Well, dear reader, you shouldn’t at all be surprised by the latest allegations from an IRS whistleblower about the Hunter Biden investigation.
Yesterday, news broke that a supervisory special agent in the IRS is seeking whistleblower protections so they can divulge what’s really going on behind the scenes.
As you may have guessed, it’s being alleged that, rather than a true, vigorous investigation, the President’s son Hunter is being protected by federal bureaucrats.
On the bright side, it seems the news woke a few Republicans up from their naps.

Hunter Biden Investigation Being Sabotaged?
The whistleblower has made several claims, all of which point to shenanigans and favoritism.
Jerry Dunleavy at the Washington Examiner reports that the whistleblower claims they can prove a senior IRS official lied under oath about the investigation, and that the entire enterprise is chock full of conflicts of interest.
The attorney for the whistleblower, Mark Lytle, said, “examples of preferential treatment and politics improperly infecting decisions and protocols that would normally be followed by career law enforcement professionals in similar circumstances if the subject were not politically connected.”
Sound like what we’ve seen so far? It sure does.
Readers may recall that Hunter Biden is being investigated for his business dealings with Ukraine and China – IRS involvement obviously points to tax issues.
There’s also the matter of the younger Biden allegedly lying on a firearms background check about his drug use.
Now, setting aside the FBI and CIA, the IRS are known as some of those most vicious bastards on the planet. When they get their hooks in you, they don’t let go.
Just ask Al Capone.
But Al Capone’s daddy wasn’t the President and he did his business in the good ol’ U.S. of A.
House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer told Fox News:
“The House Committee on Oversight and Accountability has been following the Bidens’ tangled web of complex corporate and financial records. It’s clear from our investigation that Hunter and other members of the Biden family engaged in deceptive, shady business schemes to avoid scrutiny as they made millions from foreign adversaries like China,” he said. “We’ve been wondering all along where the heck the DOJ and the IRS have been. Now it appears the Biden Administration may have been working overtime to prevent the Bidens from facing any consequences.
“The House Oversight Committee will work to hold accountable anyone in the Biden Administration who may be covering up this criminal activity. The Oversight Committee will also continue to pursue our investigation into the Biden family’s business schemes to determine if President Biden and our national security are compromised. Americans demand answers, transparency, and accountability.”

Here’s The Deal
At the risk of giving the “fact-checkers” a hernia, I’m going to give you my opinion on what is really going on.
It doesn’t matter that Hunter Biden is the sitting President’s son. Hell, it doesn’t even matter that the subject of the investigation is a Democrat.
Obviously, in this country at this time, Democrats are going to get preferential treatment from Big Brother. Most people understand that.
They don’t really understand two things.
The extent to which our institutions are captured. You may think you realize the depth of the problem, but do you? Take a look at an electoral map of the last two presidential elections, and look at the results in D.C. and the surrounding Beltway counties. D.C. voted over 90% for both Hillary and Biden. Read that again. OVER 90%. 20th Century dictators barely had the guts to claim 90% of the vote. But all those lovely bureaucrats who control the levers of power… where do you think they live?
This isn’t about Hunter Biden. Or the subject being a Democrat. It’s about Ukraine. For at least the last two decades, foreign policy has been the crucial factor for the permanent government uniparty. And today’s crusade du jour is Ukraine. Power doesn’t care about the President’s ne’er-do-well crackhead son. But they most certainly care about war. The faltering Ukraine effort doesn’t need the stink of such pedestrian scandals as a few million bucks to the President’s son.
My best guess is that the most punishment Hunter Biden would conceivably get is an ankle bracelet, if they don’t just quietly drop the case completely.
And of course, the whistleblower will likely have 20-30 “journalists” diligently digging into his background and poking holes in his narrative, rather than actually looking into Hunter Biden.
In collapsing empires, the wicked are protected and the just are destroyed.
Now is the time to support and share the sources you trust.
