The FBI is reopening investigations into three high-profile controversies from the Biden era that were previously left unresolved, signaling renewed scrutiny into incidents that have long raised serious concerns among the American public.
According to the Deputy Director Dan Bongino, fresh resources are now being allocated to reexamine:
1. The White House Cocaine Incident
In July 2023, a small bag of cocaine was discovered in a storage cubby inside the West Wing of the White House—steps away from the Oval Office. At the time, the Biden family was at Camp David. The Secret Service abruptly closed the investigation after just ten days, citing “a lack of physical evidence” and “inconclusive security footage.” No suspect was ever named. The quick dismissal drew bipartisan criticism and deepened public suspicion about transparency inside the Biden White House.
2. The January 6 Pipe Bombs
On the eve of the January 6 Capitol protests, two pipe bombs were planted near the headquarters of both the Republican and Democratic National Committees. Although the devices were discovered and safely defused, the individual responsible has never been identified. Surveillance footage from that day has sparked years of speculation, with critics accusing the Bureau of dragging its feet on the case while aggressively pursuing others tied to the events of January 6.
FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino stated that these cases are being revisited due to their continued national significance and the public’s right to transparency. He emphasized that each investigation will now receive the full weight of federal resources.
The reopened cases mark a rare admission that the original investigations under Biden-era leadership fell short. While the Biden administration has tried to move on from these scandals, the American people have not forgotten—and now the pressure is back on the FBI to deliver real answers.
