IRS whistleblowers will testify on alleged Biden influence peddling next week

A pair of IRS whistleblowers will appear before the House Committee on Oversight and Accountability next week to detail allegations of alleged influence peddling by the Biden family.

Whistleblower Gary Shapley and an unnamed subordinate previously testified to the House Ways and Means Committee that Biden-appointed officials had improperly interfered in the investigation of first son Hunter Biden to prevent the bringing of more serious charges against him and to delay the case until after election season.

Both worked extensively on the Hunter Biden case for years and have stated that they repeatedly attempted to address their concerns about the case internally, but that their warnings went unheeded.

The Oversight Committee announced their testimony on Wednesday, which is scheduled for 1:00 p.m. EST on July 19. Chairman James Comer has led the panel in investigating numerous alleged corruption allegations involving the Biden family as part of a broader GOP inquiry into the first family's dealings.

The unnamed subordinate will participate in the livestreamed event, signaling that the individual will publicly come forward in short order.

"Since taking the gavel in January, the Committee on Oversight and Accountability has made rapid progress in our investigation into the Biden family’s domestic and international business dealings to determine whether these activities compromise U.S. national security and President Biden’s ability to lead with impartiality," Comer said in a statement. "From the thousands of financial records we’ve obtained, we know the Biden family set up over a 20 shell companies, engaged in intentionally complicated financial transactions with foreign adversaries, and made a concerted effort to hide the payments and avoid scrutiny."

Comer further pointed to their prior testimony about the Hunter Biden case and suggested their testimony substantiated the idea of a "two-tiered system of justice that seemingly allows the Biden family to operate above the law."

"This hearing is an opportunity for the American people to hear directly from these credible and brave whistleblowers," he said. "I look forward to their testimony as the Oversight Committee, along with the House Judiciary Committee and Ways and Means Committee, work to deliver transparency and accountability."
