IRS Whistleblower’s Shocking Response on Joe Biden’s Gain from Son’s Business Deals
IRS special agent Joseph Ziegler, a whistleblower who testified before Congress on Wednesday, said in an interview this week that he faced numerous roadblocks during his investigation into President Joe Biden’s son, Hunter.
CBS News reporter Catherine Herridge asked Ziegler, “Did you uncover evidence that President Biden financially benefited from his son’s deals?”
“I don’t feel comfortable answering that question,” Ziegler responded. “Any time we potentially wanted to go down the road of asking questions related to the president, it was, ‘That’s gonna take too much approvals, we can’t ask those questions.’ And I mean, it created an environment that was very hard to deal with.”
Ziegler said that the response he would get when he tried to press the issue was, “Let’s put that on the back burner.”

Ziegler emphasized that the key question is, “Are we treating everyone the same? Are we treating all taxpayers equally?”
“And in this case, no, I don’t think so,” he stated.

Ziegler expressed his desire to interview Hunter Biden’s adult children, as many of the business deductions and expenses were related to them.
When asked if he received approval to proceed, he replied, “We never received the approvals to talk to those people” because an Assistant U.S. Attorney warned that doing so would get them “into hot water.”
“Is that in the IRS handbook, avoiding hot water?” Herridge questioned.
“No, but I mean, I was asking to do these certain things and roadblock after roadblock was put up in front of me,” he explained.
