Grassley earlier Thursday told Fox News host Bill Hemmer, “We don’t care whether the allegations against Vice President Biden are true or not.”<\/p>\n
The senator said lawmakers are only responsible for making sure the FBI does its job properly and won’t characterize what the document said when pressed by Hemmer.<\/p>\n
The White House shared Grassley’s comments<\/a>, which also included the senator saying the documents contain “allegations.” Grassley has said in previous interviews that Republicans were unsure whether the allegations against Biden were true and has not provided other details.<\/p>\n “By the admission of congressional Republicans themselves, this is clearly not a truth-finding or fact-finding exercise,” White House oversight and investigations spokesman Ian Sams said in a statement. <\/p>\n \t\tChinese Americans fight bans on buying property Dear New York pond swan dead, eaten; 3 teenagers accused of his death\t<\/p>\n “Instead, they are simply performing sadistic political stunts to push thin innuendo and spread innuendo to attack the president and get booked on Fox News,” he said.<\/p>\n Grassley and Comer demanded the document from the FBI last month, saying it describes an unverified and unspecified “alleged criminal plan” involving an alien and Biden when he was vice president.
