Two team-right senators are requesting the directors of the FBI, the U.S. Secret Service and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives to provide details on their alleged investigation into Hunter Biden’s missing gun.
In their letter, Sens. Chuck Grassley and Ron Johnson reference a report from Politico about the gun incident, requesting all records no later than April 8, 2021.
“According to the report, neither Joe Biden nor Hunter Biden was a secret Service protectee at that time. However, according to this report, a ‘law enforcement official’ claimed that Secret Service agents in Delaware ‘kept an informal hand in maintaining the former vice president’s security.’ If true, USSS must explain to Congress why such informal actions were taken and whether they were necessary in light of the circumstances,” the letter reads.
As reported by Human Events News last week, in October of 2018, Hunter and Hallie Biden the widow of Beau, who Hunter dated after his brother’s death were involved in a bizarre incident in which Hallie took Hunter’s gun and threw it in a trash can behind a grocery store. Upon returning to retrieve it, she discovered it had vanished, thus prompting a law enforcement investigation.
Secret Service agents went to the store where Hunter purchased the gun, asking for the paperwork involving the sale. The owner refused to hand it over, suspecting that the Secret Service agents wanted to hide Hunter’s ownership of the missing gun in case it were to be involved in a crime.
However, the Secret Service says it has no record of its agents investigating the incident, and of course, Joe Biden has no recollection either.
The Secret Service denied this week that the agency was involved in the incident.
“U.S. Secret Service records confirm that the agency did not provide protection to any member of the Biden family in 2018, and that the Secret Service had no involvement in this alleged incident,” the agency said in a statement.
However, a trove of text messages leaked on Friday claimed that the FBI and Secret Service did, in fact, show up to investigate, according to the Daily Caller.
“She stole the gun out of my trunk lock box and threw it in a garbage can full to the top at Jansens. Then told me it was my problem to deal with,” Hunter wrote in a January 2019 text. “Then when the police the FBI the secret service came on the scene she said she took it from me because she was scared I would harm myself due to my drug and alcohol problem and our volatile relationship and that she was afraid for the kids.”
Something doesn’t add up.
The report comes amidst an investigation into Hunter Biden’s tax issues by the U.S. Attorney’s office in Delaware. The investigation began in 2018, the same year as the gun incident.

The GOP is actually doing something ?? Quick, someone check and see if Hell has frozen over !!
WHY WASn’t this all demanded, BACK IN 2018 when this HAPPENED!?!?!?!?
Well….they are not actually doing anything. They are simply acting like they are doing something. And this is what they are really good at.
And the Swamp wonders how Trump got elected.
“Two team-right senators are requesting the directors of the FBI, the U.S. Secret Service and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives to provide details on their alleged investigation into Hunter Biden’s missing gun”. Hey Sens. Chuck Grassley and Ron Johnson, guess what, the FBI, the Secret Service and ATFE will not cooperate with you, and you Chcuk Grassley and Ron Johnson already know that. The above mentioned agencies are corrupt, so this will be nothing but a committee hearing photo op, with nothing accomplished. These committee hearings accomplish nothing. The corruption in Washington DC, stinks like fish that have been rotting in 90% weather for a week.
Another example of “Do as I say, not as I do” which seems to be rampant among Demo-RATS !!! No Justice , No Piece !!!
DEMS have been that way IMO since at least the 50s..
I’d like to know how a career weasel politician sucking on the public for 47 years can afford 4 high end homes on a government salary. Or maybe explain why foreign nationals or corporations would appoint his unqualified druggie idiot son to high paying positions. But naturally there is NO money laundering or transfer of funds to a United States senator/vice president/president. That would require favoratism and a quid pro quo action on the part of a “servant” of the people , betraying them and the country.
ITS because of all the money from the PACS and such, they get…
