Ex-FBI Agent Says IRS Whistleblower Was Right, Bidens Were Tipped off During Investigation

A former FBI agent who worked on the investigation into Hunter Biden has corroborated a major claim made by whistleblower and IRS supervisory special agent Gary Shapley.

The unnamed retired FBI supervisory special agent testified to the House Committee on Oversight and Accountability in a closed-door session on July 17. The committee released the 65-page transcript of that testimony on Monday.

The ex-agent backed up allegations made by Shapley that President Joe Biden’s transition team was tipped off about the FBI’s intent to interview Hunter. The agent said he was notified the evening before the date of the expected interview – planned to be held on December 8, 2020 – that the Biden transition team had been warned.

“I was refreshed by the testimony of supervisor No. 2, and I believe he’s correct. I believe I – you know, and now getting into the frame of mind, I know I was upset when I learned about it,” the agent told lawmakers.

Former FBI Agent Says He Was Not Aware of Interference in Hunter Biden Probe

A former FBI agent who helped lead the probe of Hunter Biden told congressional investigators that he was not aware of any political interference in the case, though he said higher-ups blocked an interview with President Joe Biden’s son weeks after the 2020 presidential election, transcripts show.

In transcripts from a July 17 interview with the Republican-controlled House of Representatives Oversight Committee, the unidentified FBI supervisory agent corroborated earlier testimony by an Internal Revenue Service whistleblower that investigators were not allowed to interview Hunter Biden on Dec. 8, 2020, after top Secret Service officials and the Biden transition team were notified of the plan.

The former agent, who retired last year after more than 20 years with the agency, told investigators that he was frustrated over the decision by more senior officials to block the interview but didn’t consider the outcome problematic.

“I wasn’t aware of political interference, personally,” the former agent said.

Republicans pointed to the testimony as evidence that the Justice Department intervened to delay the Hunter Biden probe, even though the events took place while Republican President Donald Trump was in office.

Hunter Biden’s Attorney Says He’s ‘Confident’ First Son Won’t Face New Criminal Charges

A lawyer for Hunter Biden said Friday that he’s confident that the first son won’t face new criminal charges even after Delaware U.S. Attorney David Weiss was named special counsel, arming him with new powers in the investigation.

Defense attorney Chris Clark said he’s unaware of any wrongdoing Hunter Biden committed outside of Delaware and that he is baffled that Mr. Weiss would ask to be named special counsel.

“It is hard to see why [Mr. Weiss] would have proposed such a resolution if there were other offenses he could have successfully prosecuted, and we are aware of none,” Mr. Clark said. “We are confident when all of these maneuverings are at an end my client will have resolution and will be moving on with his life successfully.”

Mr. Clark’s statement comes after Attorney General Merrick Garland announced that he was elevating Mr. Weiss to special counsel to continue his Hunter Biden probe.

It also follows federal prosecutors’ motion Friday asking a judge in Delaware to drop the tax charges against Hunter Biden so they could refile them in California and that the case would likely result in a trial.

Table for Greed: Inside the Secret Restaurant Lair Where Joe Biden Met Hunter’s Cronies

After a half-century working in the “swamp,” Joe Biden knows how to play hide-and-seek.

So when the then vice-president of the United States had clandestine dinner meetings with some of his troubled son Hunter’s cronies, he did so in a very private room at his favorite Washington, DC, restaurant, Café Milano.

According to records found on Hunter Biden’s laptop, a dinner with Vadym Pozharskyi, an executive of the Ukrainian energy company Burisma, took place in the restaurant’s Garden Room in April of 2015.

The Bidens are also said to have met with Kazakh oligarch Kenes Rakishev and former Kazakhstan prime minister Karim Massimov at Milano.

A source told The Post that Biden, who usually eats at Table 100, has also used the pricey Italian eatery’s private Wine Room on the second floor. (Read more from “Table for Greed: Inside the Secret Restaurant Lair Where Joe Biden Met Hunter’s Cronies” HERE)

Hunter Biden’s ‘Sugar Brother’ Attorney Could Be on the Hook Next

Entanglements with President Joe Biden’s embattled son Hunter Biden could potentially bring down high-powered California attorney Kevin Morris — who was recently spotted reportedly smoking a bong on the balcony of his Malibu home.

Morris, a longtime Democrat donor who was best known for throwing money around in Hollywood — helping to broker a licensing deal for “South Park,” among other things — has been linked to Hunter Biden since 2019 in what the New York Post called “more of a bromance than an attorney-client relationship.”

According to the Post’s report, Morris earned a reputation as Hunter’s “Sugar Brother” — in addition to allegedly acting as a “fixer” for the president’s son, Morris may have assisted in marketing and selling some of his paintings and reportedly loaned him the money when he needed to pay back $2 million in federal tax debt.

But his relationship with the younger Biden could potentially get him into trouble with the California State Bar. (Read more from “Hunter Biden’s ‘Sugar Brother’ Attorney Could Be on the Hook Next” HERE)

Facebook Docs Reveal FBI Agent Made ‘Completely False’ Congressional Statements Involving Hunter Biden Laptop, Jordan Says

An FBI agent made “completely false” statements during a congressional deposition about the agency’s role in suppressing the Hunter Biden laptop story on social media platforms, Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) said on Monday in his fourth edition of the “Facebook Files.”

Jordan, who chairs the House Judiciary Committee, said internal Facebook communications reveal San Francisco-based FBI Special Agent Elvis Chan was “the main conduit” between the bureau’s Foreign Influence Task Force and big tech companies to suppress the scandalous story involving alleged foreign business deals with then-presidential candidate Joe Biden just weeks before the 2020 election.

Chan told lawmakers during testimony the FBI had not communicated with Facebook outside of a meeting that occurred the same day the New York Post published the Biden laptop article on October 14, 2020. But according to the Jordan, Chan was involved in a “secret ‘follow up’ call” with the social media giant the next day, allegedly contradicting a claim he made during a November 2022 deposition in the government censorship case Missouri v. Biden

The federal agent also spoke with a Facebook employee that same day, who said, “Chan advised that he was up to speed on the current state of the matter within the FBI.” Chan also told the social media platform that “there was no current evidence to suggest any foreign connection … of the leaks,” according to the documents released by Jordan.

Devon Archer: ‘Impactful’ Joe Biden Calling Into Meetings With Hunter’s Foreign Business Associates Was ‘Abuse of Soft Power’

By New York Post. First son Hunter Biden’s former business partner Devon Archer says President Biden calling into business meetings with his son’s foreign associates was both “prize enough” by demonstrating the first son’s pull with his dad and “an abuse of soft power.” . . .

“I don’t know if it was an orchestrated call-in or not. It certainly was powerful, though, because you’re sitting with a foreign businessperson and you hear the vice president’s voice, that’s prize enough,” Archer said. “I mean, that’s pretty impactful stuff for anyone in the world.”

“You understand DC, right?” the former Burisma Holdings board member told Carlson. “So the power to have that access and that conversation, and it’s not in a scheduled conference call and it’s a part of your family — that’s like the pinnacle of power in DC.”

“In the rear view, it’s an abuse of soft power, I’d say,” Archer added.

Archer and Hunter Biden courted prominent businesspeople in countries where Joe Biden held sway while Barack Obama’s No. 2, including China, Russia and Ukraine.

Biden recognized his seventh grandchild – having previously insisted he only had six – for the first time in a statement Friday. Biden now reportedly wants to meet Navy in person in an effort to dissipate rumors that he was ignoring her existence, according to people who spoke to NBC News.

It is currently unclear when and where the visit will take place, NBC reported. It is also unclear whether Navy’s mother and father, Hunter Biden and Lunden Roberts, will be in attendance.

Hunter Biden has reportedly never met his daughter, who was born in 2018. Biden reportedly waited to acknowledge Navy until he got the go-ahead from Hunter Biden, according to NBC.
