Another IRS Hunter Biden whistleblower emerges

Thanks to one supervisor at the IRS who stepped forward as a whistleblower in the Hunter Biden investigation, we recently learned that the entire team who had been working on the case since 2018 had been dismissed and assigned to other duties. Yesterday, a second IRS agent from the former task force came forward and will testify before Congress as well. This special agent will reportedly testify regarding concerns he raised about the Justice Department’s handling of the investigation. We should now be in line to witness the next round of congressional Democrats and MSM talking heads scrambling to explain how this is all perfectly normal or simply ignoring the story entirely.

The existence of a second IRS whistleblower in the criminal investigation of first son Hunter Biden emerged Monday in documents sent to Congress following the purge of the entire investigatory team looking into President Biden’s son for tax fraud and related crimes.

The new whistleblower is a special agent in the IRS’s international tax and financial crimes group and worked on the Hunter Biden case since it opened in 2018 — before being ousted without explanation last week.

The agent joins his supervisor, who plans to testify behind closed doors before the House Ways and Means Committee on Friday, in publicly registering concerns about how the Justice Department has handled the investigation.

The latest whistleblower will describe how he had internally raised concerns “for years” about how the case was being “swept under the rug.” He will also describe the retaliation he suffered as a result of attempting to press the case forward and speaking out about it to his supervisors.

If the committee has the opportunity to raise additional questions, I hope they can address one that I’ve brought up here before. This was an investigation being conducted by the Internal Revenue Service. Why was the Justice Department calling the shots and determining who would or would not be investigated for tax fraud? The IRS falls under the Treasury Department.

In a “normal” world (with apologies to some of our younger readers who may no longer know what that phrase means), the IRS would investigate suspected cases of tax fraud and turn the results over to the Justice Department for prosecution based on the evidence they uncovered. The Justice Department would not be stepping in and determining who would or would not be investigated.

We’ve already come to expect that the FBI and the rest of the DoJ would use “prosecutorial discretion” to drop any matter involving someone with “Biden” as their surname while inventing reasons to prosecute anyone named “Trump.” But they used to at least allow the initial investigations to proceed.

How much more of this do we need to hear from the people who were directly involved in these investigations before the supposed journalists at CNN, MSNBC, and the alphabet networks have their interest piqued? I suppose that’s a silly question at this stage of the game. They couldn’t be bothered to raise an eyebrow when it was revealed that the Chinese communist party had funneled tens of millions of dollars to the Biden family through a labyrinth of LLCs in an obvious money laundering operation. Why would they care about a tax fraud investigation that was shut down because it might be inconvenient to the President’s family? We no longer have a functional justice system and something must be done about this. You are watching our system of constitutional justice fall apart before your eyes.
