House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer says his panel will start proceedings to hold FBI Director Christopher Wray in contempt of Congress.

Raskin said Monday that the FBI team provided context to the document, saying that former Attorney General William Barr named Scott Brady, then the U.S. Attorney for Western Pennsylvania, to look into allegations from Rudy Giuliani. Raskin said that investigation has ended.

"So, if there’s a complaint, the complaint is with Attorney General William Barr, the Trump Justice Department and the team that the Trump administration appointed to look into it," Raskin said. The FBI and Brady reviewed the allegation when it was made in 2020 as well as other information about Biden’s son Hunter Biden’s dealings in Ukraine, a senior law enforcement official said Friday. The bribery allegation, however, was not substantiated, according to the official.the investigations, arguing the probes are politically motivated and designed to hurt Biden’s re-election chances.
