The IRS has removed a whistleblower and his team from a criminal investigation into Hunter Biden’s taxes and business dealings at the request of the Department of Justice, according to the whistleblower’s attorneys.

“Today, the [IRS] Criminal Supervisory Special Agent we represent was informed that he and his entire investigative team are being removed from the ongoing and sensitive investigation of the high-profile, controversial subject about which our client sought to make whistleblower disclosures to Congress,” the whistleblower’s lawyers said in a May 15 letter (pdf) addressed to multiple congressional lawmakers, first obtained by Just the News.
