The House Oversight Committee has scheduled a hearing for next Wednesday, during which two IRS whistleblowers will provide testimony.
One of the whistleblowers, whose identity has not yet been disclosed, has come forward alleging that an investigation into Hunter Biden was deliberately delayed by prosecutors.
The House Ways and Means Committee shared the testimony of IRS investigator Gary Shapley and the unidentified individual, referred to as “Whistleblower X,” on the same day that U.S. Attorney for Delaware, David Weiss, announced a plea deal with Hunter Biden that involves guilty pleas on two tax charges.
Shapley specifically claimed that Biden received preferential treatment, with prosecutors showing reluctance to pursue search warrants, as reported by The Hill.
He further asserted that Weiss was unable to bring charges in Washington D.C., where he believed the case would have had the strongest grounds.
House Oversight Chair James Comer (R-Ky.) expressed his concern about what he perceives as a two-tiered system of justice that allows the Biden family to operate with apparent impunity.
Comer stated that the hearing provides an opportunity for whistleblowers and other witnesses to shed light on the alleged misuse of federal law enforcement power, aiming to address public outrage over the issue.
The identity of “Whistleblower X” is expected to be revealed during the afternoon hearing scheduled for July 19.
