Democrat-allied groups have unleashed an aggressive opposition research operation to dig up unflattering allegations against House Republicans who are investigating President Biden, his family and his administration.

The effort, designed to discredit and distract from the congressional probes targeting Mr. Biden, were launched Monday with recycled allegations from years ago against the Republicans who are poised to lead the probes, Reps. Jim Jordan of Ohio and James Comer of Kentucky.

One of the three organizations intent on protecting Mr. Biden by going on offense against the GOP in the new Congress is known as “Facts First,” which is headed up by David Brock, the former self-described “right-wing hit man” who later went on to become a high-profile left-wing political operative within the Democratic Party.
