IRS whistleblowers: Hunter Biden indictment is a 'complete vindication' of investigation, allegations
IRS whistleblowers Gary Shapley and Joseph Ziegler said the new charges against Hunter Biden are a "complete vindication" of their years-long investigation into the president’s son.
Special Counsel David Weiss charged Biden late Thursday, alleging a "four-year scheme" when the president's son did not pay his federal income taxes from January 2017 to October 2020 while also filing false tax reports. Weiss filed the charges in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California.
The charges break down to three felonies and six misdemeanors concerning $1.4 million in owed taxes that were since paid.
IRS whistleblowers Gary Shapley and Joseph Ziegler approached Congress earlier this year, alleging that prosecutorial decisions made throughout the federal investigation into the president’s son were impacted by politics.
"Eight months ago we did something ordinary people don’t do: we risked our careers and reputations to bring the truth out of the shadows and into the light," Shapley and Ziegler said in a joint-statement. "We were moved solely by our consciences, yet faced continual attacks. Nevertheless, in the face of all odds, we never wavered from what we shared with Congress."
Shapley and Ziegler said the indictment "is a complete vindication of our thorough investigation, and underscores the wide agreement by investigators and prosecutors that the evidence supported charges against Hunter Biden."
=============================
These two guys saw how our system of justices was being perverted to protect Hunter so they came forward. Had they not blown the whistle on the preferential treatment Weiss was giving Hunter this whole thing would have been swept under the rug. They risked their careers to expose corruption in the DOJ. Now its time to expose Garland for lying to Congress under oath. Garland's story and Weiss' story do not match up. Lying to Congress is a felony. They need to put both Weiss and Garland together before Congress under oath and get the story straight.
