The House Judiciary Committee has been trying to get answers for a while on many cases involving actions by the Biden FBI.
They previously subpoenaed Biden FBI for documents in multiple cases and have now subpoenaed the new Bureau, headed up by Director Kash Patel.
The new team responded to the subpoena a week before the deadline given to them by the Committee.
An assistant director from the FBI, mentioned in a letter obtained by the Washington Examiner, informed a Republican-led committee about a batch of documents. These documents are linked to FBI investigations involving threats to school administrators, the discovery of pipe bombs near the Capitol on January 6, 2021, and the alleged connections of violent extremists to a certain faction within Catholicism. They also contain information regarding the FBI’s interactions with social media companies regarding potential foreign interference in the 2020 election.
The contents of these documents are expected to be intriguing, especially concerning the FBI’s actions in response to the pipe bomber and their alleged focus on targeting parents and Catholics. Given the significant concerns raised about governmental conduct in these cases, there is potential for significant revelations within the documents.
In correspondence to Committee Chair Jim Jordan (R-OH), FBI Assistant Director Marshall Yates stated that the release of these documents aims to rebuild trust through transparency. Yates hinted at providing additional information in the future. Committee spokesperson Russell Dye expressed gratitude and mentioned that further updates would be forthcoming. It is anticipated that the Committee will receive more cooperation from Patel compared to the previous reception from Christopher Wray. The change in personnel within the FBI is hoped to bring about improvements in operations.
This comes following a big hullabaloo over the Epstein documents when Attorney General Pam Bondi said she would be releasing the files. Then what they released turned out to be old stuff that had already been released. She said she found out that she hadn’t been provided all the documents by the NY FBI office. It is now believed that the NY FBI field office has turned over all the documents to the Department of Justice in that matter and they are being combed through. Bondi described it on March 3 as a “truckload” of information being turned over. She said they would go through everything as fast as they could, taking care to protect the names of the victims.
