resident Biden on Thursday called Republican assertions that FBI notes point to a bribery scheme benefitting him or his family Biden “malarkey.” It was the first time the President had publicly responded to efforts by Rep. James Comer, a Kentucky Republican and chairman of the House Oversight Committee, to release an FBI document of unsubstantiated allegations based on second-hand information from a confidential informant in Ukraine.
House Republicans have latched onto the existence of FBI notes, called an FD-1023 form, saying they point to a broader effort by foreign governments to influence U.S. policy whenwas Vice President. The Justice Department under then-Attorney General Bill Barr investigated the allegation in 2020, found no evidence to back them up, and closed the inquiry, according to the top Democrat on the committee, Rep. Jamie Raskin of Maryland, who was briefed with Comer by the FBI.
The FBI said that making the notes public would endanger the human source who gave the bureau the information.
