A whistleblower within the IRS alleges “clear conflicts of interest” in the investigation into Hunter Biden’s business dealings by the Biden administration.
“My client wants to come forward to Congress,” said attorney Mark Lytle, who is representing the IRS agent, according to CBS News. “He’s ready to be questioned about what he knows and what he experienced under the proper legal protections.”
Hunter Biden has been under federal investigation by a federal grand jury in Delaware since at least 2018, according to PBS. Hunter Biden said he first learned of the investigation in 2020, according to NBC News.
“It’s deeply concerning that the Biden Administration may be obstructing justice by blocking efforts to charge Hunter Biden for tax violations,” House Committee on Oversight and Accountability Chairman James Comer (R-KY) told Fox News.
The House Committee announced it identified six more family members who may have benefited from the Biden family business, Comer claimed in a press release.
“The House Committee on Oversight and Accountability has been following the Bidens’ tangled web of complex corporate and financial records. It’s clear from our investigation that Hunter and other members of the Biden family engaged in deceptive, shady business schemes to avoid scrutiny as they made millions from foreign adversaries like China,” Comer said, per Fox News.
“The House Oversight Committee will work to hold accountable anyone in the Biden Administration who may be covering up this criminal activity. The Oversight Committee will also continue to pursue our investigation into the Biden family’s business schemes to determine if President Biden and our national security are compromised. Americans demand answers, transparency, and accountability,” Comer continued.
Last year, the New York Post reported that Hunter Biden took in around $11 million from his business dealings while his father served as vice president.
Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) asked Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen to release the suspicious activity reports (SARS) found on the Biden family’s tax records, according to Fox News.
Comer alleged that the Biden family has “racked up at least 150 suspicious activity reports.”
“The U.S. Department of Treasury needs to release every single suspicious activity report on the Biden family,” Cruz said, per Fox News. “Janet Yellen, you have a choice: You are either actively covering up potential evidence of corruption or releasing every one of them to the American people.”
Cruz believes it is up to the public to decide whether the Bidens’ family business dealings were legitimate.
“If this is benign, release the reports,” Cruz added.
No member of the Biden family has been charged with any crime relating to the SARS, Fox News reported.
