Fox News star Maria Bartiromo was visibly stunned when Rep. James Comer, R-K.Y., told her that the key witness in his investigation into the Biden family has disappeared.
Bartiromo hosted Comer, the House Oversight Committee chairman, on her Sunday Morning Futures show and fumed that the mainstream media hasn’t given more attention to the Republican’s investigation into the Biden family foreign business deals made when Joe Biden was vice president of the Obama administration.
But the Fox News star was stunned when Comer said he had lost a key whistleblower. Bartiromo and other Fox News hosts have regularly pressed Comer about his evidence against Biden since the House Oversight chairman first made his accusations.
“You’ve spoken to whistleblowers. You’ve also spoken to an informant, who gave you all this information. Where is that informant today?” Bartiromo asked.
“Well, unfortunately, we can’t track down the informant,” Comer admitted. “We’re hopeful that the informant is still there. The whistleblower knows the informant. The whistleblower is very credible. And all we’re asking the FBI … is, ‘What did you do to investigate'” the allegations into the Biden family. “This is a pattern of behavior from the FBI.”
“No president has ever been accused of the things that the Biden family has been accused of,” Comer said.
“Hold on a second, Congressman,” Bartiromo injected. “Did you just say that the whistleblower or the informant is now missing?”
Comer said it was a common problem among witnesses in the Biden investigation.
“Well, we’re hopeful that we can find the informant,” Comer replied. “Remember, these informants are kind of in the spy business, so they don’t make a habit of being seen a lot or being high profile or anything like that.”
“We have basic information with respect to what the informant has alleged, and it is very serious,” he said.
“It alleges that Joe Biden, when he was vice president, was involved in a quid pro quo with a foreign country in exchange for foreign aid. This is a very serious accusation.”
“Are there whistleblowers missing right now?” Bartiromo asked.
“Nine of the ten people that we’ve identified that have very good knowledge with respect to the Bidens, they’re one of three things: They’re either currently in court, they’re currently in jail, or they’re currently missing,” he said.
