🚨🚨 Whether you think the gun charge conviction today is just a red herring or not, just remember that none of the government’s shenanigans would have been exposed were it not for IRS whistleblowers Gary Shapley and Joseph Ziegler.
Before their disclosures, Biden appointees had talked David Weiss out of charging the President’s son, and all cases related to Hunter Biden (with THESE facts, now on display to the world!!) were languishing with no charges at all. Weiss had allowed the statute of limitations to lapse on the most serious charges, Hunter Biden engaging in a scheme to hide his foreign income from Burisma in 2014 and 2015—money that raised serious questions about just what he (and his family) did to earn it.
Once U.S. Attorney Weiss’s office knew the IRS whistleblowers were making disclosures to Congress, AUSA Lesley Wolf tried to contain the damage by offering Hunter Biden an agreement requiring no guilty plea. That was so ludicrous on its face Weiss made Wolf go back and at least require a misdemeanor guilty plea—the sweetheart plea deal DOJ rushed out to beat the House’s release of the IRS whistleblower interview transcripts. But thanks to those transcripts being provided to Judge Noreika, she saw right through DOJ’s charade to sweep this under the rug with Hunter Biden.
Today’s verdict wouldn’t have happened without the IRS whistleblowers, but it was for a fairly straightforward but relatively minor charge. The whistleblowers disclosed far more significant crimes the IRS and DOJ had once agreed to charge Hunter Biden with. They also provided documents to the House showing how Hunter Biden’s testimony to Congress was contradicted by the facts. All eyes should now be on David Weiss to see whether he follows through with the tax felony trial and whether he acts on the House’s perjury referral.
