House Republicans are once again facing hurdles in their ongoing investigation into the Biden family's business dealings. The Federal Bureau of Investigation did not hand over a subpoenaed document that details allegations of a bribery scheme involving then-Vice President Joe Biden. The FD-1023 document reportedly contained information about a pay-to-play scheme, with criminal implications. A whistleblower at the agency informed Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, about the unverified allegations. However, the FBI refused to provide it during a private meeting held on Monday with the House Oversight and Accountability Committee.

The Oversight Committee's chair, Rep. James Comer, R-Ky., issued the subpoena to the FBI for the document, which the agency missed providing by a May 10 deadline. Comer informed the press that he may work with Senate Republicans to hold the FBI's budget "hostage" until the document is submitted. He asserted that unless the FBI either improved its leadership or provided the requested document, he would not let it off the hook for failing to supply it in time.

Various Republican members in Congress are putting their weight behind the initiative, which puts the FBI in a difficult spot. If they want to keep receiving their budgetary allocation, the document must be submitted. Nonetheless, the FBI declined to provide it, citing concerns over its validity. Although House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., disclosed that he spoke with FBI Director Christopher Wray on Friday, he explained that the agency still hasn't given up the document.
