The findings aim to satisfy the third prong of the impeachment inquiry ordered<\/a> by former Speaker of\u2062 the House Kevin McCarthy\u2063 in September, \u200cwhich asked if the Biden administration did anything to \u201cslow, hamper, or otherwise impede\u2062 the criminal investigation of the President\u2019s son,\u2062 Hunter \u200bBiden, which involves funds received by the Biden family \u2064from foreign sources.\u201d<\/h2>\n
The committees determined from evidence and \u2063the testimonies of 10 federal officials\u200d including\u2064 Weiss\u200c that \u2062both the\u200d DOJ \u2062and FBI hampered the criminal tax investigation of Hunter by interfering with IRS agents\u2019 \u200dinvestigative protocol, cluing in the younger Biden to a surprise IRS\u2063 interview in December 2020, and allowing the statute of limitations\u200b to expire \u201con the most \u2064serious\u200d potential charges.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThese unusual\u2014and oftentimes in \u2063the \u200cview \u2064of \u2063witnesses, unprecedented\u2014tactics conflicted with standard operating procedures and ultimately had \u2064the effect of benefiting Hunter Biden,\u201d<\/strong> the congressional investigators found<\/a>. \u200b <\/p>\n
<\/div>\n
The report\u2019s findings corroborate \u200btestimony from several IRS whistleblowers who warned<\/a> that the DOJ deliberately choked their investigation \u200dand charging recommendations \u200dfor Hunter Biden because it didn\u2019t want to damage Biden\u2019s presidential chances.<\/a> <\/p>\n
\u201cSeveral witnesses acknowledged\u2063 the delicate approach\u2062 used\u2062 during the Hunter Biden case, describing the investigation as \u2018sensitive\u2019 or \u2018significant,\u2019\u201d<\/strong> the report notes. <\/p>\n
At the time, Weiss denied the DOJ\u2019s meddling and claimed to have \u201cultimate authority\u201d over\u2064 the investigation. Weiss later declared \u2062that \u200dhis charging authority \u201cis geographically limited to my home district.\u201d<\/p>\n
Despite previous insistence under oath<\/a> that Weiss possessed all of the authority he needed to properly charge Hunter, Attorney General Merrick Garland slyly\u200c admitted <\/a>in a September congressional hearing that was not true.\u200b <\/p>\n
<\/div>\n
Biden\u2063 Justice \u200bDepartment officials\u200b told congressional investigators that Weiss could \u200cnot bring charges without first getting the stamp of approval from other U.S. Attorneys and the Biden Justice Department\u2019s Tax\u200c Division. \u200dIt was \u201cBiden Administration \u200bpolitical \u200cappointees\u201d who \u201cexercised \u200dsignificant oversight and control over the investigation,\u201d not Weiss, the committees found. <\/p>\n
Documents suggest\u200b Hunter should have been charged with several tax felonies and misdemeanors for ev <\/p>\n
How did the DOJ attempt to cover up their favoritism towards Hunter Biden, according to the report?<\/h2>\n
That the DOJ obstructed the investigation\u200b into Hunter Biden to protect \u2063Joe\u200c Biden.\u200b The whistleblowers\u2062 alleged that they\u200d were instructed to ignore evidence and were met with \u200bresistance when they tried to pursue the case. <\/a><\/p>\n
The report also \u2062highlights the DOJ\u2019s attempts to cover \u2064up their favoritism \u200dtowards Hunter Biden.\u2064 The investigators discovered \u200dthat text messages\u200d and emails were altered or deliberately withheld, and \u2062key witnesses were\u2063 either not interviewed or their testimonies were misrepresented. These actions further demonstrate the Department\u2019s dedication to protecting the Bidens at all \u200dcosts.<\/p>\n
This latest revelation adds<\/a> to the \u2063growing list of\u200c concerns regarding the integrity and transparency of the Biden Justice Department. As the report states, it exemplifies the\u200c existence\u2062 of a two-tiered justice system, where those with\u2063 connections and influence receive special treatment, while \u200cothers face the full force\u200c of the law.<\/p>\n
The report\u2019s release comes at \u200ca critical time, as the impeachment inquiry into President Biden \u200bmoves forward. It raises serious questions about the extent to which the\u2062 administration interfered \u200dwith the investigation into Hunter Biden\u2019s \u2063alleged crimes, and whether they\u2064 sought to\u2063 impede \u200cjustice for political \u2064gain.<\/p>\n
It is crucial for the \u2063American people to have faith in the justice system and believe that all individuals, regardless of their political affiliations or family ties, will be held accountable\u200d for their actions. The findings of this report only further erode that trust and reinforce the urgent need for transparency and accountability within the Department of Justice.<\/p>\n
As the \u2062investigation into Hunter \u2062Biden\u2019s alleged crimes continues, it is imperative \u200cthat the\u200d Department of Justice operates with complete impartiality and without any external influence. The \u2064American\u200d people deserve\u2062 nothing less\u200c than a fair and thorough\u2063 examination of the facts, free from political interference.<\/p>\n
The\u2063 release of \u2064this report should\u2064 serve as a \u200dwake-up call to all Americans who value the principles of \u200djustice \u200band equality before the law. It is a reminder that no one\u200d is above the\u200b law, \u200band that the pursuit of truth and justice must always be prioritized over\u2063 political considerations. Only by holding\u2063 our government accountable can we ensure a just and fair society.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
