A new investigation into a mysterious bribery allegation against President Joe Biden has been launched by the top Democrat on the House Oversight Committee. Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) has asked the FBI to make public its analysis of a tip submitted to the bureau in 2020 that a foreign national claimed to have paid Biden $5 million when he was vice president.
The allegation, which has been the subject of Republican investigations in Congress, relies on uncorroborated claims from a foreign national and a trusted FBI informant, an alleged suspicious financial transaction, an alleged surreptitious recording and numerous unanswered questions.
President Joe Biden has denied any wrongdoing and the Justice Department has said nothing publicly about the allegation. However, former President Donald Trump has suggested that the Justice Department had indicted him as a distraction from the “real crime” — the “Biden bribery scheme.”
Raskin believes that the public deserves to know the truth about the allegation and has asked the FBI to make its analysis public. He believes that the FBI should be transparent and accountable to the public and that any investigation into the allegation should be conducted in a fair and impartial manner.
The investigation into the allegation is ongoing and it remains to be seen whether the FBI will make its analysis public. In the meantime, the public can only speculate as to the truth behind the allegation and wait for the outcome of the investigation.
