2 ex-FBI officials charged with making false statements about Hunter Biden’s laptop
Prosecutors say the ex-officials lied about their roles in the FBI’s Hunter Biden inquiry and helped shape public reporting before the election.
- The Justice Department charged two former FBI intelligence officials with making false statements to Congress regarding Hunter Biden's laptop, including Nikki Floris, who appeared in court today.
- Investigators examined whether FBI agents intentionally minimized corruption allegations involving the Bidens and suppressed evidence related to Hunter Biden's laptop during their inquiries.
- Filed 10 days before Election Day, the indictment drew immediate criticism from Floris's legal team, who called it "nonsense" and alleged the government brought charges years later on the eve of elections.
- Special Counsel David Weiss separately charged a government informant for providing false information alleging bribery in the Biden family, part of broader scrutiny over the FBI's handling of Biden-related investigations.
- Corruption accusations against the Bidens have persisted following IRS whistleblower claims that the FBI slow-walked inquiries; Hunter Biden was convicted of tax and gun charges before receiving a presidential pardon around Thanksgiving.
