The FBI, now under new leadership aligned with President Donald Trump’s law-and-order agenda, is reopening two of the most glaringly unresolved controversies of Joe Biden’s presidency: the 2022 Supreme Court leak of the Dobbs v. Jackson decision and the 2023 cocaine discovery inside the White House.

FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino, a former Secret Service agent and longtime conservative voice, announced Monday via the X platform that the bureau is reinvigorating investigations into both incidents, which were previously closed without resolution under the prior administration.

“We made the decision to either re-open, or push additional resources and investigative attention, to these cases,” Bongino wrote. “These cases are the DC pipe bombing investigation, the cocaine discovery at the prior administration’s White House, and the leak of the Supreme Court Dobbs case.”

Bongino said he now receives weekly briefings on these matters and made a direct appeal for public assistance:

“If you have any investigative tips on these matters that may assist us then please contact the FBI.”

The May 2022 leak of the Supreme Court’s draft opinion in Dobbs—the landmark ruling that rightly returned abortion decisions to the states and overturned Roe v. Wade—was an unprecedented breach of the Court’s integrity. The leak, published by Politico, ignited months of nationwide unrest, illegal protests outside justices’ homes, and even an attempted assassination plot targeting Justice Brett Kavanaugh.

At the time, then-former President Trump didn’t mince words, branding the leaker “slime” and calling for the journalists involved to be jailed until they revealed the culprit.

Yet under the Biden administration, the Supreme Court’s internal probe ended without identifying the leaker—a conclusion that many on the right found wholly unsatisfactory and suspicious.

Then came July 2023, when a bag of cocaine was found in a cubby near the West Wing entrance. Despite intense speculation and surveillance capabilities that should have made identifying the suspect straightforward, the Secret Service concluded its investigation within 11 days and closed the case, citing a “lack of evidence.”

President Trump rightly rejected the rushed closure, calling it “obvious” that the drugs belonged to either President Biden or his troubled son, Hunter Biden—who, while not in D.C. at the time of the discovery, had well-documented access to the White House and a history of drug abuse.

Bongino, while hosting his talk show during Biden’s term, mentioned having received whistleblower tips alleging that evidence had been suppressed or ignored—tips that pointed toward possible involvement from within the Biden inner circle.

Bongino also confirmed that the FBI is allocating new resources to its ongoing investigation into the January 5, 2021 planting of pipe bombs near the DNC and RNC headquarters in Washington. Those explosives were found the night before January 6 and safely neutralized—but their placement remains a mystery, despite the existence of extensive surveillance footage.

This renewed effort suggests a broader move by the Trump-era FBI leadership to revisit unresolved and politically sensitive investigations that the Biden administration seemed more than willing to let quietly fade away.

In an era when federal institutions are widely distrusted—especially after years of politicized leadership under Democrats—Bongino and FBI Director Kash Patel are taking a new approach to communication. Both men have limited media appearances, opting to focus on internal reforms and direct communication through written posts on secure platforms.

“The Director and I have done only one media interview together,” Bongino said. “We decided early on to limit our media footprint... There are both positives and negatives to this approach.”

Bongino also acknowledged the feedback from their recent interview and promised to release more details in the coming days to clarify outstanding questions. He noted the bureau is close to completing its overhaul with reform-minded hires expected to be in place soon.

“This will help us both in doubling down on our reform agenda,” he said.

These renewed investigations come amid a broader push by President Donald Trump’s administration to restore public faith in federal law enforcement—something Biden’s DOJ squandered through selective prosecution, partisan targeting, and blatant double standards.

By reopening these high-profile cases, the FBI under Bongino and Patel is signaling that accountability, not political expediency, will guide its efforts. For Americans concerned about transparency, justice, and equal application of the law, this marks a welcome course correction.
