The word "shocking" gets thrown around a lot, but when you start to understand just how outrageous the latest revelations surrounding the prosecution - or lack thereof - of Hunter Biden, shocking is really the only word that works.
According to the IRS whistleblower, the Hunter Biden prosecutor told six witnesses he couldn’t charge outside Delaware. This contradicts direct testimony given by the Attorney General, Merrick Garland.
IRS supervisory agent Gary Shapley gave this information to the House Ways and Means Committee last month.
And the six witnesses are not just nameless faceless people either. Shapley’s legal team identified four of them in the meeting as Baltimore FBI Special Agent in Charge Tom Sobocinski and Assistant Special Agent in Charge Ryeshia Holley, as well as Shapley and his boss, IRS Special Agent in Charge Darrell Waldon.
On top of that, Shapley also named in his testimony Shawn Weede and Shannon Hanson, who work in Weiss’ office as a criminal chief prosecutor and assistant prosecutor.
“He surprised us by telling us on the charges, ‘I’m not the deciding official on whether charges are filed,’” Shapley said his May 26 testimony, which the committee has now released.
“He then shocked us with the earth-shattering news that the Biden-appointed DC US Attorney Matthew Graves would not allow him to charge in his district.”
This refusal to prosecute means that Hunter would not face tax charges related to “foreign income from Burisma [Holdings] and a scheme to evade his income taxes through a partnership with a convicted felon” in 2014 and 2015. “The purposeful exclusion of the 2014 and 2015 years sanitized the most substantive criminal conduct and concealed material facts,” Shapley said.
Given this, should the judge reject Hunter's please deal in light of these shocking disclosures from the IRS whistleblower?
