Sen. Grassley: Audio recordings exist of Joe and Hunter Biden talking over bribery specifics

Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) unveiled shocking allegations involving President Joe Biden and his son Hunter today.

Grassley stated that an FBI informant claims to possess over a dozen audio recordings of conversations related to an alleged $5 million bribery scheme with Ukraine.

According to Grassley, the FBI informant’s claims were documented in an “FD-1023” file currently in the possession of the FBI.

The file has been reviewed by members of the House Oversight Committee with redactions. It makes references to the audio recordings. Grassley argued that the information contained in the file should be made public, urging transparency and accountability in the face of such serious allegations.

Working closely with Oversight Chairman James Comer (R-KY), Grassley emphasized that efforts were underway to uncover further information related to the alleged bribery scheme.

Comer, after threatening to hold the head of the FBI in contempt of Congress, has exercised subpoena power to compel the FBI to disclose additional details regarding the allegations.

“The 1023 produced to that House committee redacted reference that the foreign national who allegedly bribed Joe and Hunter Biden allegedly has audio recordings of his conversation with them. Seventeen such recordings,” Grassley said in a speech on the Senate floor. He said he has personally seen the document with fewer redactions than what oversight panel members were given.

“According to the 1023, the foreign national possesses 15 audio recordings of phone calls between him and Hunter Biden,” Grassley said. “According to the 1023, the foreign national possesses two audio recordings of phone calls between him and then-vice president Joe Biden. These recordings were allegedly kept as a sort of insurance policy for the foreign national in case he got into a tight spot. The 1023 also indicates that then-Vice President Joe Biden may have been involved in Burisma employing Hunter Biden.”

According to the Society of Former Special Agents of the Federal Bureau of Investigations, “FD-1023 is the form our special agents use to record raw, unverified reporting from confidential human sources (CHSs). FD-1023s merely document that information; they do not reflect the conclusions of investigators based on a fuller context or understanding. Recording this information does not validate it, establish its credibility, or weigh it against other information known or developed by the FBI in our investigations.” More explanation of this incident at this link.

This latest revelation follows a series of controversies and scandals surrounding the Biden family, particularly related to their business dealings overseas. The allegations of a bribery scheme involving Ukraine was suppressed earlier by the previous management of Twitter, the social media company.
