Two IRS whistleblowers, special agent Joseph Ziegler and his supervisor Gary Shapley, testified on the ongoing investigation into the Biden family before the House Oversight Committee. The hearing focused on President Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, with the witnesses alleging he committed tax felonies at various times between 2014-19, including evasion and fraud. Under an agreement made with the Trump-appointed U.S. Attorney for Delaware David Weiss, Hunter Biden pleaded guilty to two misdemeanor counts of failing to pay on time more than $200,000 in his 2017-18 taxes. However, the witnesses alleged that Attorney Weiss was not given proper authority and that the Justice Department obstructed the investigation in Mr. Biden’s favor. Democrats dismissed these as well as other accusations made by Republican members--such as the Biden family engaging in influence peddling with foreign nations--disagreeing with the witnesses' interpretations of events and citing a lack of evidence from Republicans
