An IRS whistleblower has revealed that investigators tasked with investigating Hunter Biden were prohibited from asking questions about his father, current President Joe Biden.
“We weren’t allowed to ask questions about the father, we weren’t allowed to ask about the grandfather, we weren’t allowed to include certain names in document requests and search warrants,” he said. ‘IRS Special Agent Gary Shapley. “So we were prevented from pursuing that line of questioning.”
“We were trying to follow the normal process, we were trying to get to the bottom of it,” Shapley told Baier. “Ultimately, if it was going to lead to another individual, we would have to follow it up to determine what’s going on, but there were definitely roadblocks that I’ve never seen in my 14 years in relation to this investigation that didn’t allow us to follow through the investigation. of anyone else to implicate President Biden.”
The House Ways and Means Committee released transcripts of statements by IRS whistleblowers, including Shapley, who accused Attorney General Merrick Garland and IRS Commissioner Danny Werfel of providing false information to Congress about the investigation by Hunter Biden.
“When prosecutors don’t allow you to name the subject in document requests or search warrants, then it raises the possibility that there’s more information that we haven’t found, but based on the financial records that we’ve found , have been analyzed. and were about 8.3 million received,” Shapley added.
On June 20, the Department of Justice announced that Biden would plead guilty to two misdemeanor tax charges, while a felony charge related to providing false information when purchasing a firearm would be addressed through a pretrial diversion program. trial after an investigation by US Attorney David Weiss. .
There is more evidence of investigative irregularities in the handling of the Hunter Biden case. A former business associate of Hunter and James Biden, who was involved in a Chinese energy deal in 2017, was never called to testify before a Delaware grand jury investigating Hunter Biden. The information was revealed by sources to CBS News investigative reporter Catherine Herridge.
The former partner, Tony Bobulinski, expressed a willingness to testify, but his attorney’s attempts to contact Delaware U.S. Attorney David Weiss went unanswered, according to the report. This decision not to implicate Bobulinski suggests that prosecutors deliberately avoided investigating certain allegations about President Joe Biden and his son Hunter Biden.
“I’ve heard Joe Biden say that he’s never discussed business with Hunter. That’s false. I have first-hand knowledge of this because I dealt directly with the Biden family, including Joe Biden,” Bobulinski said at the press conference .
Bobulinski’s claims have generated renewed interest among Republican congressional investigators following closed-door testimony from IRS whistleblowers to the House Ways and Means Committee. The whistleblowers alleged that Hunter Biden received preferential treatment that hindered federal investigators.
The Department of Justice (DOJ) has blocked US Attorney David Weiss from bringing tougher charges against Hunter Biden in both Washington, DC and California, the New York Times reports. This information corroborates claims made by IRS whistleblower Gary Shapley and Hunter Biden witness Tony Bobulinski.
