A Fourth IRS Whistleblower Confirms That David Weiss Slow-Rolled the Hunter Biden Prosecutions
Specifically, he confirms that when David Weiss asked -- asked, not instructed, as he was not a Special Counsel and could only beg for cooperation -- prosecutors in DC and California to prosecute Hunter for the tax evasion he committed in those jurisdictions, they refused, and David Weiss allowed the statute of limitations to run.
Without ever demanding Special Counsel status, which would have given him the power to bring charges on his own, without having to beg Biden's hand-picked DC and California prosecutors for help.
IRS agent Darrell Waldon echoed IRS whistleblower Gary Shapley's testimony that prosecutors in Washington, DC, and California previously blocked now-special counsel David Weiss from charging Hunter Biden in those jurisdictions.
"Mr. Weiss went to the U.S. Attorney's Office -- I can't recall the dates -- and they did not agree to prosecute the case in D.C.," Waldon told the House Ways and Means Committee during a transcribed interview in September, the Washington Examiner reported.
"I'm aware that it was presented to the District of Columbia and, at some point, the Central District of California, I believe," he added.
...
As the investigation progressed, Weiss never charged Hunter Biden in the jurisdictions of Washington, DC, or California. Instead, he formed a sweetheart plea agreement with Hunter Biden that collapsed in July under judicial scrutiny. Shapley's testimony in April reportedly triggered the plea deal, filed in Delaware....
The recent testimony by Waldon, who was Shapley's boss, is notable because Attorney General Merrick Garland testified Wednesday that nobody had the authority to block Weiss from charging Hunter Biden, though "they could refuse to partner with him."
"You said [Weiss] had complete authority, but he'd already been turned down. He wanted to bring an action in D.C. and the US Attorney there said, 'No, you can't' -- and then you go tell the U.S. Senate, under oath, that he has complete authority?" House Oversight Committee Chair Jim Jordan (R-OH) asked.
"No one had the authority to turn him down; they could refuse to partner with him." Garland replied.
"You can use whatever language -- 'refuse to partner' is turning down," Jordan replied.
"It is not the same under a well-known Justice Department practice," Garland claimed.
Perjurious scumbag caporegime.
I wonder if NeverTrump is still proud to have so vigorously supported Biden as an "honorable" man who would Restore Our Precious Democracy.
