Just last month, GOP Senator Ron Johnson asked Horowitz to investigate the FBI’s handling of Hunter Biden’s laptop. According to Paul Sperry, it looks to be active.
DEVELOPING: DOJ IG Michael Horowitz is actively investigating the FBI's handling of the Hunter Biden laptop & whether it failed to act in a timely manner to investigate potentially criminal material on it –in a repeat of the FBI's attempt to bury the Weiner laptop emails in 2016

“On September 24, 2020, the day after Chairman Grassley and I released our report titled, “Hunter Biden, Burisma, and Corruption: The Impact on U.S. Government Policy and Related Concerns,” a whistleblower contacted my committee and informed my staff that he had possession of a laptop left in his business by Hunter Biden. He also informed us that he provided its contents to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) in response to a December 9, 2019 grand jury subpoena,” Johnson wrote.
“As the first step in our due diligence, committee staff contacted FBI officials and asked for confirmation of certain facts in an attempt to validate the whistleblower’s claims and assertions. Unfortunately several days later, the FBI responded that it would not confirm or deny any information identified by committee staff even though several of the questions were not related to the possible existence of an ongoing grand jury investigation.”
“I respectfully request that your office open an investigation into the FBI’s handling of the laptop allegedly belonging to Hunter Biden,” Johnson wrote.
