The FBI has disclosed allegations that the Chinese Communist Party manufactured counterfeit U.S. driver’s licenses and shipped them to the United States to assist individuals in fraudulently voting for Biden.

These allegations are part of an ongoing Senate Judiciary Committee inquiry following the FBI’s release of a relevant internal document on Monday evening. The document—requested in late May by Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley (R‑Iowa) and released by FBI Director Kash Patel—suggests that the Chinese government produced fake U.S. driver’s licenses in August 2020. These licenses were allegedly distributed to Chinese-supporting individuals within the U.S. to facilitate tens of thousands of illegal mail-in votes for Joe Biden, despite those individuals being ineligible to vote. The document did not confirm whether actual ballots were cast as part of this plot.

A spokesperson for Grassley told Fox News Digital that the FBI provided the document in response to a government whistleblower disclosure, highlighting “serious national security concerns that require a full investigation by the FBI.”

The document strongly emphasizes that it is an “information report,” not a finalized intelligence assessment. It is intended for informational purposes only, has not been fully vetted, and has not been corroborated with other intelligence. Recipients are cautioned not to act solely on this raw data without coordination with the FBI. Additionally, it maintains the presumption of innocence for any individuals mentioned unless criminal charges are filed.

According to the document, an unnamed, indirect source claimed—in less than a year’s time—that the Chinese government produced large quantities of fake licenses and exported them to the U.S. in August 2020. The source's details were second-hand, allegedly obtained from unspecified Chinese government officials.

What We Know and What Remains Unverified

1. Document Issued by the FBI

   • Director Kash Patel declassified and shared an FBI intelligence information report with the Senate in mid‑June
     

2. Claim of Fake Licenses and Mail‑in Votes

   • The document claims thousands of counterfeit U.S. driver's licenses were produced in China and sent to the U.S. for use in mail-in voting favoring Biden .

3. Source Reliability Is Unconfirmed

   • The document characterizes the source as second-hand and indirect, with no verified confirmation.

4. Seizure of Fake Licenses by CBP in 2020

   • U.S. Customs and Border Protection did seize nearly 20,000 counterfeit driver’s licenses at Chicago O’Hare airport in early 2020—but no evidence at the time linked these to voter fraud or the 2020 election.

5. No Confirmed Vote Fraud to Date

   • There is currently no public evidence that ballots were cast using these fake licenses. Independent fact-checking groups in 2020 consistently found no link between the seized IDs and actual voter fraud.

6. Historical U.S. Intelligence Findings

   • Former FBI Director Chris Wray testified that, before Election Day 2020, there were "no known plots" from foreign governments to manipulate mail-in ballots in Biden’s favor.

Current Status

• The FBI and Senate Judiciary Committee are actively reviewing this intelligence.

• Senate Chairman Grassley has asked the FBI to explain what happened with the report, why it was previously recalled, and whether related internal communications have been destroyed
  

• Investigators are working to determine whether these allegations have any merit and if any actual fraudulent votes were cast.
