A former acting attorney general said Thursday he had “never seen a case” handled the way Hunter Biden’s was, and that the Justice Department “slow-walked” the investigation.
The Justice Department announced Tuesday that Biden would plead guilty to two misdemeanor tax charges, while a felony charge of lying on the form filled out when purchasing a firearm would be addressed via a pre-trial diversion program. Republicans on the House Ways and Means Committee released transcripts of depositions from Internal Revenue Service whistleblowers who said Attorney General Merrick Garland and IRS Commissioner Danny Werfel lied to Congress about the Hunter Biden probe Thursday.
“I have never seen a case like this where members of the investigative team cry foul and say this is not the way the crime should have been investigated and we were prevented from doing our job,” former acting Attorney General Matthew Whitaker told “Fox News Tonight” host Kayleigh McEnany.

“The example of the two-tiered system of justice is really the individuals, it’s not the celebrities. You know, we have heard their names but it’s the individuals whose names you will never know who went to prison for similar crimes,” Whitaker said. “Remember, this investigation was managed very carefully from Main Justice, it appears, with really preventing investigators from looking at real evidence from getting behind where this money came from.”
“It was slow-walked and delayed until finally most of the money Hunter made from these illegal business deals from this influence peddling were past the statute of limitations for the tax crimes,” Whitaker said.

Republican Sen. Charles Grassley of Iowa said during a June 12 speech on the Senate floor that recordings of then-Vice President Joe Biden and Hunter Biden related to a bribery allegation exist.
“This is a very strange case the way it is being handled,” Whitaker said.

IMPORTANT NOTE: It’s hard to believe it’s really happening, but it is. Male athletes pretend to be females, dominate their sports, and are thereby rapidly destroying women’s competitive sports worldwide. Convicted male criminals suddenly claim to be transgender so they can be confined in a women’s prison and sexually abuse the female inmates there. Men claiming to be female likewise invade women’s locker rooms, bathrooms, schools, dormitories, sororities, shelters, spas and social organizations – and in the process steal women’s scholarships, advancement, honors and myriad other opportunities.
Meanwhile, transgender groomers and recruiters in schools and on social media platforms like TikTok are continually feeding and expanding the current “mass hysteria” craze that has already led countless teen girls to take testosterone and undergo double mastectomies in a pathetic effort to become boys. No wonder the CDC reports 3 in 5 teen girls say they feel “persistently sad or hopeless” and almost 1 in 3 say they have seriously considered committing suicide.
All of this on top of the radical left’s renewed obsession with killing women’s unborn babies via abortion.
The “woke” left’s maniacal attack on women and girls, virtually unreported by the rest of the media, is the entire focus of the sensational June issue of WND’s critically acclaimed WHISTLEBLOWER magazine, titled “THE LEFT’S TOTAL WAR ON WOMEN.” WHISTLEBLOWER is available in both the popular print edition and a state-of-the-art digital version, either single issues or discounted annual subscriptions.
