EXCLUSIVE: House Republicans are calling on the FBI to reveal whether it was in possession of a laptop that reportedly contained emails by Hunter Biden during the impeachment of President Trump – and claiming the agency committed a “gross error in judgement” if it did not inform the White House.

 

“If the FBI was, in fact, in possession of this evidence and failed to alert the White House to its existence that would have given even more weight to the president’s legal defense, this was a gross error in judgement and a severe violation of trust,” the letter says.

 

The letter was signed by 19 House Republicans, including Reps. Andy Biggs, R-Ariz.; Louie Gohmert, R-Texas; Debbie Lesko, R-Ariz.; and Jody Hice, R-Ga.

 

“A large portion of the president’s legal defense case revolved around strong evidence that former Vice President Biden’s son Hunter was peddling his influence to his father to land lucrative jobs overseas that he might not have otherwise been qualified for,” the letter says.

 

The lawmakers ask whether the FBI was in possession of the laptop and drive as documented in the Post, whether it took steps to authenticate the drive and the data, and if anyone at the FBI briefed officials at the Department of Justice or White House after December.

Multnomah County District Attorney Mike Schmidt has refused to prosecute more than half of the protest-related cases referred to his office by law enforcement officials in Portland, Oregon. That’s 543 cases that will never be tried.

Why? Schmidt says he’s acting–or, more accurately, not acting–in the “interest of justice.” To be clear, he’s not saying there’s insufficient evidence or some other legal impediment to prosecution. He’s just saying that he won’t do his job.

By refusing to uphold the law, Schmidt’s perverse sense of “justice” can only encourage rioters in Portland to continue their criminal activity night after night.

 

Certainly, that’s the case with Peter Curtis, who goes by the name of Tabitha Poppins. Arrested at least five times since the Portland “protests” began, Poppins described Schmidt’s policy not to prosecute many protest-related crimes as a “win.”

And Poppins sure knows how to celebrate. Mere hours after having being bailed out of jail for riotous offenses, Poppins was living it up at another riot, banging a bucket while standing atop a stolen table burning in the street.

 

Schmidt’s refusal to prosecute rioters who destroy property and endanger lives led Clackamas County Sheriff Craig Roberts to refuse to send his deputies in to help restore order in Portland. Why should he put his officers at risk, he wrote when “(t)he same offenders are arrested night after night, only to be released by the court and not charged with a crime by the DA’s Office. The next night they are back at it, endangering the lives of law enforcement and the community all over again.”

 

The Oregon state police have followed suit, choosing to keep their officers working outside of Portland–that is, in jurisdictions where their arrests are not rendered null and void by a rogue district attorney who refuses to do his job.
