FBI Reopens Three Unsolved Biden-Era Washington Cases

The FBI, under the leadership of Director Kash Patel and Deputy Director Dan Bongino, has announced it is reopening investigations into three unresolved cases from the Biden administration: the 2023 discovery of cocaine at the White House, the 2022 leak of the Supreme Court’s Dobbs v. Jackson draft opinion, and the 2021 pipe bombings near the Democratic and Republican National Committee headquarters. The cocaine was found in a common area near the West Wing, with the Secret Service closing its initial investigation due to lack of physical evidence and multiple individuals having access, but the FBI plans to reassess potential links including claims involving President Biden's inner circle. The Supreme Court leak, which revealed the draft opinion that would overturn Roe v. Wade, remains unsolved despite an eight-month investigation that interviewed nearly 100 people and was reviewed by former Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff. The pipe bombings remain one of the most baffling unsolved crimes related to January 6, 2021, despite extensive tip assessments and review of thousands of video files. While some critics view the renewed investigations as politically motivated, particularly given Bongino's background and ties to the far right, the FBI maintains the cases are being revisited due to sustained public interest and unresolved questions. The efforts reflect a continued focus on public corruption and high-profile incidents from recent years that have sparked national scrutiny.
