WATCH: DCExaminer’s SarahCWestwood says FBI will use 'ongoing investigations' to skirt Biden documents questions
The Washington Examiner's Sarah Westwood predicted on Tuesday that the FBI will use"the specter of an ongoing investigation" to avoid providing information about the classified documents found in President Joe Biden's home and office.
"Senate Intelligence Committee Democrats had been pestering the Justice Department for information about what kind of records Trump had in his home. The Justice Department's special counsel Jack Smith has been stymieing that committee. So, it's very possible that Republicans could find it more difficult to get information from the Justice Department about the investigation," Westwood explained.
According to Westwood, Comer's investigation"is focusing more on the substance of the case. What was in the documents that were found at Joe Biden's residence? Who searched for them? What were their job titles? What were their security clearances?" whereas Jordan's investigation"is not so much about Biden’s actual violation but how the Justice Department itself handled that.
"The Justice Department could have a tougher time stonewalling Jim Jordan’s investigation because it is not about what's at the heart of the ongoing criminal probe," Westwood continued.
