IRS supervisor: Biden administration mishandling Hunter Biden investigation
BY JARED GANS 04/20/23 11:29 AM ET
Correction: The possible whistleblower is a current IRS supervisor. An earlier headline on this article contained incorrect information.
A possible whistleblower is accusing the Biden administration of mishandling the investigation into potential tax crimes related to Hunter Biden and is seeking protections to testify before Congress.
Mark Lytle, an attorney for a supervisor for the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), sent Congress a letter, obtained by The Hill, on Wednesday that they have information that contradicts sworn testimony that a senior political appointee gave to Congress. It does not name the official.
The letter does not specifically name Hunter Biden, but states that the IRS agent has been overseeing the ongoing investigation into a “high-profile, controversial subject” since early 2020.
And it accuses the administration of “failure” to mitigate clear conflicts of interest in the case and details instances of preferential treatment and politics improperly affecting decisions and protocols.
“Despite serious risks of retaliation, my client is offering to provide you with information necessary to exercise your constitutional oversight function and wishes to make the disclosures in a non-partisan manner to the leadership of the relevant committees on both sides of the political aisle,” the letter states.
The Wall Street Journal first reported on the letter.
The Journal reported that people familiar with the matter said the investigation mentioned in the letter refers to the one into Hunter Biden, and ABC News reported that lawmakers have been made aware that Biden is the subject referenced.
