Lawyers of IRS informant in Hunter Biden investigation meet with Congress.

IRS Whistleblower Attorneys Meet with Congressional Investigators on Hunter Biden Probe

Attorneys for the Internal Revenue Service whistleblower who alleges the criminal investigation into Hunter Biden has become corrupted by lies and politics reportedly met with members of Congress. Sources told CNN the conversation on Friday with investigators from the GOP-led House Ways and Means Committee and Democrat-controlled Senate Finance Committee helps lay the groundwork for what could be a formal disclosure involving sensitive tax information in the near future.

Bipartisan Investigation

“The process is proceeding on a bipartisan basis with ranking member [Mike] Crapo’s staff,” Ryan Carey, a spokesman for Senate Finance Chairman Ron Wyden (D-OR), told the news outlet.

“Chairman [Jason] Smith is working to ensure all of the appropriate steps are taken in this particular investigation to receive and evaluate the allegations and information this whistleblower shares with Congress and has publicly pledged that the committee will go where the facts lead,” a House Ways and Means Committee spokesperson told CBS News.

Each week and day provide a new opportunity to advance this particular whistleblower claim and shed more light and transparency for the American people.

IRS and FBI Investigation

FBI and IRS investigators have been looking into Biden for years. After Biden’s lawyers met with Department of Justice officials late last month, sources told The Washington Post that potential charges for tax- and gun-related crimes may soon follow from Delaware’s U.S. Attorney David Weiss.

An IRS supervisor, who has not been publicly identified, reached out to top lawmakers last month seeking to make protected whistleblower disclosures to Congress about a high-profile investigation which has since been identified as the Hunter Biden probe. Hunter Biden has said he expects to be cleared of wrongdoing, and his father, President Joe Biden, told MSNBC last week that his son has “done nothing wrong.”

Attorney General Merrick Garland

The senior official referenced by Lytle in his letter to Congress has been identified as Attorney General Merrick Garland, who spoke briefly about the inquiry during congressional testimony in March. “I pledged not to interfere with that investigation and I have carried through on my pledge,” Garland testified to the Senate Judiciary Committee.

Pressed about the IRS whistleblower and his testimony during a news conference last week, Garland said his statement under oath remains true. “Yes, it’s still the case,” Garland said. “I stand by my testimony and I refer you to the U.S. attorney for the district of Delaware, who is in charge of this case and capable of making any decisions that he feels are appropriate.”

House Oversight Chairman James Comer

House Oversight Chairman James Comer (R-KY) is urging the Justice Department not to indict Hunter Biden until Republicans hold a press conference to present evidence showing how a “web” of LLCs is being used by foreign adversaries to improperly pay members of the Biden family in exchange for favors. The press conference is scheduled for 9 a.m. ET on Wednesday.

Conclusion

The IRS whistleblower’s attorneys meeting with congressional investigators about the Hunter Biden probe is a significant development in the ongoing investigation. The bipartisan investigation is proceeding, and the House Ways and Means Committee and Senate Finance Committee are working to ensure all appropriate steps are taken. The investigation has been ongoing for years, and potential charges for tax- and gun-related crimes may soon follow. Attorney General Merrick Garland has pledged not to interfere with the investigation, and House Oversight Chairman James Comer is urging the Justice Department not to indict Hunter Biden until Republicans hold a press conference to present evidence.
