IRS whistleblower Gary Shapley’s testimony about the Justice Department’s interference in the investigation of Hunter Biden rocked Washington.
House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer is running his own probe into Joe Biden’s corruption.
And now James Comer made a surprising announcement about Hunter Biden.
Shapley testified to the worst abuse of power by any administration in recent memory.
The bombshell testimony to the House Ways and Means Committee confirmed that Joe Biden weaponized the government for his own political benefit.
Shapley recounted how the Biden Justice Department intervened to prevent U.S. Attorney David Weiss from hitting Hunter Biden with felony tax evasion charges based on allegations that Biden did not pay tax on over $100,000 in income after falsely deducting encounters with prostitutes and sessions at sex clubs as business expenses and golf memberships.
Americans also learned that the Justice Department repeatedly covered up Joe Biden’s involvement in Hunter Biden’s business dealings by preventing investigators from questioning witnesses about who the “big guy” was in Hunter Biden’s infamous email where he and his partners needed to hold “10 percent for the big guy” in a proposed deal with a Chinese Communist Party-linked energy company.
The FBI also hid from investigators the FD-1023 form which detailed allegations from a credible confidential human source that an executive at the Ukrainian energy company Burisma paid then-Vice President Joe Biden a $5 million bribe.
Shapley’s revelations led to a chorus of calls by Republicans for a special counsel to not only investigate Joe and Hunter Biden, but also to probe Attorney General Merrick Garland for obstruction of justice and lying to Congress when he testified there was no political interference in the Hunter Biden investigation.
Oversight Committee Chairman Comer rejected those calls.
Comer explained that Garland is too corrupt to be trusted to pick a prosecutor to investigate the Bidens and himself.
Chairman Comer slammed Garland for his “lies” and said any Garland-sanctioned investigation would be a whitewash whereas his committee is perfectly capable of holding Joe and Hunter Biden, as well as Attorney General Garland, to account.
“The House Oversight Committee has found and shared with the public in five months what the Justice Department and FBI have kept secret for five years, so I think we’re moving right along,” Comer told Fox News Digital.
“I strongly oppose the appointment of a special counsel,” Comer continued. “I think that’s the most ridiculous idea that any Republican could think right now because, if you support a special counsel, you support and trust Merrick Garland to have the sole authority to pick one person who can then take over the investigation and never have to be transparent with the media or Congress until the conclusion of the investigation, which might take years.”
“I trust the House Oversight Committee to be the one and only entity leading this investigation,” Comer added. “And we’ve already proven we can find all of this stuff in five months that took the government five years to find.”
