House Republicans abandon plan to hold FBI director in contempt over Biden document.

TL;DR Summary
House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer has withdrawn a contempt of Congress charge against FBI Director Christopher Wray after the bureau offered to give the full committee access to a confidential document of an unverified tip about President Joe Biden. The document alleges a bribery scheme involving then-Vice President Joe Biden and a foreign national. The FBI has called the contempt vote unwarranted, while Comer had consistently said for the past month that the only way for the FBI to comply with the subpoena is to provide an unredacted copy of the document.
