Second IRS Hunter Biden Whistleblower Comes Forward, Gets Threatened With Criminal Prosecution

Bonchie reporting for RedState 

Another IRS whistleblower involving the Hunter Biden investigation has been revealed, and according to a new report, threats of retaliation via criminal prosecution followed.

That revelation comes after the IRS removed the entire investigative team overseeing the Hunter Biden case, which involves allegations of tax fraud and failure to file taxes. That left many with the impression that a full-scale cover-up was in effect. The request to remove the team reportedly came directly from the DOJ, which has continued to inexplicably stall any kind of final decision on whether to prosecute the president’s degenerate son.

What we know so far is that the second IRS whistleblower is a case agent who was working under the first whistleblower, and they are backing up allegations of political intervention in the case. Unfortunately, the second whistleblower’s attempts to reach out to IRS leadership were met with hostility and threats of criminal prosecution.

A second IRS whistleblower has alleged retaliation for raising concerns that Justice Department leadership was “acting inappropriately” on the investigation into Hunter Biden, the Washington Examiner has learned.

The allegations from an IRS case agent come a month after an IRS supervisory special agent revealed to Congress politics had infected the case involving President Joe Biden‘s son.

“Our client learned that one of the agents he supervises — the case agent on the case our client is blowing the whistle on — sent you an email” on Thursday in which the IRS case agent raised concerns about the Hunter Biden investigation, the lawyers wrote in a letter obtained by the Washington Examiner from congressional sources. But IRS leadership quickly responded “with accusations of criminal conduct and warnings to other agents in an apparent attempt to intimidate into silence anyone who might raise similar concerns.”

It’s astonishing that the DOJ and IRS continue to act this way toward the whistleblowers knowing that their retaliation attempts will be made public. That’s sheer hubris on a level that’s hard to fathom, but power, especially government power, does crazy things to people. It’s pretty clear that no one within the Biden administration and the executive agencies it controls has any actual fear of being held accountable. Given that, why wouldn’t they threaten whistleblowers? Who is going to stop them?

I hate to say that, but it’s the reality of the situation. Right now, we have multiple whistleblowers talking about corruption inside the FBI regarding another situation and Democrats are denying they are even whistleblowers because the FBI says they aren’t. Think about how insane that is.

The circling of the wagons extends to the press as well, who have dutifully promoted the FBI’s claim that the whistleblowers were a “security threat.” There’s no actual standard left that’s being followed here. It’s just the pursuit and preservation of pure, unadulterated power on display.

In the end, it’s going to be up to Republicans in the House to see this through. The DOJ and FBI are in on the game, and they’ve got no intention of exposing their own malfeasance. Past that, any Republican who wins in 2024 must make it a priority to rip these agencies to shreds. There is no saving them in their current form.
