A shocking claim is shaking Washington. Kash Patel, a former Trump official, is set to tell Congress that the FBI buried evidence about China鈥檚 role in the 2020 election. Kash Patel says that Christopher Wray, who was then the Director, ignored and buried an important internal report. The new information could start a new round of arguments about the honesty of elections and the FBI’s responsibility.Why did the FBI pull a report on Chinese meddling?Kash Patel is to present evidence that former FBI Director Christopher Wray misled Congress on Wednesday, according to an exclusive revelation from The Daily Mail.Kash Patel says that the FBI hid proof that China tried to interfere in the 2020 election, which goes against what then-Director Wray said. He says that top agents kept an internal report from Congress. Patel now wants to reveal the cover-up, which he calls the FBI’s “weaponization,鈥 as per a report by the Daily Mail.Live EventsHe will describe, in particular, how headquarters recalled a report just because it went against Wray’s statements made to Congress under oath that China was not running a foreign influence campaign in the U.S. elections.Did Wray mislead Congress under oath?According to Patel, the FBI field office in Albany, New York, issued an Internal Intelligence Report (IRR) that was released before being withdrawn without explanation.In order to protect Wray from criticism, FBI executives at the time closed this valid investigation against the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), according to insiders who spoke to the Daily Mail.The Albany office released an IRR on the claims, and the FBI was looking into whether CCPs were using driver’s licenses to get paper votes at the time. Patel claims that headquarters then gave them instructions to delete the report and present it as if it never existed, as per a report.What will Kash Patel reveal to Congress?The current FBI stated that the FBI discovered the IRR by investigating the actions of the former FBI leadership and finding out that the report had been removed, as per a report by the Daily Mail.’The reporting will contradict Director Wray’s testimony,’ the current Director will tell Congress on Wednesday, explaining why the IRR on this investigation was never made public.ALSO READ: Hours after partying with doctor, 31-year-old influencer Ana B谩rbara Buldrini dies – here’s what happenedIn September 2020, Republican Sen.
