LISTEN HERE:
The Internal Revenue Service has been rocked by the revelation of alleged mishandling and political interference in the criminal probe into Hunter Biden. The man at the center of the scandal is Gary Shapley, a 14-year veteran of the Internal Revenue Service who is now the whistleblower who has gone public for the first time. He spoke to CBS Evening News and outlined the multiple slow-walking steps that were directed at the Department of Justice. Shapley explained that when he took control of the investigation, he was shocked to see deviations from the normal investigative process. He further revealed that over the years, the investigation process was manipulated, and he believes the DOJ may have acted unethically.
The investigation being carried out is a high-profile and controversial one, overseeing Hunter Biden’s case. The son of Joe Biden was earlier being probed by federal prosecutors for alleged tax crimes and false statements. Shapley has raised a red flag about the irregularities in the case during the summer of 2020. He has further expressed his concerns under the Biden administration, proving the investigation was headed in a new direction, and not being carried out by the book. Shapley clarified that he is not a political person and has no interest in political agendas. His oath of office is to treat everybody fairly that is being investigated.
For years, US attorneys general have investigated Hunter Biden and considered introducing charges. But none have been filed so far. Now, Gary Shapley’s revelation about Hunter Biden’s investigation may change things. Shapley’s legal team was hoping he would speak with the House and Senate committees. However, that did not materialize. He did have a meeting lined up with the Senate Finance Committee; however, according to Ryan Carey, a spokesman for Senate Finance Chair Ron Wyden, the whistleblower’s team backed out of the meeting. Wyden’s team remains open to conducting an investigation should the whistleblower decide to testify.
Shapley’s revelation has sparked outrage and concerns about the ways the DOJ operates in this scenario. They appear to be manipulating the system and the investigation to suit their purposes, and Shapley’s remarks have confirmed this. It highlights how hunter Biden could be receiving preferential treatment because he is the son of the sitting president.
As a 14 year veteran of the Internal Revenue Service, a career civil servant who has worked under both the Trump and Biden administration, Shapley is credible and has no political affiliations. He is saying concerns he had were expressed during the previous administration but didn’t go beyond that before being aired after the current administration’s inauguration when he still witnessed similar conduct.
Shapley is straightforward in his remarks, pointing out that his primary responsibility is to ensure that everybody is treated fairly during the investigation. In doing so, he is revealing that the Biden administration could be violating norms to ensure that Hunter Biden receives a fair investigation.
The revelation that the Department of Justice might be acting unethically and deviating from the normal procedures of its investigation is one that will anger conservatives. It plays into the narrative that the Biden administration is not interested in upholding the same standards as its previous administration, particularly when it comes to members of the president’s family.
The fact that the investigation into Hunter Biden has been in progress for several years and across three attorneys general, only to produce no tangible charges, will further anger conservatives. They will take this as evidence that Hunter Biden is receiving preferential treatment because of his father’s political status, a fact that will surely poke the bear of conservative groups.
The length of time that the DOJ has taken to investigate Hunter Biden is a major bone of contention to right-wing groups. It is evidence, they say, that the DOJ is treating the investigation with kid gloves and doing everything to protect the vice-president’s son. While this may be conjecture, this serves to confirm for conservatives that there is something to hide and there are irregularities that require further investigation and public revelation.
Gary Shapley’s revelations about Hunter Biden’s investigation have thrown open a can of worms for the Department of Justice. Now that the information is public, it has added much momentum to investigations, which were previously ignored or swept under the rug. Shapley’s honesty and bravery are commendable, and his actions to ensure that the investigation remains free and impartial will make him a hero to many.
Shapley’s allegations of ethics violations and manipulative investigation practices regarding Hunter Biden’s case will add fuel to critics of the Biden administration. While many have been supportive of the president, the allegations that his son’s investigation might have been manipulated will cause significant damage to the administration and its political fortunes. It raises questions about the depths to which Hunter Biden’s investigation was manipulated and the participation of the administration in that regard.
The fact that the whistleblower declined to appear before the Senate Congressional Committee will raise suspicions in conservative quarters. They will see this as evidence of the Biden Administration’s deep-seated desire to hide something. And while there is no evidence of any such motives, there is a clear feeling among conservatives that the Biden administration operates on a different set of guidelines than its predecessors.
Hunter Biden’s case has been followed by the media and the public alike. The revelations that have come out through Shapley will certainly be another turning point in this high-profile case. It highlights how the DOJ is always surrounded by the accusations of bias, corruption, and other issues.
It is too early to predict what Shapley’s revelations will mean for Hunter Biden. But what is clear is that the insights Shapley has provided, combined with the ongoing investigation against him, is creating a narrative that could harm him and his reputation.
The Biden administration had pledged to be transparent and ethical in its dealings. This revelation about manipulating the investigation of Hunter Biden’s case will shake people’s confidence in the president’s administration. The DOJ must investigate the accusations and put the matter to rest to restore people’s confidence in it.
The Gary Shapley story will be one to watch in the coming weeks. It is a major story, and with the ramifications it could have for the Biden administration, its repercussions will be felt across the political landscape. Only time will tell what comes of it, but Shapley’s bravery and his decision to come out and speak the truth will surely inspire others to follow his example.
