Actor Jeremy Renner shared a photograph over the weekend of his recovery following a tragic snow plow accident that he suffered earlier this month.

Renner was injured over the New Year’s weekend in an attempt to help a stranded family member when his 14,330-pound snowcat machine ran over him. Renner was transported by helicopter from his home in Reno, Nevada, to Renown Regional Medical Center, the region’s only trauma center, where it was determined he had suffered blunt chest trauma. A representative for Renner stated at the time, “He has returned from surgery and will remain in the intensive care unit in critical but stable condition.”

Renner shared a photograph of himself in a hospital bed on Saturday from inside his home.

“I want to thank EVERYONE for their messages and thoughtfulness,” Renner said. “Much love and appreciation to you all. These 30 plus broken bones will mend , grow stronger, just like the love and bond with family and friends deepens.”

Renner said in an Instagram post this week that he was “missing my happy place” following the accident, an apparent reference to his Reno-area, Nevada, home.

Sources told Radar Online that Renner’s road to recovery could take two years to complete and that Renner “almost bled out” at the scene of the accident.

“It’s much worse than anyone knows. Jeremy is very aware of the fact that he almost died out there,” one source said. “The right side of Jeremy’s chest was crushed, and his upper torso had collapsed. He also had a bad head wound that was bleeding and a leg injury.”

“He knew he was in bad shape and that he might not make it out of this,” another source added.

A third insider stated, “Word is the damage to Jeremy’s chest was so substantial it had to be reconstructed in surgery.” Another source said Renner had undergone multiple surgeries.

“So far, he’s had two surgeries and he will likely require more in the weeks ahead on his leg,” the source said. “Doctors tend to space out operations to allow time for the body’s natural healing process to kick in, and that’s the case here.”

“Jeremy’s doing okay,” one source opined. “He’s pretty doped up and he’s got tubes to help him breathe, but he’s a fighter, and he’s determined to get through this.”

President Joe Biden’s Department of Justice said in a letter Friday to the House Judiciary Committee that it will likely not share information about the investigation into Biden’s handling of classified information from his time as vice president.

Classified documents connected with Biden were first found in his private office at the Penn Biden Center, a think tank in Washington, D.C., on November 2, less than a week before the 2022 midterm elections. Since then, Biden’s attorneys have located more classified documents at Biden’s home in Wilmington, Delaware, on three separate occasions: an unspecified number found in the garage on December 20, one document found in Biden’s study on January 11, and five more found in the study on January 12.

U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland appointed former U.S. Attorney Robert Hur — who served during the Trump administration — to serve as special counsel in the investigation after the U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Illinois John Lausch, who was assigned to do an initial review of the case, recommended to Garland that a special counsel be appointed.

“Consistent with longstanding policy and practice, any oversight requests must be weighed against the Department’s interests in protecting the integrity of its work,” the DOJ said in a letter to Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH). “Longstanding Department policy prevents us from confirming or denying the existence of pending investigations in response to congressional requests or providing non-public information about our investigations.”

“The Department’s mission to independently and impartially uphold the rule of law requires us to maintain the integrity of our investigations, prosecutions, and civil actions, and to avoid even a perception that our efforts are influenced by anything but the law and the facts,” the letter continued. “So does the Department’s obligation to protect witnesses and law enforcement, avoid flight by those implicated in our investigations, and prevent additional crimes and attacks.”

The House Judiciary Committee responded to the letter, “Why’s DOJ scared to cooperate with our investigations?”

USA Today noted that the letter from the DOJ came in response to a letter from Jordan that “demanded documents and communications about a cache of classified documents found at Biden’s former office at a think tank in Washington and at his Wilmington home.”

Biden responded to the scandal on Thursday by saying that he has “no regrets” over his actions and that getting questions about the investigation “quite frankly bugs” him.

“We’re fully cooperating, looking forward to getting this resolved quickly,” Biden claimed. “I think you’re gonna find there’s nothing there. I have no regrets. I’m following what the lawyers have told me they want me to do — that’s exactly what we’re doing. There’s no there, there.”
