-Vice President Joe Biden was involved in a $5 million ‘criminal’ scheme with a foreign national.

The escalation comes after the Republican and Democratic leaders of the House Oversight Committee were granted access by the FBI Monday to view the FD-1023 form in a secure facility within the Capitol. The document apparently details an ‘arrangement’ for an exchange of money for policy decisions.

The Republicans issued a subpoena for the FD-1023 form last month and FBI Director Chris Wray was given a hard deadline of May 30 to hand over the unclassified document, which he did not comply with.

After reviewing the document Monday, Comer told reporters the accusations contained in the form ‘suggests a pattern of bribery’ consistent with findings the committee has put out publicly. …

In early May, Republicans released a report digging in on over $10 million received by Biden family members from foreign actors, including previously undisclosed $1 million in Romanian-linked payments, and a ‘web’ of 20 companies created while President Joe Biden was vice president and pushing anti-corruption efforts abroad. …

The ‘confidential human source’ is a ‘trusted, highly credible informant’ who has been used by the FBI for over 10 years and has been paid over six figures, continued Comer.

The chairman added that contempt proceedings will begin this Thursday.

‘At the briefing, the FBI again refused to hand over the unclassified record to the custody of the House Oversight Committee, and we will now initiate contempt of Congress hearings this Thursday.’

Last week, Comer and Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, spoke with Wray by phone and the FBI director offered to let them and Ranking Member Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md., view the documents at the FBI headquarters in an attempt to stave off the contempt threat.

The FBI confirmed to DailyMail.com last week that it would allow committee leadership to view the document. …

Comer also informed Wray that he was also narrowing the breadth of the subpoena for the document by providing two additional terms that may be referenced in the record: ‘June 30, 2020’ and ‘five million.’ …

Last week, House Speaker Kevin McCarthy backed up Comer’s contempt threat — saying he is ‘prepared’ to move forward with the charge.

‘We have jurisdiction over the FBI, which they seem to act like we do not,’ said McCarthy.

The FBI’s latest stonewalling also comes after a second IRS whistleblower came forward, claiming he was sidelined from the Hunter Biden probe when he spoke up about the president’s son getting preferential treatment. …

There can be only one reason why the FBI think they can spurn a subpoena by the House Oversight committee….. The FBI must be believing that they are being protected from exposure by a group that they regard as more powerful than the House of Representatives of the USA.

Abba, go deeper still. Remove all evil and injustices from your people and from our nation. We humble ourselves and pray and return from our own wicked ways. Let your justice roll on like a river, and righteousness like a never-failing stream. Awaken us, let us be salt and light to those around us. Bring glory to your name. In Jesus name, Amen.

Wisdom calls and lifts up her voice: The fear of the Lord is to hate evil; pride and arrogance and the evil way and the perverted mouth I hate. Counsel is mine and sound wisdom; I am understanding, power is mine. By me kings reign, and rulers decree justice. By me princes rule, and nobles, all who judge rightly.
Father, may the spirit of wisdom and understanding along with humility fall upon the director of the FBI and his department. May the spirit of wisdom and understanding fall upon those investigating this matter.
Father, protect the documents; reveal the information; cleanse the system; protect the whistleblowers and those investigating. Amen.
