House Judiciary Committee Chair Jim Jordan announced on Monday that FBI Special Agent Elvis Chan lied under oath about the bureau’s investigation and suppression of Hunter Biden’s laptop.
Hopefully, a criminal referral will be sent to the DOJ, although nothing will happen.
Mr. Chan, a member of the FBI’s Foreign Influence Task Force, was deposed in November 2022 on the FBI’s efforts to suppress news of the laptop as it spread across social media just before the 2020 election.
Chan was deposed in November 2022.
The transcript shows that he claimed to have “no internal knowledge” of the laptop investigation until the media published it.
He also claimed he was “not a party to any meeting” with social media companies where Biden or the laptop was discussed. He claimed he wasn’t aware of any other communications.
Mr. Jordan exposed the lies on X, noting that a former agent described a follow-up call with Mr. Chan on Oct. 15, 2020.
This was exposed in Twitter Files #4. It’s taking a long time for anything to happen.
Chan was the conduit between the FBI’s Foreign Influence Task Force and Big Tech.
Laura Dehmlow is the current Section Chief of the Foreign Influence Task Force. On Oct. 14, when Facebook asked if the laptop was real, she responded, “No comment,” even though the FBI had the laptop and knew it was real.
In July, @JudiciaryGOP and @Weaponization interviewed Laura Dehmlow. Her testimony was shocking, revealing that the FBI deliberately withheld critical information from social media companies about Hunter Biden’s laptop the day that the @nypost story broke.
The lawyers are dishonest also:
When Twitter asked if the laptop was real, an FBI agent said “yes.” But a second FBI agent—a lawyer—jumped in, cut him off, and said, “no further comment.”

The task force needs to be dismantled, and the agents sent to some remote outpost. The boss knew too.
Later that same day—October 14—Facebook met with the FBI, including Chan and Dehmlow.
Facebook asked the same question: is the laptop real? Now having its story straight, the FBI responded, “no comment.” pic.twitter.com/426HHmKtre

CHAN LIED
Did someone tell him to lie, or did he just know he had to lie?

Chan was asked again if, other than the October 14 Facebook-FITF meeting, he was “aware of any communications between anyone at Facebook and anyone at the FBI related to the Hunter Biden laptop story?”
He answered: “No.” pic.twitter.com/bwHXU9DjpC

Look at this little man, Jordan, play detective. We are not thrilled, we will not stay tuned for the next tantalizing PR episode. Jordan is not fulfilling his promises or his oath.
When Sessions and then Barr were made the USA AG’s, the death of justice in America was certain. Sessions was the sleeper, he was the real sneak who put the entire plan into place, with nearly everyone unsuspecting of him.
Now all we need to do is make sure we have a majority in Congress, Senate, get the White House and see if the repuks have the ba11s to put them in jail and burn the remaining to the ground.
