IRS whistleblowers allege misconduct in Hunter Biden investigation, Republicans accuse DOJ of unfair treatment while Democrats dismiss claims
- Two IRS whistleblowers, Gary Shapley and Joseph Ziegler, testified that their criminal tax investigation into Hunter Biden faced unusual obstacles and deviations from normal procedures.
- The whistleblowers claim felony tax charges were recommended but only misdemeanors were brought, investigative steps were delayed, and questioning Biden family members was restricted.
- House Republicans used the allegations to accuse the Justice Department of bias and unfair treatment of conservatives, while Democrats challenged the credibility of the claims.
- The hearing featured heated partisan exchanges, with Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene displaying explicit photos from Hunter Biden's laptop over Democratic objections.
- Hunter Biden agreed to a plea deal with probation on tax charges, but Republicans allege the leniency represents politicization and a "sweetheart deal."
