House Oversight Committee members will view a subpoenaed document relating to the committee’s investigation into President Joe Biden and his family on Thursday.
Committee members will begin reviewing the FBI’s FD-1023 form on the alleged Biden criminal scheme between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. Thursday in a secure area, a committee spokesperson told the Washington Examiner.

The document, which almost landed FBI Director Christopher Wray in contempt of Congress, will also be available next week for members who are not available on Thursday.
Wray agreed to let committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) and ranking member Jamie Raskin (D-MD) view the document in a secure room used for viewing classified information where technology is not permitted. The pair will also receive a briefing from the FBI on Monday, to which both came out of the meeting with opposing views.
Comer said that the FBI briefing proved that the committee’s investigation into alleged wrongdoing by the Bidens was on to something and must be pursued further, and Raskin said that it proved there was no need for further inquiry.
On Wednesday, Comer released the text of a resolution holding Wray in contempt of Congress, despite the FBI insisting that it was being fully cooperative with the House committee’s investigation.

However, the FBI agreed late Wednesday to provide the FD-1023 form to the committee, and the Oversight meeting to discuss holding Wray in contempt of Congress has been taken off the docket. It was slotted for 9 am. on Thursday.
Comer and House Republicans have set their sights on Biden and his family since they took the House majority after the midterm elections. Comer suggested on Monday that the FBI briefing showed patterns that suggested money laundering on Biden’s part.
