While most of the world seems to be consumed with the news of the war abroad between Israel and Hamas, or the (finally) decisive decision in the House here at home, others continue to pursue Joe Biden and the alleged criminal activities of the President and the first family. …

“Based on the information provided to my office over a period of years by multiple credible whistleblowers, there appears to be an effort within the Justice Department and FBI to shut down investigative activity relating to the Biden family,” Grassley wrote to Garland and Wray. “Such decisions point to significant political bias infecting the decision-making of not only the Attorney General and FBI Director, but also line agents and prosecutors.”

He added: “Our Republic cannot survive such a political infection and you have an obligation to this country to clear the air.”

[Without control of the Senate, there’s only so much that Grassley can do to push this. Now that the House GOP has pulled its collective head out of its rear, perhaps they can get back to business. I’m skeptical about Galardi’s optimism on this until that pays dividends in the House. — Ed]
