According to Senator Chuck Grassley, the FBI is said to have maintained more than forty confidential human sources on criminal matters involving the Biden family.
In a letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland, Grassley said the sources were managed by several FBI field offices and provided the bureau with details of possible crimes by Hunter, James and President Joe Biden.
According to the letter seen by DailyMail.com, Grassley learned that an FBI task force within the Washington Field Office successfully attempted and succeeded in shutting down reporting from those sources by falsely discrediting the information.
Grassley wrote in his letter: “Allegations from multiple Department of Justice whistleblowers indicate that there is and has been an attempt among certain officials at the Department of Justice and the FBI to unlawfully exhaust the entire investigative activities of the Biden family and to stop.’
The senator also said that in at least one case, a source and its information had been reviewed by numerous U.S. law firms, which found “no hits” for Russian sources.

Grassley continued, “Based on the information provided to my office by multiple credible whistleblowers over a number of years, there appears to be an effort within the Department of Justice and the FBI to shut down investigative activities related to the Biden family.
“Such decisions indicate significant political bias that influences the decision-making not only of the Attorney General and FBI Director, but also of line agents and prosecutors.
“Our Republic cannot survive such a political infection and you have an obligation to this country to clear the air.”
Grassley also addressed whistleblower allegations in 2020 about Hunter Biden’s “criminal financial and related activities” that were shut down based on “false claims” that it was foreign disinformation.
One critical point Grassley makes in his letter concerns a human source who alleged bribery between then-Vice President Joe Biden, Hunter Biden and Burisma Holdings founder and CEO Mykola Zlochevsky.
The source told the agency that the father and son had “forced” Zlochevsky to pay them millions of dollars in exchange for their help in firing the Ukrainian prosecutor investigating Burisma, Viktor Shokin.
The White House has strongly denied these allegations, despite Shokin publicly saying the two played a role in his firing.
In his letter, Grassley revealed that the FBI Washington Field Office closed a $205 billion Kleptocracy case against Zlochevsky in December 2019.
The case was originally opened in January 2016 by a Foreign Corrupt Practices Act Squad based in the same office, which also includes agents from FBI Headquarters.
