Multiple tips to diplomats and law enforcement that might explain a whistleblower claim describing President Biden taking bribes have emerged — as the White House said Thursday it had “nothing” to say about the matter.

House Oversight Committee chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) issued a subpoena Wednesday requiring the FBI to hand over an informant report that describes “an alleged criminal scheme involving then-Vice President Biden and a foreign national relating to the exchange of money for policy decisions.”

“I’m gonna have to refer you to the Justice Department on that,” National Security Council spokesman John Kirby told The Post during a White House briefing. “I have nothing for you on that today.”

“Do you know what country this pertains to or what policy decision?” a reporter asked.

“I have nothing for you, sir. I’m going to have to refer you to the Justice Department. And I’m getting the hook — see ya,” said Kirby, relinquishing the lectern to press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre.
