The reopening of the case of the former FBI agent, Charles McGonigal, has caused a great stir in the American media. After doubts raised by Congress about the way the case was handled and the deal McGonigal reached with justice, attention has once again returned to the scandal of the former spy chief of New York.
"New York Post" has devoted an article to this issue and how it is expected to proceed next. According to the article, the Judiciary Committee of the House of Representatives, in addition to making the files available, is preparing to subpoena the head of the FBI to Congress to provide information about Charles McGonigal.
The former spy's case looks set to come under full scrutiny from Congress as, in addition to looking at McGonigal's history with the Trump-Russia investigation, there has been interest in the work he may have done investigating Clinton.
In February, Senator Sheldon White House (D-RI) argued in a letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland that McGonigal "may have knowledge of or participated in political activities to harm then-candidate Hillary Clinton and assist then-candidate Donald Trump.”
Since taking the reins of the powerful committee, Jordan has clashed with the FBI repeatedly, accusing the bureau of bias against conservatives. Last week, Jordan subpoenaed an FBI agent to testify about the bureau's alleged efforts to "censor" the contents of McGonigal's social media file.
The panel, led by Rep. Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) first asked the bureau in February for related files on McGonigal after he was indicted in the Big Apple for his work with Oleg Deripaska and in D.C. for hiding money paid to him by a former member of the U.S. intelligence agency. Albania.
Meanwhile, on Tuesday, Republican Jordan renewed his February request for relevant documents and a briefing on the matter by Oct. 3.
" If you refuse to voluntarily produce the requested documents and information, the Committee may be forced to consider the use of compulsory process ," Jordan added.
This Wednesday, the Judiciary Committee is set to grill Garland on a variety of hot-button issues including the Hunter Biden investigation, legal issues against Trump and government weaponry.
