I was kind of disappointed\u2064 that \u200dthe other side of \u200cthe aisle didn&#8217;t\u200c care about what we came there\u200c to say,&#8221; Ziegler said. &#8220;That&#8217;s the thing\u200d that struck me the most\u200d from yesterday is that it\u200b seemed like there \u2063were\u200d certain people that really didn&#8217;t care we had to present \u2062it\u2063 to Congress, and that disappointed me.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Kelly pointed out that Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene\u2064 (R-GA) presented photos from Hunter Biden&#8217;s \u200blaptop \u200cof himself engaging \u200din sex acts. Rep. Shontel Brown (D-OH) \u2064addressed the pair \u200dwith questions about black people being audited by the IRS more often than nonblack people.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;Being in this hearing yesterday, \u200dI thought \u200cthat there were\u200d good questions from both\u200d sides and there \u200bwere unfair questions from \u200cboth sides. Also, there\u2062 were opportunities where \u2063I was asked a question, and I \u2063just wasn&#8217;t allowed to \u2064finish,&#8221; said Shapley, who identified himself as a conservative. \u2062&#8221;I guess it&#8217;s just business \u200das usual there. I just took it\u200b with a grain \u200dof \u200csalt \u2062and focused on the facts. At the end of the day, they just couldn&#8217;t attack the facts \u200cbecause they can&#8217;t take\u200b the facts.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\">Click here<\/a> to read more from\u2062 The Washington\u200b Examiner.<\/p>\n<p>In the \u2062days leading up to the hearing, Ziegler chose to remain anonymous. He admitted to Kelly that he did not vote \u2064for Biden due to his knowledge about Biden&#8217;s family, \u2063anticipating \u2062that he could be\u2062 questioned about his \u200cvote \u2064if the issue went to trial.<\/p>\n<p>Shapley, on the other hand, assured that\u200d he had never contributed to a campaign\u200c or displayed a political sign \u2064on his lawn.\u200b When <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/supplier-of-luxury-armored-vehicles-for-politicians-killed-in-northern-mexico\/\" title=\"Supplier of Luxury Armored Vehicles for Politicians Killed in Northern Mexico\">news outlets revealed<\/a> his identity and political ideology, he claimed that his mother was unaware of his Republican registration.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>IRS agents Gary Shapley and Joe Ziegler expressed disappointment after their House Oversight and Reform Committee hearing.
