The deputy director of the FBI said that the office would pay resources in cases such as the flight from the Supreme Court and cocaine to the White House
The deputy director of the FBI, Dan Bongino, said on Monday that his agency would revive or devote more resources to several surveys on unrelated cases of the Biden administration which “aroused public interests” and have long lit allegations of corruption by the allies and supporters of President Donald Trump.
Bongino identified three cases which, according to him, indicated “potential public corruption”, including an investigation into a pair of pipe bombs which were found near the seat of the Democratic and Republican Party on January 6, 2021 and the discovery of a bag of cocaine in the White House in 2023.
A third case that Bongino declared would also be revised was the 2022 flight of the decision of the unpublished Supreme Court ending the federal protections for the rights to abortion. This probe was closed after an investigation of about eight months which included a forensic analysis but could not identify a responsible person.
“We have made the decision to reopen or push additional resources and investigative attention, to these cases,” wrote Bongino A post on x.
“I receive briefs requested on these cases every week and we are progressing,” added Bongino.
The new attention to the cases comes when the office faces pressures to investigate the allegations according to which the allies of Trump, including Bongino himself, promoted: that the Biden administration and the actors of “deep state” armed the Ministry of Justice.
Before the oath earlier this year, Bongino accused The FBI to lie about not knowing the identity of the Bombardier in Pipe, saying that the agency “simply does not want us to tell us because it was an inner work”.
The FBI in January published a video related to pipe bombs, which said they represent a masked suspect planting bombs outside the republican siege and democrat of Washington during the day before the riot of the Capitol.
Bongino also questioned the discovery of the cocaine bag discovered in the White House in July 2023, suggesting shortly after the incident that cocaine belonged to a family member Biden. He wrote then on x“There is absolutely no chance that someone other than a family member brought this cocaine inside the White House complex.”
The secret services briefly investigated the incident and put an end to his probe after the officials said that he had not detected DNA fingerprints or usable digitals and that the security images had not produced tracks beyond an overly in-depth list of 500 staff and visitors.
