Ex-FBI agents fighting charges accusing them of lying about Hunter Biden probe
The Justice Department charged two former FBI officials with lying to Congress about their involvement in investigating Hunter Biden's laptop before the 2020 election. The officials, who worked in foreign interference intelligence, allegedly made false statements about their roles in that probe. A federal judge criticized how the DOJ handled the case. Defense lawyers for the two officials have questioned whether the evidence supporting the charges is strong and raised concerns about the prosecutors' motives.
