The FBI directly sought to cover up certain findings from the US Justice Department’s multi-year investigation into Hunter Biden.

Meanwhile, the FBI’s top lawyer instructed a former supervisory agent to refuse to answer some of the questions of Congress members in his testimony.

Earlier this week, the Republican-led House Oversight Committee confirmed that during his hearing, an unnamed former FBI supervisory agent “confirmed key portions” of what two IRS whistleblowers revealed about the Hunter Biden probe.

Namely, Joe Biden’s Justice Department intervened and shielded Hunter from severe charges, Fox News reports. Yet, a new leak now shows the FBI made new efforts to cover up as much as possible from the investigation.

Its general counsel, Jason Jones, sent the former agent a letter, telling the latter he was “expected” not to give answers to some questions during the House Oversight Committee hearing.

The letter exposed by the New York Post was sent to the former supervisory agent the night before his congressional testimony.

In it, Jones tells him the agency “expects that [he] will decline” to answer those questions involving “non-public information likely covered” by executive privilege or some other “confidentiality interests.”

The FBI lawyer also told the former operative to redirect any such inconvenient questions by members of Congress to the Bureau’s Congressional Affairs Office.

Jones hinted the House Oversight Committee was looking for answers regarding “certain events” that occurred in December 2020 and were part of “this investigation.”

Last week, FBI chief Christopher Wray claimed the agency “absolutely” wasn’t protecting the Bidens.

Well, after the former agent’s testimony, Rep. James Comer (R-KY) declared the Justice Department’s “efforts” in “covering up for the Bidens” exposed the existence of a two-tier justice system.

He vowed the GOP would go as far as needed to find the answers about the Bidens; so, much bigger revelations could be in the making.
