FBI deputy director says Biden-era investigations being reexamined
Read Original Source
FBI deputy director Dan Bongino announced early Monday that three high-profile cases are being reexamined: The investigations into the 2021 D.C. pipe bombings, cocaine found in the White House in 2023 and the 2022 leak of the Supreme Court's Dobbs decision ending the federal right to an abortion. "Shortly after swearing in, the Director and I evaluated a number of cases of potential public corruption that, understandably, have garnered public interest," Bongino said in a statement.
