The gentle treatment from the Justice Department, said Grassley, “cannot...

Sen. Chuck Grassley implied the FBI may have defined the scope of its Hunter Biden investigation so narrowly, bribery allegations couldn’t be probed.Sen.

So when Grassley asked on Thursday whether bribery was within the parameters of Delaware’s investigation into Hunter Biden, it likely means the FBI defined the scope of the federal investigation into the president’s son so narrowly that agents lacked the authority to...

Biden is pushing his expected 2024 campaign kickoff even later in the year — and may even delay it until this fall, according to a new report.
