Committee chairman James Comer (R., Ky.) announced Tuesday that he would hold Wray in contempt, saying that Wray refused to turn over documents connecting Biden to a “bribery scheme.” In response, the FBI said it had “identified additional information that we are prepared to offer the committee as an extraordinary accommodation,” according to a letter obtained by Politico.

[As Wilford Brimley once observed in Absence of Malice, “Wonderful thing, subpoenas.” Same holds for contempt citations, it seems. One has to wonder, though, why Wray just doesn’t simply turn over the document Comer seeks. Must be pretty doggone interesting, huh? — Ed]
