Every taxpayer who dutifully hands over their hard-earned cash every year to the government should be enraged by IRS whistleblower Gary Shapley’s testimony about how senior leaders at the Department of Justice, the FBI and the IRS sabotaged the five-year investigation into Hunter Biden and allowed him to walk away with a laughably lenient plea deal and unpaid taxes.
Shapley is a hero, as is the second IRS whistleblower who came forward to the House Ways and Means Committee over the last month to tell the truth about an egregious abuse of power at the highest level of the federal government to protect the president from evidence that implicated him in his son’s overseas business dealings and which line agents worried could have national security implications.
There are two strands to this growing scandal.
First is the original story of political corruption first revealed on Hunter Biden’s abandoned laptop, which The Post broke on Oct. 14, 2020.
Second is the cover-up, which, like Watergate, has become the bigger scandal.
Corruption
Both strands are covered in Shapley’s bombshell testimony unsealed last week, and are backed up with new evidence he provided, including documents and messages retrieved from a search warrant of Hunter Biden’s iCloud, conversations from recorded internal IRS and DOJ meetings and interview transcripts with associates of Hunter Biden.
Shapley provides further evidence to add to what we previously have reported, that Joe Biden lied repeatedly to the American people when he said he knew nothing about his son Hunter’s overseas business dealings.
In fact, as we have reported, Joe Biden met with Hunter’s foreign business partners on at least a dozen occasions.
Shapley adds to the list with evidence that Joe joined Hunter and his business partners from the Chinese energy company CEFC at a lunch at the Four Seasons in Washington, DC.
This meeting was revealed by Biden family friend Rob Walker when he was interviewed by an IRS and FBI agent in December 2020.
