Overview

  • On May 26, 2025, Deputy Director Dan Bongino and Director Kash Patel decided to reopen or allocate additional resources to three unsolved Biden-era cases.
  • The bureau will revisit three incidents, including a 2023 cocaine discovery in a West Wing cubby, the May 2022 leak of the Supreme Court’s draft Dobbs opinion and Jan. 2021 pipe bombs placed near DNC and RNC headquarters.
  • Previous investigations by the Secret Service and the Supreme Court marshal’s office ended with no suspects identified due to insufficient evidence or viable leads.
  • Bongino has requested weekly briefings on each probe’s progress and urged the public to submit any relevant tips to the FBI.
  • Conservative figures publicly spotlighted these unresolved incidents, intensifying calls for accountability and renewed FBI scrutiny.
