An FBI file reportedly revealed a Ukrainian oligarch who owns the Burisma energy company where Hunter Biden worked referred to Joe Biden as the “big guy,” the Washington Examiner reports.

Mykola Zlochevsky, owner of Burisma, was allegedly identified as the “foreign national” involved in a criminal bribery scheme, according to a confidential FBI record whose contents were described to the Examiner. Zlochevsky allegedly referred to Joe Biden as “the big guy” in a conversation predating the June 2020 source form and discussed $5 million bribes to both Joe Biden and Hunter Biden, the Examiner’s sources reported.

Republican Iowa Sen. Chuck Grassley, in an October 2022 letter to the Attorney General, demanded law enforcement release the “voluminous” amount of information on the Bidens’ potential criminal conduct. Through what Grassley described as “a significant number of protected communications” with “highly credible whistleblowers,” he learned “the FBI has within its possession a series of documents relating to information on Mykola Zlochevsky, the owner of Burisma, and his business and financial associations with Hunter Biden.” He continued, “The documents in the FBI’s possession include specific details with respect to conversations by non-government individuals relevant to potential criminal conduct by  Hunter Biden.”

The House Committee on Oversight and Accountability subpoenaed the FBI May 3 requesting an “unclassified FD-1023 form” on Burisma and the Bidens’ dealings.

The committee’s chair, GOP Rep. James Comer, and Democrat ranking member Rep. Jamie Raskin were permitted to see the document Monday, The Daily Caller reported. Upon reviewing the document, Comer told reporters, “Today FBI officials confirmed that the unclassified FBI generated record has not been disproven and is currently being used in an ongoing investigation.” Comer continued, “The confidential human source who provided information about then-Vice President Biden being involved in a criminal bribery scheme is a trusted, highly credible informant who has been used by the FBI for over ten years and has been paid over six figures.” (RELATED: EXCLUSIVE: ‘Should Be Prosecuted’ — MTG Says Joe Biden Should Serve Jail Time After Reading FBI Doc Relating To Burisma)

“The big guy” moniker has also appeared on a now-infamous email to Hunter Biden from his associate James Gilliar referring to a deal with defunct Chinese energy giant CEFC.

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.
