Jim Jordan Demands Info To Be Removed From Hunter Biden Case

May 27, 2023

House Judiciary Committee chairman Representative Jim Jordan of Ohio demanded that information from the Department of Justice on the IRS whistleblower be removed from the Hunter Biden case.

"Jordan demanded documents from the Justice Department regarding allegations that the department retaliated against an IRS whistleblower investigating Hunter Biden," reported Breitbart.

Jordan told Attorney General Merrick Garland that he is seeking information about the removal of an "IRS Criminal Supervisory Special Agent and investigative team" from a "high-profile, controversial ongoing investigation."

"The timing of the Department’s removal of the agent and investigative team raises serious concerns given that the investigation was the subject of the agent’s protected whistleblower disclosure," Jordan said in his letter.

"The letter comes in response to attorneys for the supervisory special agent, who later revealed his identity in a CBS interview as 14-year IRS veteran Gary Shapley, asking Congress to investigate Shapley’s removal from the case as potential unlawful whistleblower retaliation," reported Breitbart.

Shapley said that he had been assigned to a "high-profile investigation" in January 2020. A source told Breitbart News that the investigation is related to a years-long federal probe into Hunter Biden's taxes.
