Press Release

Location: Washington, DC

"IRS whistleblower Gary Shapley's testimony that Secret Service headquarters and the Biden transition team were tipped off is confirmed by a former FBI agent. Shapley and the FBI agent planned to interview Hunter Biden in December 2020, but learned the night before that the Biden transition team was tipped off. They were told to not approach Hunter Biden and wait for his call. That never happened, and they never got to interview Hunter Biden, Tipping off the transition team and not being able to interview Hunter Biden as planned are just a couple of examples that reveal the Justice Department's misconduct in the Biden criminal investigation that occurred under U.S. Attorney Weiss' watch.

The Oversight Committee has no confidence in U.S. Attorney Weiss as Special Counsel given his inability to prevent the Biden transition team from being contacted and federal agents were not permitted to interview Hunter Biden as planned. Under the Weiss-led investigation, investigators were prevented from taking steps that could have led to Joe Biden, the statute of limitations was allowed to run with respect to certain felonies, and the U.S. Attorney's office sought to give Hunter Biden an unprecedented sweetheart plea deal. The House Oversight, Judiciary, and Ways and Means Committees will continue our investigation into the Justice Department's two-tiered system of justice and hold bad actors accountable."
