FBI agent who investigated Hunter Biden confirms IRS whistleblower's allegations in 'sickening testimony'
The House Oversight Committee on Monday night said they had spoken to an FBI agent, who confirmed some claims made by an IRS whistleblower
Republicans running the House Oversight Committee's investigation into Hunter Biden claim an FBI agent has confirmed allegations that the president's son had been given favorable treatment by investigators.
Two IRS whistleblowers - one anonymous, the other named Gary Shapley - have claimed that Hunter was treated more leniently than ordinary Americans by officials delving into his tax affairs and his lying about drug use on a gun permit.
On Monday, the Committee said in a lengthy tweet that an FBI agent who worked on the case agreed with Shapley that the 53-year-old was given preferential treatment.
Shapley and his colleague said there had been a pattern of 'slow-walking investigative steps' and delaying enforcement actions in the months before the 2020 election, won by Joe Biden.
It is unclear whether the conflict they describe amounts to internal disagreement about how to pursue the investigation or a pattern of interference.
Department policy has long warned prosecutors to take care in charging cases with potential political overtones around the time of an election, to avoid influencing the outcome.
Shapley will testify before the House Oversight Committee on Wednesday.
Shapley has already told the House Ways and Means Committee that U.S. Attorney David Weiss, who has overseen the years-long Hunter Biden probe, said he doesn't make the ultimate decision on charges.
Weiss, according to Shapley, also said he had been denied special counsel authority.
But Weiss denied Shapley's claims, saying he was given free rein to do what he wanted, and he never sought special counsel powers.
