Grassley’s recordings reveal bad news for Biden and worse for the FBI.

Grassley’s Bribe Recordings Revelation Is Bad News for Biden, But Even Worse for the FBI

Senator Chuck Grassley’s explosive revelation about audio recordings of President Joe Biden and his son Hunter is more than just another layer to the ever-growing story of alleged corruption in the White House. It blew the lid off FBI efforts to keep the American people from ever knowing about it.

These charges are going to reverberate into the 2024 election — and well beyond.

Grassley described FBI Director Christopher Wray’s attempts to keep a critical FBI document known as an FD-1023 form under wraps. Wray even had to be threatened with a contempt of Congress charge if he kept it up. The document strengthened already-strong suspicions that the president the FBI directly helped elect via its relationship with Big Tech executives is just as crooked as his notorious son.

The Allegations

According to Grassley, the foreign national who allegedly bribed Joe and Hunter Biden allegedly has audio recordings of his conversation with them — 17 such recordings. The foreign national possesses 15 audio recordings of phone calls between him and Hunter Biden. The foreign national possesses two audio recordings of phone calls between him and then-Vice President Joe Biden. These recordings were allegedly kept as a sort of insurance policy for the foreign national in case he got into a tight spot. The document also indicates that then-Vice President Joe Biden may have been involved in Burisma employing Hunter Biden.

The document stems from a tip the FBI received in 2020, the same year Trump was impeached over a phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in which he suggested the Bidens were engaged in corruption in Ukraine. In other words, according to Grassley, the FBI has been aware that the man who now holds the presidency of the United States may have been recorded engaging in a bribery scheme during his days as vice president.

Grassley also opened the possibility that Hunter Biden’s mysterious seat on the board of Ukrainian energy company Burisma might have been at least partly arranged by his father.

The Media’s Response

In a country where the establishment media went into convulsions over utterly spurious allegations linking Trump to Russian prostitutes, Grassley’s allegation should have been leading the evening news and filling the web pages of newspapers across the land. But how was it greeted by the establishment media?

As of late Tuesday morning, The Washington Post’s website was topped with news about Trump’s arraignment in Miami, a headline declaring that inflation is slowing but prices are rising, and, of course, the travails of transgender teenagers. The New York Times focused on Trump, inflation, and the war in Ukraine. The fact that the president had been accused on the Senate floor by a veteran senator who commands the respect of both parties of engaging in bribery didn’t merit a mention.

The Aftermath

It’s a replay of the Hunter Biden laptop scandal, in which the establishment media and the lords of social media combined to keep the American people ignorant of the revelations coming out of that laptop on the eve of the 2020 election. The FBI’s role in that travesty has already been at least partially revealed, thanks to the “Twitter Files.” Now, Grassley has revealed that the bureau is playing a similar role with its “talk to the hand” treatment of the Republican-controlled House Oversight Committee and its chairman, Kentucky Rep. James Comer.

It’s clear that Republicans on Capitol Hill have lost faith in the FBI, as have countless millions of Americans — and for very good reason. In a Monday social media post, Trump declared that he will make an investigation of the Biden family a top priority if he wins the presidency again. Every Republican candidate should vow to do the same. Justice demands it.

That means this is a fight that won’t be over in 2024. In fact, it’s likely just getting started.
