Former congressional investigator says there's no excuse for FBI not to give Biden memo to Congress

Former assistant Secretary of State Bobby Charles says that there is no excuse for the FBI not to produce the Biden probe memo to Congress. 

"There's no excuse, in my view, for a director of the FBI not to produce a document that Congress has a constitutional and statutory right to, at a time when it is material to a potential criminal investigation of an administration and of a president and a former vice president," Charles said on the Wednesday edition of the "Just the News, No Noise" TV show. 

The FBI formally refused earlier this week to turn over to Congress an investigative memo alleging a bribery scheme involving President Joe Biden.

This prompted the chairman of the House Oversight Committee, James Comer (R-Ky.), to begin proceedings to hold Director Christopher Wray in contempt.

"This is a subpoena that the Congress in its oversight capacity and legislating capacity has every right to see," Charles stated. 

"I think in the courts--and I was a Ninth Circuit US Court of Appeals clerk--I think they will be vindicated. I think Congress, if they seek the enforcement of this subpoena, will be vindicated," he continued.
