DOJ Accused Of ‘Witness Intimidation’ After Bombshell Report On Their Efforts To Throttle IRS Whistleblowers

The top Republican investigating Biden family corruption is infuriated at a new report demonstrating that Hunter Biden’s legal team encouraged the Department of Justice to prosecute IRS whistleblowers accusing the department of giving him ‘special treatment.’

According to communication acquired by the New York Times, Special Counsel David Weiss did not plan to charge the president’s son with any tax crimes until after two IRS whistleblowers came forward accusing illegal politicization of Hunter’s case.

In addition, the report states that Hunter’s legal team were frustrated at the IRS agents who ‘affected the deal’ that came apart in court last month – in part due to the allegations brought to light by the agents.

As a result, Hunter’s lawyers ‘contended to the Justice Department that by disclosing details about the investigation to Congress, they broke the law and should be prosecuted.’

‘Biden family attorneys are now pushing the Biden DOJ to prosecute IRS whistleblowers for sharing information with Congress,’ House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer fumed in response to the report.

‘These brave whistleblowers testified under oath and deserve protection. This witness intimidation is unacceptable,’ he continued on Twitter, known as ‘X.’

Attorneys for the whistleblowers said that if it weren’t for their ‘courageous actions’ Hunter would never have been charged at all.

Comer, R-Ky., told Fox News‘ Maria Bartiromo on ‘Sunday Morning Futures’ that Republicans are ‘facing obstruction like has never been demonstrated in the history of congressional investigations.’

‘Not only are we being obstructed by the Biden legal team, we’re being obstructed by the Department of Justice. We’re being obstructed by the FBI, by the Secret Service, by the IRS, by the Democrats on the House Oversight Committee. And the next question is will we be obstructed by the new Special Counsel David Weiss investigating this.’

As for next steps in the GOP probe, they will be zeroing in on nailing down the Biden family’s overseas accounts.

‘We’ve heard a report from a whistleblower that there are overseas accounts and we’re going to be working with the Ways and Means Committee to try to get those overseas accounts,’ he pledged.

The ‘special treatment’ for Hunter became a pattern that kept happening over and over, said the whistleblowers who were told they would get in ‘hot water’ if they tried to speak with President Joe Biden’s adult children and grandchildren over the course of their investigation.

The collapse of Hunter Biden’s original plea deal also presents more problems for his father, Joe Biden. The president will now face more headlines and questions involving his drug-addict son’s case as he hits the 2024 campaign trail.

The unraveling of the agreement between prosecutors and the defense team means Hunter could now face more charges. It also means that Hunter is likely to face additional prosecutions down the road.

Those may include any crimes related to his business deals with Ukraine, Romania and China that raked in millions of dollars.

And Republicans say Joe was at the center of them.

The White House has maintained that the president has never been ‘in business’ with his son.
