Sen. Chuck Grassley has accused the FBI of trying to keep quiet information provided by 40 human sources about possible Biden family wrongdoing.

In the latest bombshell “weaponization” allegation against federal agencies, Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) said he’d obtained whistleblower information that the FBI gathered intelligence from over 40 human sources about possible wrongdoing by members of the Biden family, but then its Washington office tried to bury it.

The FBI received information from a network of over 40 confidential sources who provided “criminal information” about President Joe Biden, his brother James Biden, and his son Hunter Biden, Mr. Grassley wrote in an Oct. 24 letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland and FBI Director Christopher Wray.

Mr. Grassley said that “multiple credible whistleblowers” told him that the Justice Department (DOJ) and the FBI both tried to “shut down investigative activity relating to the Biden family,” according to the letter, which was seen by The Epoch Times.

Some of the alleged efforts to downplay or bury investigative leads into the Biden family were taken on the pretext that they were “foreign disinformation,” the senator wrote.

In particular, Mr. Grassley said he was told that an FBI task force within the Washington Field Office tried to and, in some cases, succeeded in suppressing the information from the confidential human sources by falsely discrediting it as foreign disinformation.

President Joe Biden has denied any wrongdoing or involvement in his family’s business affairs.

The Epoch Times has reached out to the FBI and DOJ with a request for comment, with the FBI confirming receipt of Mr. Grassley’s letter but declining comment.

Negative Hunter Biden Info ‘Improperly’ Discredited

Some of the information provided by confidential human sources, which were managed by different FBI field offices, was deemed to be disinformation by FBI Supervisory Intelligence Analyst Brian Auten, per the letter.

Mr. Auten’s report was used by ”an FBI HQ team to improperly discredit negative Hunter Biden information as disinformation and caused investigative activity to cease,” according to Mr. Grassley.

“The precise basis for how the FBI HQ team selected the specific information for inclusion in Auten’s assessment is unknown, but the focus of the FBI HQ team’s attention involved derogatory information about Hunter Biden and Joe Biden,” Mr. Grassley wrote.
