House Republicans are probing concerns that the Department of Justice (DOJ) may be hampering an investigation by the Office of the Inspector General (OIG) into whistleblower disclosures regarding the tax investigation of Hunter Biden.
Earlier this year, House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Jason Smith (R-Mo.) revealed whistleblower testimony from Internal Revenue Service (IRS) investigators Gary Shapley and Joseph Ziegler claiming that the DOJ and IRS had sought to slow-walk and protect Mr. Biden, the president’s son, during an investigation into millions of dollars in foreign income that he failed to report.
