Rep. DarrellIssa requested the CIA investigate findings of current employees of the spy agency '[advancing] partisan political interests' of the Biden campaign in the lead-up to the 2020 election.
Ting Shen-Pool/Getty ImagesCongressman Darrell Issa sent a letter Wednesday to the Central Intelligence Agency Inspector General to request the agency investigate findings by the Judiciary Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government, displaying current employees of the spy agency “[advancing] partisan political interests” of the Biden campaign in the lead-up to the 2020 election.
As you know, the Hatch Act requires a clear dichotomy between the constitutional and statutory duties of federal officials and any political or campaign-related activities in which they engage. Federal law detailed under 5 U.S.C. § 7323 further restricts employees within federal law enforcement and national security agencies, including the Central Intelligence Agency.
Issa told Breitbart News that he requested an IG investigation to create separation with the administration in investigating a matter that has an obvious conflict of interest, saying, “No one is buying that the Biden Administration can credibly and transparently investigate itself.”
